Let Them Eat Cake and Ice Cream Too

Chocolate cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream please. Sounds delicious - the perfect dessert! I could go for that right now. But how about a new way of serving up cake and ice cream - all in one slice. It's easy with the right pans. Here are a few ideas.

How about a molded round cake with ice cream in the middle - how can that be done? With our dome ice cream cake pan you bake parts of the cake and construct the cake with ice cream in the middle. You'll be able to create spectacular cakes and all you do is mix, bake and decorate. All sorts of flavors with all sorts of fillings. You can have chocolate cake with chocolate mint ice cream inside or how about white cake with peach ice cream. Substitute puddings or mousse for the ice cream too.

The newest craze in ice cream is mini bites of ice cream, like Dippin Dots® or Mini Melts®. You'll find these treats in malls, theme parks and fairs. They are tiny beads of ice cream and yogurt. Bite-size bits of ice cream dipped in chocolate can also be found in supermarkets like Edy's Dibs - small chunks of ice cream that you just pop in your mouth and let it melt. Now you can make small portions of ice cream at home. Just use a mini lift and serve cake pan.

Our mini cheesecake pan is perfect for making small portions of ice cream. Press graham cracker crumbs, or cookie crumbs in the bottom of each cavity, fill with your favorite ice cream and pour melted chocolate over the top. Quickly place in freezer. When ready to eat, just push up from the bottom. The disc will raise the ice cream treat right out of the pan. Enjoy!

How about an ice cream cupcake cone? This is a certainly a bigger portion than mini bites - a portion for those with gigantic cravings!  Use the new Nordic Ware®  Ice Cream Cone Cupcake Pan to make six 3" dia. x 3" high cupcakes that look like an ice cream cone. Then top them off with a huge scoop of your most favorite ice cream - mine would be strawberry (most would pick chocolate). Be sure you have a good appetite before you start!

So for our next birthday party - don't serve just cake... Create a sensation and serve cake and ice cream all in one slice!
