Tips for Serving Ice Cream Cake

So much goes into planning the perfect birthday party — invitations, decorations, menu items and more. With so many details to keep track of, one of the easiest to cross off your list is the ice cream cake. Carvel^® offers delicious ice cream cakes for all party sizes to help make sure you plan accordingly.

Here are a few tips from our friends at Carvel^® about how to best serve an ice cream cake:

• Don’t forget to thaw! Prior to serving, thaw the cake 30 minutes in the refrigerator or 15 minutes on the counter. This will ensure the cake is at just the right temperature and consistency.
   
• Cut with a long, serrated knife for clean slices. Warm the knife in some hot water, dry off excess water, and dig in!
   
• It can help to re-dip the knife in warm water after every few slices. This will ensure that each slice looks its very best when it’s served.
   
• Remember to keep the cake out of direct sunlight during the party. The last thing you want on this special day is a melted mess!
