Bizarre Ice Cream Toppings

What would ice cream be without Toppings? Toppings complete the ice cream building experience… Who doesn’t like a cherry on top of cool delicious ice cream surrounded by fluffy whipped cream? The love of popular toppings like sprinkles, hot fudge, and caramel is easy to understand, but what about these odd ice cream toppings? Would you be brave enough to put any of these on your ice cream sundae?

Popcorn – Sweet and salty go hand in hand, but is this topping taking that idea too literally? Perhaps not, since popcorn has become increasingly popular despite its oddity. Simply sprinkle some buttered popcorn on top of your favorite ice cream and your good to go. Eat quickly, as soggy popcorn isn’t very tasty.

Warm Peanut Butter – Okay, this one we can understand. There isn’t much of a difference between this and traditional hot fudge and caramel toppings. Plus, there are plenty of ice cream flavors that have peanut butter in them already, so this topping wouldn’t be as much of a flavor shock. Put a cup of peanut butter in the microwave for about 10 seconds and then drizzle away!

Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans – Adding these to your ice cream sundae is just asking for a sugar rush. If you’re not a big sweets person or if you hardly drink caffeinated beverages, perhaps you should go light on the coffee beans. Here’s a tip: don’t eat this combination right before bed!

Cereal – Cereal is an interesting topping but definitely believable. What better way to add texture and flavor to your ice cream than by adding your favorite cereal? Give your ice cream a healthy zing by adding a granola-based cereal or satisfy that sweet tooth by adding a sugary cereal instead.

Are you brave enough to try one of these strange ice cream toppings? Who knows — maybe one of these bizarre toppers will become a new favorite! You’ll never know until you try it!
