How to host an Ice Cream Party

It is simple to do and perfect for you to create for an afternoon family treat or serve at a party! Here are some great ideas, tips and recipes on serving ice cream in a fun and unique way. Smucker’s offers some different ice cream toppings such as Root Beer and Pink Lemonade Magic Shell that help make the party fun.  You can serve in cup or cone!  Everyone loves an Ice Cream Party!

I used the Smucker’s Magic Shell on our ice cream but I also used it on our cones and then dipped the cones in sprinkles. The boys loved them and wanted more! All you have to do is hold your cone over a bowl and squeeze the magic shell on your cone as you twist the cone. Be sure to cover the top. Then dip into a shallow bowl that is filled with sprinkles. I then put the cone on parchment paper until it dried. Then I served them with my children’s favorite ice cream in them.
