ice cream {real fruit toppings + easy dipped sprinkle cones} • The Celebration Shoppe

Love ice cream?! Us too! Today I’m going to share an easy dipped ice cream cone idea. Plus, some exciting new ice cream toppings from Breyers Ice Cream!

You would think my boys got treats constantly living in our house where there seems there is always a cupcake, cookie or cake in the oven. Actually no. It’s funny, but my boys are almost immune to the smell of things baking. They know the drill. Healthy foods everyday, treats sometimes. AND, they know mommy bakes way more than we can eat. {grin}

I’m actually very particular. And because my youngest has food allergies, I read every label!

The new Breyers Toppings line is exciting. There are three REAL fruit toppings: Strawberry Fruit Topping, Mixed Berry Fruit Topping an Cherry Fruit Topping. Not too sweet and very yummy. Plus, there is a hot fudge sauce that is dairy-free and AMAZING! {swoon}

I also have to tell you that my kids don’t really like sprinkles. They can be pretty and colorful, but they don’t always taste yummy. That said, both of my boys LOVED the new Breyers sprinkles. They’re not too crunchy or overly sweet. The chocolate sprinkles are their favorite! Again, dairy-free!

But the absolute BEST part about Breyers new ice cream topping line… NO High-Fructose Corn Syrup! {applaud}

My little one, the one with the food allergies, doesn’t always get treats when we’re out and about, so I like to make sure if I’m hosting or if we’re just at home having a snack, he feels just as special as everyone else.

Here’s how you make simple “regular” dipped sprinkle cones and “dairy-free” dipped sprinkle cones!

“Regular” chocolate dipped sprinkle cones:

Dip a sugar cone in white chocolate (melted in 8 second intervals in a glass bowl),
Allow it to drip,
Dip the cone in sprinkles

“Dairy-free dipped sprinkle cones:

Dip a sugar cone in white icing (melted for 6 seconds in a glass bowl; it will be melted but not soupy),
Allow it to drip,
Dip the cone in sprinkles

It’s just Over The Top Goodness! {wink}

And guess what!? Breyers is looking for 25 – 30 Sundae Savvy Moms to be selected between May 15 and June 30, 2013. {woo hoo}
