Ice cream is considered a traditional summer dish, but beautifully presented ice cream can be a great dessert at any other time. It can be served for birthdays, parties, name days, proms, bachelorette parties, name days and even gala receptions, the main thing is to decorate beautifully. Here are five ways to beautifully decorate and serve ice cream:
The first way: original dishes.
Are you used to serving ice cream in bowls? Experiment! Place the ice cream in short glasses or small colorful bowls. Do you have clear glassware? Put ice cream in a saucer in a slide, decorate it with candied fruit, pieces of fruit, a mint leaf, pour over with syrup.
The second way: unusual design
In a plate or saucer where the ice cream is, squeeze a beautiful mound of whipped cream from the can next to it and make an unusually tasty design. Sprinkle the edges of the plate with fresh orange or lemon zest mixed with sugar, and decorate with a few thin slices on top. Depending on the type of ice cream, it can be decorated with nut crumbs, raisins, thin slices of dried apricots or prunes, biscuit pieces, fruit, syrup. This decoration of ice cream will give it a special aroma and piquant rich taste.
The third way: decorating with fruits and berries
Summer is the time for different berries and fruits, so why not give ice cream a special, colorful look? A handful of raspberries, strawberries, cherries, strawberries, blackberries, peach slices or apricots will make a cool dessert bright and fragrant. In winter, you can decorate with tangerine slices, slices of kiwi, orange, banana or grapes.
 Fourth way: chocolate and ice cream
The classic reception of chocolate and ice cream attracts many lovers of this delicious dessert. You can decorate ice cream at home very simply. Firstly, you can beautifully decorate ice cream with chocolate chips by rubbing black or milk chocolate on a grater. Secondly, a chocolate bar can be cut with a sharp knife into thin chips. You will get an original decoration, especially if you use dark and white chocolate. The third way is to melt the chocolate in a steam bath and gently pour over the ice cream. You can water from above or alternating layers and cooling. The fourth option is to buy chocolate mousse and pour it over ice cream.
 Fifth way: citrus temptation
Citrus fruits can be excellent utensils if cut in half and carefully scooped out. Fill the middle of the hemisphere with vanilla or cream ice cream and decorate the top with thin slices of orange, a slice of kiwi and a mint leaf. Such unusual dishes can be made not only with an orange, but also with a lemon.

The easiest way to make ice cream is to make popsicles. But just freezing fruit is boring. website collected 10 recipes where classic tastes collide and unexpected combinations appear. Watermelon + tomato + pepperKiwi + juice + honeyGrind kiwi fruit in a blender, mix with any of your favorite juices. Sweeten with honey and pour into molds. Chocolate chip cookies + milkFruity symphony can be diluted if you freeze milk with cookies. Celery + basilUnsweetened but refreshing ice can be made from celery. Grate it and squeeze the juice through cheesecloth. Mix in a blender with basil. Coconut milk + blueberriesThey grow in different latitudes, but get along well together: blueberries with coconut milk. With blueberries, everything is clear, and coconut milk is easy to make yourself. Peel the nut from the shell, do not remove the brown skin. Grate the pulp or chop in a blender, pour warm water. 1-2 glasses is enough. The less water, the richer the milk will be. Remember coconut in milk and strain through cheesecloth. Now it can be frozen with blueberries. Avocado + lemon + coconut milkAnother adventure: squeeze the juice from two limes, mix in a blender with an avocado, a glass of coconut milk and tarragon leaves. Sugar can be added if desired.
Everything is insanely simple and very clear. We take lemons or oranges and thoroughly (even with soap) wash them under a stream of running water. And be sure to pour boiling water over them. Then we cut them in half and take out the core, which you can just eat or squeeze out the juice, or you can use in the recipe for some delicious homemade cakes.
 When the citrus halves are completely cleaned of the insides, we simply take the ice cream and beautifully lay it out in them.
 We insert beautiful small spoons into the dessert and serve the ice cream to the table until it melts. Agree that such a presentation can significantly cheer up and certainly surprise your guests! To be honest, no one has ever treated me to ice cream in this form before. Perhaps this idea will be fresh and new for you too! Of course, not every housewife will want to transfer such a number of lemons just to serve ice cream in them, but when you suddenly need lemon or orange juice for some other recipe, on the contrary, why waste goodness and throw the skins into the trash can? We will kill two birds with one stone - and prepare a dish with citrus juice, and serve ice cream beautifully! By the way, it will look even more beautiful and colorful if you serve half of the servings of ice cream in orange halves, and the second part in lemon halves. The combination of orange and yellow will cause only the most positive and pleasant emotions in your guests and loved ones! You liked the idea! How else do you serve ice cream? Share with us your options and ideas, give advice, because it's so great and important for us! Bon appetit, our regular readers and new friends!
