Fun Ways to Enjoy Good Humor Bars All Summer Long

Yes, you can enjoy your Good Humor bars straight out of their wrapping, but why not make them the star of some refreshing summer desserts? Here are some ideas to get you started:

Frozen floats: For a twist on traditional floats, pair a Good Humor bar (like the Creamsicle or Chocolate Éclair) with a glass of soda. Go with lemon-lime soda for a zesty drink, or root beer for a nostalgic vibe. Simply drop the bar into the soda for a frosty float experience that's perfect for hot days. Want to take it further? Try our cider mocktail float recipes for a fun seasonal twist.
DIY dessert platter: For a more elegant option, arrange a mix of our frozen dairy dessert bars on a large platter, serving them as individual portions for a BBQ or garden party. Add fresh berries, mint leaves, and a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce for a simple yet stylish treat. For inspiration on how to style your spread, check out our guide to building the ultimate dessert charcuterie board. Or if you want to take individual bars to the next level, try our Creamsicle Board recipe; dip them in chocolate, add your favorite toppings, and serve straight from the board.
S’mores: Pair a Chocolate Éclair bar with graham crackers and toasted marshmallows for a cold-and-warm mashup that reimagines the classic s’more.
Milkshakes: Blend a Good Humor bar with a splash of milk or ice cream for an ultra-easy milkshake with built-in flavor and texture. Try our Strawberry Shortcake Bar milkshake recipe for a crowd-pleasing place to start.
Cocktails: Good Humor bars aren't just for eating as they make a surprisingly fun cocktail ingredient too.
