Notes
- Store in the freezer for up to 2 to 3 months.
- The turmeric is for natural orange color. If you want it to be more bold, try adding some orange food coloring.
- For decor ideas, try to find some Halloween-themed spoons and/or bowls to serve it with. You can easily find fun, Halloween decor at the dollar stores.
- You can even set out bowls of toppings on the counter and let your guests choose their own, like a build-your-own ice cream bar. They would look great on the table surrounded by some Halloween decorations.
- Some of the most commonly used toppings are chocolate sprinkles, Halloween sprinkles, candy corn and candy eye balls. You could also try some strawberry sauce, Reese's Pieces, gummy worms, Oreo crumbs, mini marshmallows and more. And don't forget the spooky decor!
