Ice Cream Gift Basket

An ice cream gift basket seems like a really great family gift.

I haven't met very many people that don't like ice cream. Most would enjoy a basket loaded with ice cream toppings and homemade ice cream gifts.

What's in My Ice Cream Gift Basket?
2 hand painted ice cream bowls, ice cream toppings in a jar, hot fudge sauce, caramel sauce, strawberry topping, and maraschino cherries.

Other things to consider adding to the basket:

an ice cream scoop, ice cream gift certificates, an ice cream recipe book or children's book , hand crafted ice cream novelties (you can find at Etsy.com by typing in "ice cream" on the website) , or a movie with an ice cream movie scene.

Variations on the ice cream gift basket: how to fit it to the occasion.

For wedding gifts or more formal gifts, use gourmet toppings and fancy glass parfaits, and make the basket and bow nice and elegant. Consider pairing the basket with an ice cream maker for the ultimate ice cream gift.

For a child's birthday, you could do the topping jars without nuts, the cherries and sauces, add a couple of ice cream story books (like Fancy Nancy) , a box of cones, a personalized bowl, Baskin Robbins(R) gift certificates, and an ice cream playdough set.

For your valentine or sweetheart, a romantic movie like: "Return To Me" or "While You Were Sleeping"), mostly chocolate toppings, fancy glass or metal dishes (2 dishes, so you can share the experience), maraschino cherries with the stems, and some homemade coupons for a relaxing bath or a massage.

A baby shower gift could have ice cream themed clothing, washcloths, blankets, and teething toy for baby, and for mom: shaped soaps, bath salts cones , and you better put some "cold cash" (gift certificate) in there for her too.
