The Perfect Ice Cream Sundae

by Kelsi Roth, Graphic Designer It’s officially the last full month of summer! Take advantage of the final hot days of August and treat yourself to the perfect Ice Cream Sundae.

Step 1

Pick your ice cream. Keep it simple with vanilla or chocolate to let your toppings shine, or mix it up with fruit flavors for a twist. Three scoops is a good base for your sauce and toppings.

Step 2

Add your sauce. Chocolate, caramel, or butterscotch are classic sweet choices. Warm them in the microwave for a few seconds right before you assemble your sundae so they’re still warm when you dig in. If you want something fruity, try a strawberry or peach sauce.

Step 3

Add your crunchy topping. Throw it back to your childhood with brightly colored sprinkles! Nuts like peanuts, pecans, and walnuts work well with fruit or sweet toppings. Or, try out some unique options like M&M’s, waffle cone pieces, Oreo crumbs, granola, or dried fruit.

Step 4

Top it off. Whipped cream and a maraschino cherry top off every great sundae!
