Thanks, is it an ice cream cake?

DQ isn't ice cream. It's ice milk.

NP here. Maybe so, but they also use a whipped cream icing that is pretty amazing. I'd recommend DQ over BR.

Yes -- in the freezer case by the bakery. Not only ice cream like carvel, but both ice cream and cake like BR.

Carvel. That chocolatey crunchy layer is so good and the icing on the top. Actually, everything about it is delicious.

Carvel with double crunch. I actually insisted on one for my 40th bday. I enjoyed it more than the other one that was purchased at Heidelberg.

That said Carvel reminds me of being a little girl. I fondly remember eating a red bonnet or mint chip cone and listening to the BeeGees. It was one of the first places I was able to walk to with friends (and no parents) as a child.

From DQ's website -

Is your soft serve really ice milk? Is it 95% fat-free?

Technically, our soft serve does not qualify to be called ice cream. To be categorized as ice cream, the minimum butterfat content must be ten percent, and our soft serve has only five percent butterfat content. While our soft serve product used to be categorized as “ice milk,” the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) eliminated this category of product to allow companies the ability to market frozen dairy products as “reduced-fat,” “light,” and “low-fat” ice cream.

DQ® soft serve fits into the “reduced-fat” ice cream category and our shake mix qualifies as “low-fat” ice cream. But, even though our soft serve may have been categorized differently in the past, our recipe has not changed. DQ soft serve contains 5% butterfat, which is not the same as 95% fat-free.
