Whether you want to wow your sweetheart or make your “Galentine’s Day” extra special, you need to try our two freak shake recipes – Brownie Batter Explosion and Berries n’ Cream Vanilla!
You may be wondering, what in the world is a freak shake? It’s the ULTIMATE ice cream shake, topped with lots and lots of delicious toppings. We’ll be adding frosting, sprinkles, whipped cream, more sprinkles, and of course, donuts!

Our freak shakes were inspired by our heart-shaped donuts, which is why they are so perfect for Valentine’s Day. The Brownie Batter Crumble Heart Donut features a brownie batter filling, which tastes just like the batter you used to lick off the spoon as a kid. Then it’s topped with chocolate frosting and brownie crumbles. Check out the Brownie Batter Explosion Freak Shake it inspired below!
And of course we can’t forget our Chocolate-Covered Raspberry Heart Donut, which is filled with a premium raspberry jelly and topped with chocolate frosting and a strawberry frosting drizzle. Check it out in the Berries n’ Cream Vanilla Freak shake below.
