Graduation Party Desserts: Why Shaved Ice Steals the Show

School colors on a spoon

Late-spring and summer graduations call for something cooling, and shaved ice can be matched to any school's colors with the right syrups — an easy, festive touch.

It's also budget-friendly for a crowd, since one setup serves dozens of proud guests.

Keep the line moving

Pre-portion cups, prep syrups ahead and offer a short menu of crowd favorites so the celebration flows. Everyone leaves cool, happy and Instagrammed.

Meet the cutest ice on earth 🌵

Prickly Ice is opening soon in Hawaii, Arizona, Michigan and San Diego. Every bowl is hand-shaved snow sculpted into a smiling little cactus and buried in fresh fruit.
