birthdays and ice cream....

I think because they make the occasion special. But you will certainly find ice cream and cakes during children's birthdays. They really love these stuff along with spghetti and hotdogs. A child celebrating a birthday will definitely jump with joy the moment he/she sees ice cream and cake on the buffet table.Yes, they are a great combination and i love ice cream and cake too.

My family loves to get ice cream cake for birthdays and most of my friends have the same tradition. There's something about ice cream that's fun and comforting. What better way to celebrate than to enjoy an icy cold treat from your childhood? I don't always have ice cream on my birthday but I almost always have ice cream on a weekly basis.

What i know is ice cream and cakes are present in children's birthdays. You know kids, they love this stuff including spaghetti and hotdog. I love ice cream too, so whenever i can and if the budget permits i treat myself and my girls to a half a gallon of ice and some cake. We do have it even if there is no birthday.

Absolutely, not only is ice cream a permanent dessert during birthdays but in other celebrations as well. I guess, the cool creamy sweetness of ice cream complements the warm weather in our country. It's like a celebration "comfort food" for us Filipinos. I wonder if its the same in other countries too?

i noticed that also and i dont know why we have to make sure that we have ice cream and cake in the table of every birthday celebrant. Whether you do it at home or you do it in a restaurant. Maybe there are a deeper explanation why we did that. Or maybe its traditional so whether you dont want it in your birthday but somebody will give it you as a birthday gift. lol

I do agree with your observation, ice cream is not only present on birthday parties, but also on special occasions as well. I remember on my childhood that whenever my classmate celebrates his/her birthday, there's also ice cream on the table. Whether there is an occasion or not, ice creams were always there to bring comfort and to bring a smile on everyone's faces including me.

Well, I dont celebrate my birthday but whenever we have gatherings, we'll have ice-cream except maybe if its winter then we'll have some delicious Indian sweets. Ice creams have a very soothing and cooling effect, esp. after a hearty spicy meal. Most Indian meals are quite heavy and spicy and its good to have ice-cream after that. Of course we have the Indian version of Kulfi, but that's too heavy on the milk part. Birthday parties of course must have ice cream...its a big hit with the kids.

Honestly I have never seen any birthday party that includes ice cream. And there's always a cake .. if not cake then pastries because its similar to a cake. By the way ice creams is a really nice option to keep in a menu. Though I have always seen it in almost every party but .. never in a birthday party or even birthday treats.

Yes, most of the time we have ice cream with a birthday cake. I believe that is just a tradition that most people have. I usually buy neopolitian ice cream as it has the three main flavors and will go with most cakes. I am serving cake today at my daughter's graduation party without ice cream though.

It's a tradition :-D to have cake and ice cream. Nowadays I usually eat cake without ice cream and ice cream without cake. However, on birthdays, everybody at the party gets both (if they want it).

No I do not have ice cream when I celebrate my birthday. I am not a big lover of ice cream and the kind of ice cream I do like is usually really expensive so I do not buy it!! My children are not big lovers of icecream either so we do not have much of it in.

Yes you are right, I definitely agree with you. Whenever there are birthday parties or some celebration, cakes and ice-creams are the two things that may come first to our mind as they are really sweet and good for celebrating something. People of different ages like these two things. Cake can be used for instant celebration at the start and ice-creams can be used for finishing move as a sweet dish!!

Any celebration won't be complete without an ice cream. Its a good food extender, coz you can't possibly eat an pint of ice cream, once served you know that all the guests can eat and share among themselves. It has a level of creaminess in it that nobody can resist. The flavors that I love are mostly chocolate - specially rocky road supreme, chocolate marble, cheese, mango and halo-halo... lol

yeah! cakes and ice cream are always present in a birthday celebration. Well, i think its a tradition..^_^

Well, tomorrow is my Birthday, and unless someone surprizes me, there will be no Cake and Ice Cream this yr. But that is really OK. I am Diabetic and unless there is people there also to help share the cake I prefer not having the temptations of one around. Maybe I will just go have a Banana split to celebrate instead.

Hi jpso, when having family gathering or birthday party, I like to prepare fried chicken and french fries, for these are the favorite foods of almost all the guests. Of course there are still other yummy foods as well. I know my nieces and nephews as well as all my siblings love ice cream very much. Therefore ice cream is a must every time having happy occasion. It’s really delicious to eat ice cream together with butter or chocolate cakes or fruit cocktails. These are the tasty desserts served at the birthday party as well Wish you all the best and happy posting!

We always have an ice cream cake when my family birthday.My kid like to eat icecream cake alot so that we give an ice cream cake every birthday parties.

yes i agree with you. in our setting we always have ice cream in birthday partys and others celebrations. basically, it is very creamy and we like to eat it lot.

Here too in most birthday parties, ice cream is a must, usually served at the end, i have seen people enjoying several servings. Best of luck. Professor

Yes most of the youngesters like to serve the ice cream in party. Because most of the people like ice cream and family pack is good on birthday.
