Amazing Ice Cream Party Favor Ideas

​​
FOR A CREATIVE TWIST
​
Ice-cream parties are fun and colourful. A light-hearted experience that sweet-tooth's of all ages can enjoy. But it doesn't have to be all about the food. We love these creative take-home gift ideas because they match the overall theme, but also provide a (temporary) break from the sweet treat itself!
​
  • Adult coloring book: featuring ice-creams, popsicles and/or summery items
  • Aprons: that you would expect to see at an ice-cream parlour
  • Beauty products: such as lip balms or hand creams with sweet aromas. You could also offer products that pair with your theme's colour palette (pastels, for example).
  • Candles: source candles with scents like chocolate, strawberry, vanilla or even bubblegum. When used, their aroma will bring back delightful memories of your special day
  • Cookie cutters: offer cute cookie cutters in summery shapes (sunshine, sunglasses, popsicles, ice cream, and so on). You could attach one or two to a mason jar filled with cookie mix for an extra treat 
  • Ice-cream cone holders: a practical and stylish gift that can be whipped out for any future ice-cream inspired events!
  • Molds: help guests create frozen magic at home with some DIY popsicle molds (+ recipe)
  • Puzzles: ice-cream themed puzzles are a playful and fun favor that can be enjoyed with family and friends for years to come
  • Recipe book: encourage guests to experiment with their very own frozen delights by handing out beautiful books featuring a variety of recipes (homemade ice-cream, techniques, and even desserts that are served with ice-cream)
  • Tea towels: featuring patterns of cute or vintage ice creams, popsicles, etc.
​
FOR THE FOODIES
​
A great way to match your favors to the overall theme of your event; these super sweet products are sure to impress!
​
  • Biscuits: send guests home with a delicious array of ice-cream themed biscuits
  • Gift basket: fill small gift baskets with mini gourmet ice-cream tubs (in a variety of flavours), cones, toppings and sauces.
  • Homemade toppings: from cherry sauce and strawberry topping, to hot fudge sauce, there's no shortage when it comes to recipes for delicious, homemade flavours. Create your favourite options, and store in small, labelled jars. At the end of your event, guests can take their pick of topping.
  • Mason jar treats: featuring ice-cream toppings to use at home (mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, etc.)
  • Mini tubs: offer mini tubs of ice cream in a variety of flavors. If you can't find pre-made tubs, create them yourself! This could be done before the event OR as a personalised favor at the end (where guests pick a flavor, scoop it, and dig in).
  • Recipe cards: featuring the guest of honor's favourite sundae recipe. You could pair this with a mason jar filled with the toppings to make it happen!
  • Sundae glass: filled with ice-cream toppings to be used later at home
  • Vouchers: to your local ice creamery, an ice-cream making workshop, or even an ice-cream tasting experience at a well known parlour
  • Tasty treats: sugar cravings begone! Hand out favor bags, boxes or paper cups (that mimic those of at ice creameries) overflowing with lollies, gummies and chocolates inspired by ice-cream flavours
  • Waffles: a gift of waffles and toppings (that can later be paired with ice-cream) is a delicious treat no guest will refuse

FOR A PERSONALISED TOUCH
Hands up if a thoughtful favor makes you smile! Let guests' know you're thinking of them with an extra sweet addition to their take home goodies.

  • ​Attach a handwritten favor card to your gifts or gift bags
  • Customise ice-cream related items (such as scoops, spoons, icy-pole holders, and sundae bowls/glasses) with guests' initials, names or a special message
  • Organise personalised, ice-cream themed tea towels for each guest to take home.
  • Print out recipe cards for your favourite homemade ice-cream; writing individualized thank-you messages on the back
  • Provide guests with reusable ice cream containers or tubs. These can be personalised with their names, and used to store treats or other goodies in their fridge/freezer at home!
