Wendy’s Introduces Orange Dreamsicle Frosty for Spring
March 14, 2024
Wendy’s is shaking things up this spring with a blast from the past in the form of its newest Frosty flavor: Orange Dreamsicle. Starting March 19, customers can enjoy this nostalgic treat, which combines the classic taste of an orange creamsicle with the creamy richness of a Frosty.
This fruity delight will temporarily take the place of the vanilla Frosty on the menu, joining the ever-popular chocolate Frosty for the season. It’s part of Wendy’s tradition of offering fun and seasonal flavors, following in the footsteps of past hits like the Peppermint Frosty for the holidays and the Pumpkin Spice Frosty for fall.
“The Orange Dreamsicle Frosty is a unique spin on a familiar flavor, packing a spoonful of sweet orange notes combined with the classic smooth vanilla Frosty for a dreamy orange cream experience. The eye-catching orange color of this delectable treat was inspired by the spring season.”

But the innovation doesn’t stop there. Wendy’s is also rolling out new breakfast options, including the mouthwatering Cinnabon Pull-Aparts. Made with Danish dough coated in glaze and baked with a blend of cinnamon, brown butter, and sugar, these pull-aparts are topped with creamy cream cheese frosting with a hint of citrus.
And for basketball fans gearing up for March Madness, Wendy’s has a slam dunk deal: With a coupon available on its app, customers can snag a $1 Dave’s Single or a $2 Dave’s Double until April 10. These burgers, featuring a quarter-pound patty topped with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, mayo, and onions, are perfect for satisfying your hunger during the game.
It’s worth noting that this offer is a one-time deal for Wendy’s rewards members, with no purchase necessary. And while there was some confusion about Wendy’s recent announcement of “dynamic pricing,” the company clarified that this doesn’t mean higher prices during peak hours — instead, customers might actually find lower prices during slower times.
