About


April 3rd, 1892: a day that would go down in infamy. Platt and Colt's Soda Fountain in Ithaca, New York first created a ice cream dessert known as a "Cherry Sunday" on this day 122 years ago, and even advertised it in the local newspaper two days later. While there is some debate about whether it was TRULY the first sundae, we say, why not celebrate all things chilly, creamy, sweet, and fudgy? Here are the best bases, syrups, and toppings to make your next sundae seriously next-level.

So, About the Sundae...
In case you need a refresher course on the standard sundae, you're going to need ice cream, hot fudge sauce, whipped cream, and a maraschino cherry. Also optional: crushed nuts, cookie crumble, brownie, and marshmallow. But that's only the beginning. Here are our best recipes for a classic sundae.

It's All About the Toppings
A sundae's greatness truly depends on the greatness of its toppings; the synthesis of flavors between ice cream, sauce, and other goodies. From sugary peanut crunch to butterscotch sauce, the best part about sundaes is how easy they are to customize.

We All Scream For...
To add a really gourmet, crafty touch to your sundae, try making your own ice cream at home. Vanilla is probably the most popular way to start, but mixing up your flavors can add all kinds of dimension to your dessert creation.

How to Remix It
The sundae isn't just about hot fudge! Try a strawberry shortcake version, a Carnival Sundae (with popcorn!) or one of these other great variations on a very, very tasty theme.
