Ice Cream Toppings, Sauces
There's lots of different toppings you can use on your
homemade ice cream.
Also great for: an ice cream cone, ice cream sandwich
or
a wonderful Knickerbocker Glory
-
Nuts (whole, chopped or flaked) - hazelnuts, walnuts, pecan nuts, almonds, etc
-
Fruit - chopped or dried such as banana or pineapple; also fresh fruit such as sliced kiwi, whole strawberries, cherries, blueberries, wedges of apple, etc.
-
Chocolate - strands, flakes (especially popular in the UK!), also chocolate buttons and chocolate chips
-
Fudge - small, square pieces
-
Shredded coconut
-
Marshmallows - packs of mini marshmallows are available from most supermarkets
-
'Hundreds and thousands' - multi-colored sprinkles
-
Whipped cream (there are some low-fat 'squirter' creams as well)
-
Chocolate dipped fruit - just melt some chocolate (white, milk or dark it's up to you) and half dip your chosen fruit into it. Place to one side to set (on a sheet of foil). This works well with strawberries and grapes and looks and tastes great on top of ice cream.

Chocolate, toffee, maple syrup, caramel, strawberry, melba, hot fudge, butterscotch, blueberry .... the list goes on!

Heat the sugar, butter and syrup together gently in a saucepan and stir until fully melted/dissolved. Boil for 3-5 minutes then allow to cool a little before stirring in the milk or cream. Whilst the sauce is still hot pour it over your chosen ice cream for a delicious treat!
