Fresh Toppings
The eyes eat first, so make sure to add some extra toppings to make your dessert boards visual treats too! Try:
Fresh fruit: Pick your favorite fruit, even better if it’s seasonal. Some of the best fruity toppings include strawberries, banana slices, and pineapple wedges.
Crushed cookies: Grab a bunch of your favorite cookies, like chocolate chip, red velvet, graham crackers, or shortbread, and make the dreamiest crunchy dust.
Candy toppings: For that extra texture fun. We love chocolate chips, sprinkles, mini peanut butter cups, and everything gummy.
Drizzles: Chocolate fudge, caramel, and berry sauces to top it all off.

Dessert Board Tips For Parties
Want your dessert board to be the life of the party? Try these cool hosting hacks:
- Use chilled trays or platters to help keep frozen treats solid longer. You can even place a metal tray over a bed of ice.
- Serve in small rounds rather than placing everything out at once. Keep backup items in the freezer and rotate them in as needed.
- Prep in layers: Start with your Good Humor bars as the base, then arrange toppings, snacks, and sauces around them.
Now you know how to unwrap the perfect dessert board! With your favorite Good Humor bars, fun toppings, and good vibes, this frozen spread will have everyone swooning (and asking for seconds).
