1. Fruit Roll-Up Ice Cream

First up is TikToker @sharidyonne with the sweetest trend: Fruit Roll-Ups paired with ice cream or sherbet! Shari fills a red Fruit Roll-Up with Tie Dye Burst ice cream (which features vanilla, cherry and blue moon flavors) and shares two important tips: Use a decent-size scoop and work quickly so the Fruit Roll-Up doesn't freeze or crack. She also recommends taking "a crisp sip of water" afterward to "elevate the experience." We're definitely intrigued!

2. Edible Chocolate Ice Cream Cups

Ever wanted to have your ice cream and eat the cup too? Just follow TikToker @adeelchaudry1's recipe. Start by melting chocolate and then add it to a cup and freeze. Next, make ice cream by blending heavy whipping cream, condensed milk and vanilla extract. Adeel suggests adding strawberry purée or any other flavor you might like. Simply add the ice cream mixture to a chocolate cup, top with more chocolate, freeze again and enjoy!

3. Ice Cream Tacos

Next up are homemade ice cream tacos from TikToker @harts.content. The creator begins by making waffles in a waffle iron and folding shells over a wooden spoon to create that classic taco shell shape. Next, they melt light green chocolate and coat the inside of the waffle taco shell. After filling the shell with mint ice cream, they dip the taco in the remaining chocolate and top it with sprinkles. While we love the Lucky Charms-inspired theme, this method would work well with so many different flavor combinations!

It's simple: Add heavy cream and sugar to the almost-empty jar, whisk it all together and freeze the container overnight. The next day, you'll have a delicious tub of Nutella ice cream to devour. We love the simplicity and resourcefulness of this idea!
