I was thrilled when I was chosen to review a DQ cake and given a gift certificate for a free cake. What a treat!

I haven't had a ice cream cake in years so I was so excited to go online and find which one I wanted to get. It actually worked out perfectly that we were celebrating my mother-in-laws birthday this past weekend. I went online and decided that we'd go for a Blizzard cake. It was hard to choose because there are so many but I chose the Turtle Pecan Blizzard cake and had them write Happy Birthday ontop of the cake.

Ordering the cake was very simple. It was a easy guided process of all the decisions you'd need to make. The only thing I didn't like was that there was a 3 day time frame that'd you had to order the cake before hand. I had called the location that was closest to me (who were so helpful and nice) and they told me that I wouldn't have a problem (thankfully).

Picking up the cake was a breeze. I just had to present my gift card that was sent to me by Chickadvisor. The taste of the cake was good and everyone at the party loved it. Its such a treat to get an ice cream cake! I personally thought they were a bit skimpy on the fudge part in the centre of the cake and when you cut into the cake it separate the top and the bottom layer. But overall it was very yummy.

I was excited to be chosen to review the DQ online ordering system and, more importantly, a DQ ice cream cake. Originally, when I was chosen, I had planned on ordering my cake as a welcome home event for a family member. After much deliberation, I decided that it was a better idea to order the cake and not share it with anyone, with the exception of my boyfriend. Obviously, I was not thinking with my waistline – but still, no regrets!

I found there to be a vast amount of cake options available from the DQ location I chose (but it varies between locations) and was almost overwhelmed with making a choice! However, the online system was extremely easy to navigate, and I soon settled on a traditional DQ cake with a cute summer design. The only potential downside of the online ordering system was a 3 day wait time between ordering and availability of the cake.

Picking up the cake was very simple – but the cashier requested my order form/receipt, which I had not printed (no instructions to do so). The situation was easily resolved, but for future reference, you may want to bring confirmation of your order with you to the store.

The cake itself was totally delicious but also, it’s ice cream so it’s hard to be terrible! I did find our cake was a little bit messy – the middle layer was missing some of the fudge that would have held it all together, and we barely had any chocolate. I’m confident that any shortcomings in the actual cake were related directly to the location I chose, and we still devoured it, so I am confident that I will order again from DQ, and most likely through the online ordering system as long as I have time. I would absolutely love to try to a Blizzard cake in the future!

I was overjoyed to be chosen to test the online ordering system and order a DQ Cake as part of the Product Review Club. I ordered a 9" Heart Shaped Choco Cherry Love Blizzard cake to celebrate an anniversary. I did notice that the selection varied depending on the store you choose, which is something I am going to keep in mind should I need a particular cake in the future. The selection offered was fun to look through. I really appreciate an online ordering system. It meant I could order the cake when I had a minute, rather than when they were open/when I could call. I liked the personalization options. However, I would have liked to see the customizable options on the cake - even if it was a picture with a disclaimer saying it might not look exactly the same. I liked that they showed the icing colours for instance; however, it would have been nice to see the writing on the cake too! In time, I guess they could aim to enhance the ordering process. The in-store pick up was fast and easy! The cake itself was beautiful and delicious! I loved the uniqueness of a heart-shaped cake. I would DEFINITELY order another DQ cake in the future and recommend it to a friend. I have already told many friends and colleagues about the ease of the online ordering system. Thank you Chick Advisor for giving me the opportunity to test the online system and enjoy a delicious cake!

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to test Dairy Queen DQ ice cream cakes as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. I was really interested in trying out the new online ordering option which helped make the experience seem more personal. I found the online tool to be very user friendly although I would have liked to see an interactive picture that changes as you add/subtract different options so you can be sure you like your design. I also would have liked to see more design/theme options offered, for instance under "transportation" there is only one option of a "train" design. The order process was efficient and the cake was ready right on time so I would order online again in the future, it was fun! The cake (traditional style) was absolutely delicious, it didn't last long! I will recommend Dairy Queen DQ Cakes to my friends and purchase them in the future for my family.

Received a SKOR blizzard cake for my birthday. YUM!!!! So good. Hoping for one again next year.

I haven't had a Dairy Queen cake in a few years, so I was pretty excited to have an opportunity to test one out. I have never had one of their Blizzard cakes (usually we get just a traditional one), so I opted to try one this time. I chose the Crispy Crunch blizzard cake and it was soooo good! It also looked great, which was an added bonus.

I really appreciated the online ordering system. I really don't like having to phone in orders, so am always looking for companies that offer an online ordering option. The online ordering process was very easy and quick. The selection was also pretty good. I would have loved to see a Hawaiian blizzard cake since that is my absolute favorite blizzard flavor (also since the only "fruity" option was the cheesecake one and I usually go for fruity cakes over chocolatey ones).

In store pick up was great. The girls working knew exactly the order I was there to pick up and I was in and out in a bout 2 min. Very impressed.

I would definitely consider ordering from DQ again and would recommend the online ordering process to anyone!

I was thrilled to test out the DQCakes.com website. I've browsed on there before, but haven't ever ordered from it. The process is so simple, I would definitely order through there again. All you have to do is select your local store, pick what cake you'd like, enter your information, and you're good to go. The cake will be ready in 2 days (or longer if you've selected a later pick-up time).

There is definitely a huge selection of cakes, especially when you look at all the designs available for their traditional cakes. I think almost anyone, from little kid to adult, could find a picture or design that would appeal to them. I decided to order a Blizzard cake, as the special flavours really appealed to me.

I ordered the 10" round Turtle Brownie Blizzard Cake as an early birthday present for myself. The taste was really delicious, though the "turtle" part was quite subtle, depending on what piece you had. The presentation of the cake was gorgeous, and the quality was good. Everyone who had a piece said they really enjoyed it.

A Blizzard cake is definitely something I would order again, though I think I would try a different flavour, just because there are so many to choose from, and they all sound great.

Thank you Chick Advisor for allowing to try this product out for free! I ordered it two days ago in Peterborough and it was ready and waiting for me right on time today. The cake was wonderful and my entire family thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked being able to order it online to save myself a trip. I found the sight very easy to navigate. I ordered an 8" double fudge cookie dough blizzard cake. The only real negative I'd have to say, and consider how good the cake was I'm not really complaining, but when I first got on the site, I noticed a snickers cake advertised. Once I got to the cake section though, I wasn't able to find this option. That would have been my first choice, but I'm assuming that because the product is so new, they hadn't yet updated the site. Besides that, the cake selection was great, lot's of options to choose from. The staff where I picked it up were friendly and helpful, the quality was just wonderful and I would definitely use this system to order again and have already recommended it to some friends!

Thank you Chick Advisor for the free DQ cake. I wanted to throw a small back to school party!

The variety of cakes differed by store. I chose the 2916 Eglinton Ave E Scarborough store, because it has a vast variety.

The online order process was user friendly, once you get a hang of it. A novice could get lost. The cake was ready on the designated time and was as per my requirement. I ordered the Mickey and Minnie on the Beach 8" DQ Cake! It was decorated beautifully and was so nice and vibrant. The staff was wonderful and even let me choose the gel color for the wording.

My son and his little friends were so excited about the cake. He had chosen the cake, so he had a sense of pride too. The cake was fresh and delicious.

I will definitely be ordering more of these cakes and will recommend them to my friends and family.

I received this cake for free to test via Chick Advisor. There was a great variety to choose from, and it was a tough choice, but I narrowed it down to an 8" Strawberry Cheesequake Blizzard Cake so I could share some with my nephew. The online order process was quick and easy, I selected a cake, date and time of pickup and that was it. On the appointed day, I went into the store, told them I was there to pick up my cake, and everything was ready.

The cake was delicious. There were real frozen strawberries on top, and the ice cream was great. I would definitely order another DQ cake in the future for a special occasion, and I highly recommend it!
