With the last heat of summer upon us, there is still time to enjoy some great ice cream snacks. My kids' school doesn't have air conditioning so nothing is better than ice cream when they come home (aff). Also, our 25 year old air conditioning unit hasn't held up all that well this summer, so my house is hot. With the temperatures here in Chicago having been holding in the 90s, ice cream is again a great snack to cool down with!
Here are a few reasons why we choose Breyers Ice Cream as our snack choice:
- Breyers now sources milk and cream from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones. (Suppliers of other ingredients such as cookies, candies & sauces may not be able to make this pledge. The FDA states that no significant difference has been shown between dairy derived from rBST-treated and non-rBST-treated cows.)
- All Breyersvanilla is real and from sustainably farmed, Rainforest Alliance Certified™ vanilla beans.
- Breyers products are available in grocery stores nationwide for a suggested retail price of $3 (aff).99 – $5.99. This makes them very affordable!
- Breyers Natural Vanilla is America’s No. 1 vanilla ice cream!
- It tastes delicous!
There are so many dessert options you can make with Breyers Ice cream too like astars and stripes sundae,toasted almond and vanilla arancini, tropical ice cream sandwich, pound cake and peaches sundaes, and banana pudding. We made the Stars and Stripes Sundae!
INGREDIENTS
Stars and Stripes Sundae
Ingredients
- 3 (aff)/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup crushed blueberries
- 2 (aff) Tbsp. confectioners sugar
- 2 (aff) Tbsp. water
- 2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
- 1 cup roughly chopped strawberries
- 2 cups Breyers® Natural Vanilla Ice Cream
- 2 Tbsp. crushed pretzels
Instructions
- To make blueberry whipped cream either by hand or with a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whisk cream, crushed blueberries and confectioners sugar until soft peaks have formed, about 5 minutes by hand and about 3 minutes with stand mixer.
- In an 8-inch sauté pan, combine water and granulated sugar with strawberries and cook on medium to high heat for about 5 to 6 minutes, until water and sugar create a syrup and strawberries begin to slightly breakdown.
- To make each sundae, spoon the warm sautéed strawberries onto the bottom of a small bowl.
- Top with ½ cup scoop of Breyers® Natural Vanilla Ice Cream. Add a small dollop of blueberry whipped cream and sprinkle with pretzels.
This was enjoyed by all!

I will be right over. I love a good Sundae! Breyers ice cream is one of the best!
This recipe looks wonderful! I love the addition of the strawberries.
Sundae’s are my favorite! You can make them anyway you want and I love to create my own stuff ;). Great idea to use these ingredients!
Being Gluten free, I have a hard time find ice creams that are all natural! That ‘s what I love about Breyers!! YUM!
There is only one reason I need to have Breyers. It’s in the house!
I’m definitely a fan of Breyer’s ice creams. This sundae sounds really good. I’m a big fan of pretzels.
Ooo I love your idea of being able to add your own toppings. I usually just eat plain ice cream when at home , I need to remember toppings.
That looks so yummy! We love Breyers ice cream, too. It’s almost weekend and I need to stock up on some ice cream.
That sundae looks yummy!! I love ice cream and especially Breyers!!
i never had pretzel on ice cream 🙂 but that recipe looks good. My son and daughter loves pretzel, I think they are going to love this combination
You were asking how would I like my Breyer’s ice cream? I like it in my belly! Yummy. I could not care less if it was just plain ice cream or made in to a sundae or a parfait. Breyer’s is the best!
Haven’t tried BREYER’S before. If given the chance, I would love to taste test some of their flavors.
We love Breyers Ice Cream too, it’s one of the best there is. Your combo looks yummy, I can hear it calling for my name! lol
We love Breyers ice cream in our household. I love how soft the ice cream’s consistency is..definitely much easier to scoop out of the container. Thanks for sharing that sundae ingredient list 🙂
Yummy, this looks delicious. I love ice cream. 🙂
Yuuummmy!! My husband is a much bigger ice cream fan that I am, but we both love Breyer’s. We have 2 containers in the freezer right now. AND I have some berries…I may just make this treat this weekend!
That looks soooo good! I love ice cream and I would love to try your recipe.
Wow. This makes me want to tr the Breyers vanilla. The flavor is very tempting
gosh we love breyers ice cream. It’s by far our favorite of all the ice creams! i love the addition of the blueberries.
That looks delicious in every sense of the word! But alas, I can’t eat ice cream unless it’s vegan since I’m sensitive to anything that is derived from milk. My family would love this, though!
This ice-cream treat looks delicious. I have to get some ice-cream ASAP
Oh that ice cream treat looks soooooo good! I could really eat tons of those because it has been scorching hot lately! Looks like the summer heat is here a lot longer! Thanks for sharing!
I haven’t tried Breyer’s yet but your recipe looks really good! I wonder if they sell that brand here.
