This DIY family sundae kit gift idea is perfect for neighbors, family members and friends! This kit includes everything but the ice cream and is the perfect family gift idea! I’ll show you how to make it extra cute.
We always aim to plan fun family activities on our weekends and this DIY Family Sundae Kit is the perfect activity for every family! It’s fun to make for your own family and it also makes a great neighbor gift, family gift idea or dessert to bring to an outdoor BBQ or even gift as a fun Christmas present.
To make your own DIY Family Sundae Kit you’ll need a tray
Then get some colorful tissue paper
You’ll need lots of ice cream toppings! Start out with Hershey’s Syrup
Then add lots of candy toppings
I filled each of the bags and then stapled them shut. I found cute little stickers
I also included waffle cones
I also included an ice cream scoop
Then assemble it all in your tray. I grabbed a $1 chalkboard sign
We brought our Family Sundae Kit to the cabin where my husband’s family always has big get togethers on Sunday. We went out on our boat and had some amazing, quality family time together. Then we gathered around the picnic table and we all enjoyed our sundaes! Everyone LOVED picking out all their toppings and Hershey’s Syrup. It was so much fun putting different concoctions together!

Good evening! I’m stopping by from the Inspiration Monday. After seeing this basket and reading that it’s all ready to give to a friend, I was very sad that you and I are not friends if this is the type of awesome gift you give yours! 🙂 This looks so marvelous, I can’t wait to make one! What a great idea!
Thanks a bunch!

Thank you, how sweet. Could be a great way to make new friends this summer.
Oh I love this idea! So fun! I would love to make this for a day when I have the family and friends over to swim! Would be so fun to pull it out and let everyone make their own! You always come up with the neatest ideas!!!!
Ice Cream Sundae kits would be perfect for a treat after swimming.
Yum! That looks like one delicious sundae kit. We usually have Sunday BBQ’s ever weekend in the summer. These would be perfect for those.
That is such a fun idea! My kids would LOVE it.
I loveee hersey and I am addicted to the carmel sauce. this dyi looks great and it looks like it was a fun time.
That is so awesome! We love to dress up our ice cream, so a box like this would go over BIG in my house.
I love this as a gift idea – I can see using it as a housewarming, welcoming a new family member, or even “just because” thanks for sharing!
I agree, it would make a great gift idea.
This looks like a great way for the family to reconnect this Summer. We live in SoCal, so there’s nothing quite like a fresh sundae on a lazy Summer afternoon.
It can be a great way to reconnect. And you can customize your kit so everyone gets something they love.
This is such a great idea. I love all the fun toppings you included and waffle cones too! yum!
It is a great way to make sure everyone gets to make exactly what they want.
We would definitely enjoy a kit like this. Those Hershey syrups are delicious with ice cream and gelato.
I think that anyone who likes ice cream can use a kit like this! We will have to try it with gelato soon!
What a fun little setup! My kids would be allll over that! What a great idea for parties and BBQ’s!
Such a cute idea! I love the idea of having this ready to go for the weekend. All you need to add is the ice cream and you are ready to go! And I think you included all my favorite syrups, too!
I love this idea! I think my family would really enjoy this!
This is such a fun idea. I think it would make the perfect play date treat!
This is a delicious basket. It would make a great gift. I love going for nature walks on my Sundays.
We love to take walks after dinner in the summertime! This basket is so cute, it would make a great housewarming gift!
This would be a fun afternoon or after dinner activity with the kids. Add in watching a movie outside and it would be a fun time.
Oh, a movie outside would be a perfect addition to these.
I just need to say that we love the Hershey’s dark chocolate syrup. 🙂 What a fun kit and you made it look so pretty!
The Hershey’s dark syrup is really great.
My kids would be so excited to come home and see this on the table! What a fun way to break up the week. AND this would be a fantastic gift! Thanks for the ideas!
You should surprise them with it. It is a great treat and everyone can get exactly what they want.
What a great idea! I’m going to have to try that one…. who doesn’t love sundae’s?
Over from the Weekend Retreat.
I know. How could anyone not love a sundae.
Cute kit. Would be a great gift for a family!
Great idea! This would be nice for camping.
what a great ideal,,it looks so good,,would not last long at my house
I just love this idea! Not only would it make a great gift (especially for those with a summer birthday) but what a huge hit it would be a food gatherings. Make a big batch of homemade vanilla ice cream and you’re good to go. Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh, I think homemade ice cream would just make it even better.
Where did you get that box? Also, what are the dimensions of the box? I love this idea!
I found it at Target in the Home section! It is actually a tray. I would guess it’s about 24 inches by 18 inches.
Thanks so much!
I’m so glad I stumbled upon this. I’m planning to make two of these: one for my best friend’s family (2 adults, 4 young children), and another for my sister’s family (2 adults, 2 young children). It’ll be the perfect gift for two families that don’t need stuff. Disposable + family bonding = a mom’s dream come true.
Yes!! I am all about experiences and gifts that are used up and not accumulated. Glad you found this as well!
