Ingredients for Unicorn Fantasy Freakshakes
Creating these magical Unicorn Fantasy Freakshakes requires just a few essential ingredients, along with some fun toppings to make them extraordinary. Here’s everything you’ll need to bring these vibrant shakes to life:
- Ice Cream – Choose your favorite pastel-colored ice creams! Rainbow sherbet, vanilla, or even cotton candy-flavored ice cream will work wonderfully.
- Milk – To blend everything into the perfect creamy texture, use any type of milk you prefer. Whole milk gives the richest flavor, but you can use almond, oat, or any dairy-free milk as well.
- White Chocolate – For that stunning drip effect down the side of the glass, you’ll need melted white chocolate. You can color it with food coloring to match your unicorn theme.
- Whipped Cream – Pile on the whipped cream for that signature freakshake height! You can add some food coloring to your whipped cream to make it even more festive.
- Sprinkles and Edible Glitter – No unicorn shake is complete without colorful sprinkles! Use a variety of pastel sprinkles and, for an extra magical touch, add some edible glitter.
- Candy Toppings – The fun doesn’t stop with sprinkles! Top your freakshakes with marshmallows, candy, macarons, or any sweet treats you can think of. Unicorn-shaped cookies or lollipops are perfect for this dessert.
- Wafer Cones – Add a decorative touch by placing upside-down ice cream cones on top of your freakshake. It looks whimsical and adds extra crunch.
How to Make a Unicorn Fantasy Freakshake
Now that we have the magical ingredients ready, it’s time to build your dream Unicorn Fantasy Freakshakes! These steps are simple, but the results are breathtaking.
- Prepare the glasses – Melt the white chocolate and divide it into small bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl to create different pastel shades. Drip the colored chocolate along the inside rim of your milkshake glasses and allow it to drip down the sides. Place the glasses in the fridge to set while you prepare the shakes.
- Blend the milkshake – In a blender, combine your favorite rainbow-colored ice creams and milk. Blend until smooth and creamy. Feel free to mix and match ice cream flavors for added creativity.
- Assemble the shake – Pour the milkshake into your prepared glasses, filling them just below the rim. This is where the magic starts!
- Whipped cream topping – Load on the whipped cream! You can either swirl it high or use a piping bag for a cleaner look. Be generous, as this is the star of the show.
- Top with candy – Time to add your sprinkles, candies, and any other fun toppings. Stick marshmallows, candy, macarons, or even colorful lollipops into the whipped cream. Don’t forget to add some edible glitter to make it sparkle!
- Final touches – For an extra bit of fun, place a small wafer cone on top of each shake, like a unicorn horn, and drizzle some extra melted chocolate over the top.
How Long To Make Unicorn Fantasy Freakshakes
Making Unicorn Fantasy Freakshakes is all about building layers of vibrant colors and flavors, but the actual process is quick and easy! From preparing the glasses to loading them with delicious toppings, here’s a breakdown of the time you’ll need for each step:
- Prepare the glasses (chocolate drips): 10 minutes
Once you’ve melted and colored your white chocolate, dripping it down the glasses only takes a few minutes. Pop the glasses in the fridge for about 5 minutes to set the chocolate before continuing. - Blending the milkshake: 5 minutes
Blending the ice cream with milk takes no time at all. It’s a quick step that brings together the creamy base for your shake. - Assembling the shake: 5 minutes
Pouring the milkshake into your decorated glasses is fast, and once that’s done, you’re ready to go wild with whipped cream and toppings. - Decorating with toppings: 10-15 minutes
The fun part! Adding whipped cream, sprinkles, candies, and edible glitter is where you can get creative. Depending on how detailed you want to get, this step can take anywhere from a few minutes to longer if you’re going all out with decorations.
Key Tips for Unicorn Freakshakes
To make sure your Unicorn Fantasy Freakshakes turn out perfectly every time, keep these tips in mind:
- Chill your glasses: Make sure to refrigerate your chocolate-dripped glasses to set the chocolate completely before pouring in the milkshake. This helps maintain the beautiful drip effect and prevents any mess when you pour the shake.
- Work quickly: Once you’ve blended the shake, assemble and decorate quickly to keep everything cold. This ensures the ice cream stays thick and doesn’t melt while you’re adding toppings.
- Secure toppings: For large toppings like macarons or lollipops, gently press them into the whipped cream so they stay in place. You can even use small skewers or toothpicks to hold heavier candies.
- Serve immediately: These freakshakes are best served right away while the ice cream is still cold, and the whipped cream is perfectly piled high.
How To Store Leftovers
While it’s unlikely that anyone will leave these colorful treats unfinished, you can save any leftover milkshake base! Simply store the blended milkshake in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 days. Re-blend it with a little extra milk when you’re ready to enjoy it again.
As for the toppings, it’s best to enjoy them fresh, as whipped cream and candy tend to lose their shape and texture over time. However, you can keep any unassembled shake components like ice cream or chocolate in the fridge or freezer for future use!
