Hello-ween! Minus the bad pun, Spooky season is in the air and requires a spooktacular party (we will be done with puns in a minute). We thought Halloween deserves creativity, blood, sweat, and tears (well, not literally). But the party is a must! Hence, Tasty Ice Cream has collected a list of Halloween ice party ideas that cater to people of all ages. The ideas are ghooood!
Preparation:
When it comes to Halloween, you have to make everything spooky and scary. We are talking cobwebs, giants spiders, spooky wuthering heights like backdrop, eyeballs, and sacred relics. Make sure all of these elements are artificial. We really don’t meet giants spiders. To level up your party, make it as spooky as you. Sprinkle pumpkins, candles, and hooded skeletons around the venue and dim the lights. Customize your music playlist. Add all the jitters-inducing tunes to the mix and play them during the party. The spooky aura will match the season’s vibe and attract guests of all ages.
Food:
Ice cream, ice cream, and a lot of ice cream. But not just your plain, regular old scoop. We are going all out with spooky-looking eyeballs-shaped ice cream, bloody ice cream sundaes, and witch hat-like waffle cones. Create cursed candy apples, bubblegum ice cream, and mad scientist float. How? Scroll below.
Eyeballs!
We got you if you are looking for ice cream molded into eyeballs. It is a great way to add artificial gore and a spooky aura to the party. Plus, eyeballs are super easy to make. Just stick them out of the sockets. Minus the joke, check out the recipe:
Ingredients
- White ice creams like marshmallow or vanilla
- Any flavored gummy candy (round in shape)
- Chocolate (preferably M&Ms)
- Strawberry or rose syrup
Method
- Add a scoop of white ice cream into a bowl.
- To create a pupil, carefully attach chocolate and gummy to the white ice cream.
- Drizzle with a strawberry or rose syrup. This will give it a bloodshot eye look!
Bloody rootbeer float
This traditional dessert is bloody by combining root bears with any ice cream. It’s super easy to make this. Simply add a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream to a cup of refreshing root beer. Then, top it with cream and sprinkles. The red color of the drink will give it a blood-like look. Yum!
Monster Sundays
This is by far the easiest sundae you will ever make. It is molded to reflect the Halloween spirit, and the colors and the taste are nothing alike. The look may be revolting, but the taste is to die for! Pun-intended.
Ingredients to make monster sundae:
- Pistachio or green ice cream
- Any candy eyes
- Chocolate sprinkles
- Icing
Method:
Simply take a bowl and add a large green or pistachio ice cream scoop. Doodle a face with icing, preferably chocolate. Attach candy eyes and top them with some sprinkles. Ugly but lovely taste!
Possessed Pumpkin
Is Halloween empty without our good ol’ famous pumpkin? From pumpkin pies to pumpkin cookies down to pumpkin ice cream. There are tons of pumpkin-inspired treats, frozen and non-frozen. These treats will keep going throughout the entire spooky season! Keeping this orangish notion in mind, let the pumpkin possess you and let it order you to make a pumpkin ice cream. The ingredients of this ice cream are pumpkin puree (you can even use a canned one), vanilla extract, dark brown sugar to give it a little kick of sweetness, heavy cream for texture and taste, egg yolks (they act as stabilizers), cinnamon (you can use a stick or ground powder), bourbon, salt and a bit of nutmeg. The spicy taste of the pumpkin mixed with the sweet and creamy flavor of ice cream is to sell your soul for!
Moreover, orange is the official color of Halloween! So, what better way to make your taste buds tingle than with pumpkin ice cream. The tangy ice cream will call for second and third servings!
Ice cream trick o treatin’
Sway your guests with an ice cream treat. If the weather permits, you can set up a stall outside and party in the garden. Decorate the dock with tons of spooky wall hangings, pumpkins, and skeletons. Add leave-shaped fairy lights to unleash your dark academia. As for the trick or treats, use a shelf or lightweight table. Set up a sundae bar and top extra jars with ice creams and toppings. In this way, you will be able to entertain your guests and the neighborhood kids.
Witch cones
Witch cones are we talking about? The Witch cones! Unleash the witch blood inside of you by making witchy waffle cones. Simply make a waffle batter. Once the waffle is ready, roll it into a cone. In a separate bowl, melt chocolate (preferably dark). When your chocolate is ready. Dip your cone into the mixture and set it on the cooling tray. Once the chocolate sticks to the waffle, you can use sweetened milk or cream to draw the contents of a witch’s hat. Fill the waffle witch hat with ice cream. You can even take a glass or a bowl. Add a large scoop of any green-colored ice cream. Doodle a witch’s face on the scoop, paste candy eyeballs and place your waffle witch hat over the ice cream. The witch-like ice cream will look oddly adorable and delicious. You can serve it in large portions or small servings. It will be a guest favorite in no time.
