An ice cream sundae party is always fun. Everyone can make their own dessert - just the way they like it!

When getting toppings for the sundaes, you can choose to get a variety of toppings or choose to go with a theme.

* Flower Bouquet Ice Cream Dessert
What looks gross yet is really yummy? Dirt Ice Cream! Imagine your guest's or family's confusion when they see dirt and yet they taste the yummy ice cream!

You can find the directions for this Flower Bouquet Ice Cream Dessert in the link below.
* Ice Cream Picnic
Another great ice cream party idea is to take advantage of the bright sunny day and all your excellent helpers. What could be more fun than making ice cream outside! If you wait till you make it at your picnic, you won't have to worry about it melting before it hits your mouth. You brought other food with you on your picnic, didn't you? Did you keep it cold with ice? You can use that ice to make your ice cream! Ice cream parties are memorable and fun for kids when they get to make their own ice cream!
In order to throw the perfect ice cream party picnic, you'll need certain ingredients and equipment.

Ice Cream Trivia - How Much Do You Know About America's Favorite Treat?

Ice Cream Trivia:
Fun facts to Accompany Americas Favorite Summer Time Treat!
In 1984 President Ronald Reagan declared July National Ice Cream Month saying that patriotic Americans should honor the month with "appropriate ceremonies and activities." So grab yourself a double scoop of your favorite flavor and learn some fun facts about this American classic!
It is believed that in the first century the Roman Emperor Nero was a big fan of ice cream in its earlier stage. He would send his slaves up mountains to collect snow and ice so he could enjoy his flavored ices.
The first documented mention of ice cream in America was written in the 1700s. It was written to the governor of Maryland praising the ice cream and strawberry dessert he had served at a dinner party.
In 1776 the first ice cream parlor opened in New York City. During World War I ice cream became a symbol of pride for America due to the fact that a newspaper had quoted a German officer declaring, "We do not fear that nation of ice cream eaters."
In the 1920s, immigrants who arrived at Ellis Island were given ice cream to introduce them to a "typical" American treat. Many thought it was frozen butter and tried to spread it on their bread...
In 1939 Stoelting built the first soft serve ice cream dispenser for the Home Made Ice Cream Company, known today as Dairy Queen, helping to create the soft serve industry as we know it today. It has been over 100 years since Stoelting's creation and the company is still a leading manufacturer of equipment that brings us this delicious treat every day. Today, the average person in the U.S. consumes around 48 pints of ice cream per year, more than any other country! Its not just the kids either, adults consume nearly half of all the ice cream bars, popsicles, and the like every year.
