NEW YORK Grey's GWhiz unit targets tweens in the latest print and TV ads for Dairy Queen's new Blizzard flavors, the company said.

In the TV spot, two 10-year-olds are playing a videogame, during which the new Cotton Candy Blizzard flies across the screen, leaving

them each with a treat in hand. The work, aimed at kids ages 8-12, features new Blizzard flavors Bubble Tape Bubble Gum and Caramel Apple Tootsie Pop, which bow in October.

TV broke nationally this month and will run at least through October on Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network and Kids' WB. Print ads will appear in Nickelodeon Magazine and DC Comics titles.

Dairy Queen is based in Minneapolis.
