There are various flavors of ice cream that taste great, from chocolate to mint and even cotton candy flavors. Eating ice cream is a very pleasant experience, but there are a few techniques you can try to make it even more fun. This article will show you the basic techniques of eating and enjoying ice cream.
Step
Part 1 of 3: Serving Ice Cream
Step 1. Buy the ice cream
If you're too young to go out and buy your own ice cream, ask your mom or dad to buy it. In the frozen food section, you can choose large or small packs of ice cream, ice cream sandwiches, and ice cream cones, in addition to a variety of other snacks. You can also go directly to a specialty ice cream shop and buy ice cream with various additions or toppings.
Step 2. Unwrap the ice cream
Do this for ice cream cones, ice cream sandwiches, and other frozen snacks packaged in special wraps. Be careful not to drop the ice cream when opening the container. Throw the ice cream wrapper in the trash.
Step 3. Scoop the ice cream into a bowl, crunchy waffle bowl, or cone
You'll need to do this if you're buying ice cream in large packs or slightly smaller plastic containers. Using a sturdy spoon or a special ice cream scoop, scoop a little at a time, then place the ice cream in the scoop or bowl. If you are using a cone, ask someone to help you hold it while you put the ice cream in the cone.
- Dip the spoon in the warm water for a minute before using it to scoop up the ice cream. This will make it easier to scoop out the ice cream.
- Be careful, if you press too hard, the spoon may bend.
- Gently push the top of the ice cream into the scoop to make room for more ice cream.
Step 4. Add toppings
Brownie cake crumbs, strawberry slices, bananas, ground nuts, cookie crumbs, and even jelly candies can be delicious toppings for your ice cream.
Step 5. Return the remaining ice cream in the container to the freezer
Immediately placing the ice cream in the freezer before it starts to melt will keep the ice cream fresh longer.
Step 6. Take a spoon to eat the ice cream in the bowl or waffle bowl
You can also use a spoon to eat ice cream cones, but ice cream cones are made to be eaten directly without a spoon.
Step 7. Use a cloth or tissue to hold the ice cream cone
If you eat an ice cream cone, you will need a tissue or a rag to hold the cone because the melted ice cream will drip onto the cone. Wrapping the cone in a rag or aluminum foil will prevent the ice cream from melting and dripping quickly.

Step 1. Sit down somewhere comfortable so you can enjoy your ice cream
Make sure the place is safe so you avoid accidents. Eating ice cream while walking might make you drop the ice cream or bump into people.
Step 2. Lick the dripping ice
You certainly don't want to waste your ice cream. If the bottom of the cask is leaking, you can suck up the ice cream drippings from the bottom.
- Lick the edges of the ice cream sandwich as you eat it.
- If you don't like melted ice cream, wipe it with a tissue instead of licking it.
Step 3. Eat the ice cream by licking it a few times
Lick from the top of the ice cream down to the top of the cone. Lick again the ice cream that is on top of the cone. Then, start biting the snout little by little. Push the top of the ice cream with your tongue so that it goes into the cone and doesn't fall out. Keep the tissue away from the part you are eating.
- Never start eating from the bottom of the cone.
- As you start eating the rim of the cone little by little, the inside of the ice cream will show. So, eat the edges of the cone and lick the ice cream in turn.
- If all that's left is the tip of the cone, just eat the whole thing.
- Some people like to bite the ice cream straight, but this can make your teeth hurt.
Step 4. Use a spoon to eat the ice cream from the bowl or the crunchy waffle bowl
Some people like to eat ice cream by turning the spoon in the mouth so that the ice cream directly hits the tongue. There are also those who prefer to use a plastic spoon because the plastic spoon will not cool when used to scoop ice cream. Try a few different scooping ways and see which one you like best!
Step 5. Bite a little bit of ice cream if you want
For example, an ice cream sandwich that must be bitten, not just licked. You can also bite the ice cream cone at once instead of biting it bit by bit. However, remember not to bite too much so that your head doesn't hurt from eating ice cream that's too cold or also known as brain freeze.
Step 6. Wipe your mouth and hands clean when you run out of ice cream
If your face and hands get too sticky, wash them thoroughly in the sink.
