    Snackolator added that the special sausages will first be available in convenience stores before being sold to retailers.

    Dr Pepper set to collaborate with Dippin’ Dots for frozen treat

    In other news, the soda drink brand has another collaboration up its sleeve. Dr Pepper and Dippin’ Dots, known for its ice cream beads, are releasing Dr Pepper-flavoured treats in 2026. 

    Lynwood Mallard, Chief Marketing Officer of Dippin’ Dots parent company J&J Snack Foods, in a press release, described the collaboration as one-of-a-kind:

    "Dippin’ Dots and Dr Pepper are brands that play by their own rules. This is the first time Dippin’ Dots has teamed up with another brand to debut a new flavour innovation. It’s more than just a brand mash-up; it’s a one-of-a-kind collaboration between two unique brands that thrive on originality.”

    The brands further revealed that the collaboration hopes to recreate Dr Pepper’s unique 23 flavours, which mix vanilla, cherry, spice and cola.

    Food blogger Snackolator, who tried the snacks at the NACS, reported that they tasted delicious and similar to the Whataburger Dr Pepper Shake:

     "They'll be out in early 2026. I got to try a sample at the NACS show, and they absolutely nail the taste! It's similar to the Whataburger Dr Pepper shake but in Dippin' Dots style—so delicious!"

    Brad Rakes, Vice President of Brand Marketing at Keurig Dr Pepper, stated in a news release:

    "Dr Pepper fans come from every walk of life, but they are bonded by their love for a one-of-a-kind taste. Thanks to Dippin’ Dots, they can experience that flavour in a whole new way.”
