You might need longer than a day to give all these sweet treats a go, or try some of these ideas: Order a dessert for breakfast, order 2 or 3 different dessert to-go and line your refrigerator with yumminess, bring some friends and eat a quarter of each dessert or just spread out the fun and try a new dessert every week! Enjoy these cool desserts while the weather is hot, or anytime of year.
