Challenge of the Week

One of my friends may be joining me on this hot summer day for a free swing concert to celebrate her birthday.

I would love to make some ice cream to celebrate national ice cream month, like the Annie's Eats's oh-so-appropriate cake batter ice cream:

or Tartelette's cherry rose and coconut:

but I am not sure it will survive! Any ideas? The plain old cupcake or birthcake just doesn't do it...more on the solution later.


BTW, these are two excellent blogs I just discovered, great for those with an incurable sweet tooth like me. No promises about cavities!
