Everyone can make their own waffle ice cream sundae exactly how they want.
How we made our brunch sundaes:

This smooth and creamy sundae with Breyers is the ultimate birthday treat. The ice cream is made with fresh cream, sugar + milk. And that bite of the ice cream, peanut butter, chocolate and waffle...happy birthday!!!

Waffle Bar Recipe: "The Savvy" - Pineapple + Coconut Waffle Skewers
Remember, one of the keys to a successful Waffle Bar Birthday Brunch is making sure there's something for everyone. These yummy Pineapple + Coconut Waffle Skewers are a fresh + fun brunch snack for party guests looking for something a little lighter.
Wanna know how we made these skewers?
- Cut heated waffles into small triangles.
- On each skewer or pick, alternate waffle - pineapple - waffle - pineapple. (We used Dole® Canned Pineapple.)
- Dip the finished skewer into chilled Chobani® Vanilla GREEK Yogurt.
- Next dip into toasted coconut. (Get the how-to at the end of this post.)
The healthy swap of Chobani® is awesome with the sweet pineapple and lightly toasted coconut flakes.

- Heat waffles according to package directions. Cut each waffle into small triangle shaped pieces.
- On a small skewer or large pick, assemble the skewers in this order: waffle triangle - pineapple chunk - waffle triangle - pineapple chunk.
- Dip one side of the skewers into the Greek yogurt. Then dip into the toasted coconut.

Wow all GREAT tips!!! I love the tip for using vintage milk bottles to serve drinks - how fun! And I'd take one of each of these waffles, please!!
Teri
Thank you, Tracy! I have so many of these milk bottles for decor around the house, and I thought they were a nice touch. I think I'll be using them more in my blog posts.
Natalie
What a beautiful idea for birthdays! I love the waffle tacos - so cute! The ice cream sundaes with the peanut butter and chocolate looks simply delicious ♥
Teri
It was a lot of fun to put together. Needless to say, the kids loved it.
Brian Jones
What a fantastic idea, those waffle tacos are verging on genius... Love it.
Teri
I think they would work well to make a sweet waffle taco, too. Maybe dipped in some chocolate?
Bintu | Recipes From A Pantry
A Waffle Bar birthday brunch sounds like my kind of party! I love the idea of those pineapple and coconut waffle skewers!
Teri
It turned out to be my favorite combo. It was light and slightly sweet. I used unsweetened coconut to get a nice flaky toast on the coconut.
Chris
Okay, the waffle taco shells? GENIUS. I've got to make them. Thanks so much for sharing 🙂
Teri
Anything in taco form works for me. 🙂
