We’re right in the middle of a glorious spring and I’m checking my calendar for the next big celebration. It seems like we have more family birthdays in spring than any other time of the year. That’s fine with me since I love any excuse to have a party.
Whenever I ask the family what they want for dessert, they all scream for ice cream, especially this time of year. With my family in mind, I created a Make Your Own Vanilla Bean Banana Split Float Bar.
When it comes to making ice cream floats, I like to take a ride on the wild side. And since every member of my family has their own favorite toppings, I put out a spread and let everyone do their own thing.
Remember, it’s whatever floats their boat when it comes to an Ice Cream Float Bar.
Walmart has everything I need to make Vanilla Bean Banana Split Floats, including my secret ingredient, Blue Bunny® Vanilla Bean Blondie Ice Cream Cake.
This Ice Cream Cake really amps up the flavor and is the main ingredient in my Banana Split Floats.
Vanilla Bean Blondie Ice Cream Cake is a new addition to the Blue Bunny lineup of delicious ice cream treats and flavors. You can find it in the ice cream aisle at your local Walmart or grocery store.
Whenever I create an Ice Cream Float Bar, I add other ice cream selections for family members that just want a good ole’ ice cream cone or a bowl of ice cream.
I’m surprising all the ice cream lovers in my family with Blue Bunny® Mint Cookie Crunch and Monster Cookie Mash. These two flavors will be a welcome addition to my Ice Cream Bar.
My daughter, Caitlin, will head straight to the Mint Cookie Crunch and the grandkids will line up for the Monster Cookie Mash.
Maybe they’ll add them to their Vanilla Bean Banana Split Float. Remember, we’re taking a ride on the wild side. Anything goes!
Let’s Make some Vanilla Bean Banana Split Floats
Add a tablespoon of chocolate syrup to the bottom of a tall glass.
Add a slice of Blue Bunny® Vanilla Bean Blondie Ice Cream Cake and another tablespoon of chocolate syrup.
Slowly pour in 1/2 cup of club soda. Top with your favorite toppings, including sliced bananas, cubed pineapple, cashews, and cherries.
Drizzle with chocolate syrup and you’re all done. Yum!

Oh yum these sound delicious – so you know I’ve not had this sort of pudding before, but it sounds right up my street!
No way! I NEED to make one of these! And I mean one of these every single day this summer! YUM.
When I was little .. every Saturday my grandfather and I went to A&W for rootbeer floats. That was back when they had the drive-up and you ordered through a crackly speaker. Thank-you for the memory .. made me smile
Ohhh, a banana split float sounds amazing. It sounds like Blue Bunny has amazing flavors of ice cream, so I will definitely be picking some up at the store. I love ice cream!

Yum, I love ice cream! Ice cream based drinks are popular in our area. I prefer shakes 10 times out of 10. My parents sometimes go for ice cream floats, they like fizz.
