Most people entertain at some time in their lives. They may focus on family or close friends or associates as guests for their parties. Dessert is one of the main stays of any party and when the party is small and informal they have a wider spectrum of arenas to work in. With a wider spectrum to work in many people are deciding to create their own ice cream sundae bar for their guests.
This type of dessert service provides choices for your guests while minimizing the chance of an unsatisfactory dessert. Virtually all of the needed ingredients, even if you are planning specialty toppings, can be purchased at the nearest grocery store. It is a matter of chopping, crushing or mixing to create your special touch.
The sauces you use can be the favorites that can be found ready to serve. They are chocolate, caramel, and strawberry and may be found in any store. If you are creative you could create your own specialty sauces easily. There are recipes for cherry sauces as well as homemade raspberry sauce that will astound with their flavor and texture. Creating colored meringues is also an option. The colors are achieved with food coloring or other natural dyes and they can be used to brighten the serving table.
Selecting and creating the dry toppings for your event can also be a lot of fun. The favorites like chopped nuts, candy sprinkles, and chocolate chips are always popular with the kids while adults may appreciate a more specialized selection. It is a good idea to ask what preferences your guests may have before the party so you will have them on hand.
You may also want to try chocolate frogs, crumbled cookies, granola or fruit slices and berries. The toppings can be displayed in lined boxes, baskets or apothecaries that have been labeled. The labels can be printed on heavy paper and attached to the containers or to a small flat wooden shaft. Individual serving spoons should be placed in each container to prevent mixing of toppings.
The dishes you choose may depend on the size and age range of the participants. Children at an outside party may need plastic dishes and utensils. These supplies are available at party supply stores and are reasonably priced. These items limit the chance of injury to the child and are disposable when clean up time arrives. When events focus on adult participation you may choose to use old fashioned glass dessert dishes and long handled spoons for your guests.
For smaller parties it is recommended that ice cream selections be less than three. Chocolate and vanilla are favorites for most people. As a means of keeping it cold many people use a large tub of ice that will help keep it from melting. Each container should have a scoop of its own.
You may find that this method of entertaining is very popular. Your guests have the freedom to create their own favorite dessert or create a new and exciting combination to experience while you enjoy having more free time to spend with them after dinner.
