This is a decadent frozen treat that mixes [nostalgic flavors from one's childhood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-fun-times) with upscale adult beverages. The sundaes are made entirely from scratch beginning with the [homemade bourbon gingersnap ice cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tipsy-scoop-kraken-ship-wrecked) made from crumbled gingersnap cookies, cream, sugar, milk, eggs and bourbon. The ice cream is then topped with a caffeinated hot sauce made from chocolate, maple syrup, instant coffee, cocoa and whipping cream. The finale addition is a garnish of [maple-glazed cornflakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cerealsly-delicious-series-by-salt-straw) made from cornflakes covered in a coating of maple syrup and contrasting pink flakey salt. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.0/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 7% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Life](https://www.trendhunter.com/life) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Bourbon-infused Desserts:** Opportunity to create innovative and unique desserts by incorporating bourbon in unexpected ways. - **Nostalgic Flavors with a Twist:** Chance to reinvent classic flavors from childhood by adding a sophisticated and adult element. - **Maple-glazed Toppings:** Potential to explore different ways to use maple syrup as a glaze or coating in various desserts and dishes. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Food and beverage industry can take inspiration from this trend to develop new products that cater to adult consumers seeking indulgent and nostalgic treats with a twist. - **Hospitality:** Hotels, restaurants, and dessert bars can leverage this trend to create unique and tempting desserts, attracting customers looking for a luxurious and inventive dining experience. - **Alcohol and Spirits:** Alcohol and spirits industry can explore opportunities to collaborate with dessert makers and create innovative bourbon-infused desserts that cater to the growing demand for unique and indulgent flavors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spicy Chili Sundaes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-milk-sundae.md) - [Boozy Ice Creameries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-creamery.md) - [Salty-Sweet Sundaes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salted-brown-butter-cookie-dazzler.md) - [Deep Dish Cookie Sundaes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffalo-bonanza-cookie-sundae.md) - [Autumnal Ice Cream Sundaes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caramel-apple-hot-fudge-sundae.md) - [Boozy Eggnog Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jenis-boozy-eggnog.md) - [Candied Whiskey Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graeters-bourbon-ball.md) - [Pint-Sized Ice Cream Sundaes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ben-jerrys-sundaes.md) - [Boozy Tropical Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tipsy-scoop-100-coconuts.md)
