Cold Stone Creamery Party Ideas:

Treat your Guests

• The holidays are a time to indulge your sweet tooth and Cold Stone Creamery has the perfect dessert, made fresh in stores. Pick up a Dazzling Fudge Velvet™ cake to share with family and friends. This cake has layers of moist Red Velvet Cake, Fudge and Sea Salt Fudge Ice Cream with Candy Cane Pieces wrapped in fluffy White Frosting and Fudge Ganache.
• Order your cake online at www.ColdStoneCakes.com.

Give it a Theme:

• White Elephant - This gift exchange will up the ante and get your guests out of their shell as they steal each other's gifts in a fun and often silly manner.
• Ugly Sweater - The ugly sweater party has become so popular that you can now buy them at almost any clothing retailer. But the best ones are usually handmade and conjure up memories of childhood gifts from grandma.
• Black Tie - Dress to impress! Get fancy and pull out all the stops with your best tuxedo and ball gown. It can be a rehearsal for that exclusive New Year's Eve bash you're going to.

Play the Classics:

Play these familiar songs to keep the holiday spirit alive:

• Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer
• Winter Wonderland
• White Christmas
• Jingle Bells
