Ice cream is a favorite sweet treat for both adults and kids. But it can be challenging to eat with how messy it can get, especially when it melts in warm weather. Here is a guide on how to enjoy ice cream without getting it all over your clothes and hands. 

How to Eat Ice Cream With Some Neatness

1. For Cones

When you’re eating an ice cream cone, wrap the treat in a napkin to protect your hand from becoming sticky. Only start eating the cone after the scoops on top, otherwise the whole structure will collapse. Frequently licking around the sides should stop the ice cream from dripping too much as well. 

2. For Bowls

If you’re allowed to add toppings on your own bowl, take care not to create an unmanageable mountain that will rain sprinkles and Oreo bits everywhere. Then sit down and relax. Otherwise, you may get distracted while walking, bump into someone, and drop all the delicious ice cream on the ground.

3. For Kids

Kids absolutely love ice cream, but they also tend to make the biggest mess. Grab extra napkins in anticipation while reminding them that it’s not a race—ice cream is better and cleaner if enjoyed at a moderate pace. When sharing with multiple children, have each child use a different spoon, so everyone can take a bite without fighting for a turn.
