Make this super easy and fun ice cream charcuterie board for Summer. It is perfect for parties, movie night or just snacking with your family.

Everyone will love this ice cream charcuterie board!

I love to make a charcuterie board and I love ice cream! We recently made this Ice Cream Sundae Bar and it was a huge hit. I started thinking why not combine two of my favorite things to make an Ice Cream Charcuterie board? It turned out fabulous!

You basically load the board up with all of your favorite ice cream and toppings and it is so easy. We love to serve this for company and guests just love it. It is also great for birthday parties and any type of celebration. It looks so pretty and put together but is so simple and easy.

We love this for entertaining and I think you will too! You might also like our Summer Snack Charcuterie board.

Ingredients:

Anything will work and you can just use what you have. These are some ideas we love:

Ice Cream – pints work best on a charcutirie board. Homemade is also yummy. Try Kool Aid Ice Cream, Cotton Candy Ice Cream, No Churn Chocolate Ice Cream and Vanilla Ice Cream.
Frozen Yogurt – Use your favorite flavor.
Waffle Bowls
Ice Cream Cones
Strawberry Topping – Try this homemade Strawberry Sauce.
Hot Fudge Topping – This easy hot fudge is the best!
Caramel Topping – Make homemade caramel sauce in minutes.
Peanut Butter Topping – My kids go crazy over peanut butter topping and it is super quick and easy!
You can also add our Magic Shell Recipe
Strawberries
Blackberries
Red Raspberries
Blueberries
Yogurt Pretzels
Mini Marshmallows – Sometimes you can find different flavors and shapes and those are fun too!
Cookies- Use anything you like. Try animal crackers, mini chocolate sandwich cookies, chocoalte chip and more.
Candy- This is a great time to use up leftover candy. Favorites include: thin peanut butter cups, gummy worms, taffy, gummy rings and slices, Mike & Ikes, Swedish fish, Skittles, M&M’s, gummy rainbow drops and licorice. Just use what you love! Chocolate chips are my favorite!

How to make ice cream sundae charcuterie board:

First, you need a large board. You can find several charcuterie boards here or just use a large wooden board. If you have one with edges, that is easiest because it keeps all of the items in place.

Second, put cans to act as placeholders for where you want the ice cream pints and frozen yogurt to go. You won’t add those until last so they don’t get too soft. ,

Next, add all of the bowls for the toppings you plan to use and the ice cream cones and waffle bowls.

Now, add the next largest items such as the yogurt pretzels and fruit. Then add the medium items to another section of the board.

Finally, fill any remaining spots left with the small items.

That is it! It is really so easy to make an ice cream sundae board. The presentation is awesome and looks like you put a lot of time into it. However, the entire thing takes very little time!

Fun serving ideas:

Sundae glasses – If you want to be really festive, use sundae glasses to serve the ice crema in. You will love having these on hand to reuse for parties and more.
Disposable party cups – Sometimes, paper is best and you can get really cute ice cream cups. I have seen some really cute ones on Amazon, dollar store and more. So fun!
Mason jars – I love using mason jars because they are so practical for so many different uses. You can use them for ice cream and then wash and reuse for numerous other ways.

And of course you have the ice cream cones and waffles bowls on the charcuterie boards for more options. Kids normally love the cones or waffle bowls.

Let us know what you decide to use. The options are endless and this ice cream board is super fun and easy for any occasion.
