A few days before I gave birth to Olive, Sally and I got the best delivery we have ever gotten – a giant cooler of Graeter’s Ice Cream! Thanks to Graeter’s for sponsoring this post and spreading the best kind of holiday cheer (and making pregnant women everywhere a little bit happier- ha!) All opinions remain my own.

The more kids I have the more I find myself simplifying my entire life. Gone are the days of endless hours spent figuring out gifts. I have been trying to keep it easy on myself and this year I’m super excited to share an amazing hostess gift idea- a delivery of the very best ice cream on the planet:
Graeter’s Ice Cream! Of course we had to taste test so little scoops of each flavor seemed like the perfect way to do it. Quality control, ya know?!
Graeter’s ice cream is so unique! It isn’t fluffy like some ice cream-the small batch “French Pot Process” creates an amazingly rich and dense texture you can only get by making ice cream 2 1/2 gallons at a time.
And can you even deal with these amazing flavors? Just a few of the many options you can order online!
You can be sure my next order will have this fruity flavor, this classic kid friendly fave and this new-to-me flavor that sounds totally unique and delicious.
My girls are all partial to the Peppermint which is PINK. So fun. But my faves are the Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip and the regular ol’ Vanilla Bean (which is honestly so far from regular!) – so rich and delicious. Picture showing up to your host or hostesses house with a basket full of ice cream goodies, then having a delivery of ice cream show up on their doorstep! Talk about a unique “wow” present. Plus it gives your host or hostess something to actually use and serve during the hectic holiday season.
Here are a few fun ideas for pairing and gifting your ice cream delivery. Everything is available with quick shipping online (if not -affiliate- Amazon Prime!) so you still have a few days to get your orders in and create the perfect gift. Can you even handle the rose gold ice cream scoop? Might need to order myself one so I can scoop our family Graeter’s in style. Priorities, you know.
Some pretty ice cream kitchen towels, an ice cream straw cup (yes this exists and it’s amazing), pastel ice cream bowls, a rose gold ice cream scoop (obsessed), chocolate sprinkles, and some gourmet hot fudge. Be sure to tie a beautiful ice cream ornament (or two!) to your gift package and you will be all set to arrive with a gift your friends and family will love and remember forever. Yum!
Use code Mommyhood-Sweets by Wednesday December 13th to get $5 off your first online Graeter’s order.
And the melty aftermath of photographing ice cream:
Still delicious!
Have a wonderful weekend,

This looks so delicious. We love making ice cream with our Kitchen Aid ice cream maker. But this post is encouraging me to test out new flavors. Lately we have been just making vanilla to pair with pumpkin, pecan and apple pies during the holidays.

I CAN’T LOVE THIS POST ENOUGH!!! We have Graeter’s right down the street from us. Black Raspberry Chip is my ultimate favorite with the seasonal Pepermint Stick as a close second. I had not idea my favorite ice cream company did this. Thanks for sharing, truly!!

Icecream has never looked so beautiful! It looks absolutely scrumptious. I have never thought of gifting a treat like this. Yumm!!
Susan Crawford says
I’ve never thought about gifting ice cream either, not because I didn’t think it was normal, but because I would rather have it to myself

Lynn Marie says
My mouth is watering! These flavors all look amazing! I’m partial to peppermint too. Mmmmm. Love the photography and layout of the product too in this post. Very eye catching and pretty.
