I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Ice Cream!!!

Man it's hot outside, and when it's this hoe all I can think of is ice cream!! Here is a gorgeous ice cream sundae bar from blog Eat Drink Chic as inspiration. You can even download the cute sign templates here.

The best way to create a ice cream bar (or candy station) is to pick a color scheme and run wild with it. I found a few products to make a fun summer inspired ice cream bar.

For the label holders look for fun place card holders like the ones found here. I chose beach balls to bring in that Beach-summer look.

 These fun ice cream bowls found here are colorful and great to hold a myriad of toppings.

Apothecary jars found here can hold nuts - the lid will keep them safe from anyone with allergies.

 Another jar option found here.

This silverware drawer can be cute sprayed white and label holders placed on. Found this one on Etsy .

Yellow Sprinkles

Yellow Chocolates from Candy Warehouse

Dots Candy

Also, include white toppings like coconut and marshmallows.

Another idea would be to make a ice cram sandwich bar. Make the sandwiches ahead of time (super easy - buy cookies and ice cream) and freeze at least overnight. Put out the sandwiches and have guests dip in a bunch of different toppings like sprinkles, nuts, even Carmel and chocolate sauce.

A friend of mine got these super cool Ice Cream molds that allow you put your own mixture in it and freeze. Mix vanilla ice cream with a bunch of candy and freeze. Or, for the health conscious make it with yogurt like Chobani or Fage.
