Having a superhero ice cream party? Let me show you how you can make superhero ice cream cone wrappers to add some fun to your superhero party. I even included a free printable wrapper pattern that you can download yourself.

With having two sons, superhero themed birthday parties were common in our house when they were younger. Finding themed napkins and plates were easy, but finding fun stuff like ice cream cone wrappers wasn’t easy. So, my wife and I came up with a idea to make our own superhero ice cream cone wrappers. They are easy to make, you can use scrapbook paper, wrapping paper or even a poster. We’ll show how and even give you a free printable download.
To make our superhero ice cream cones we shopped at Smart & Final. It’s right down the street from our house and quicker to get in and out compared to the big supermarkets. We bought the store brand First Street ice cream and First Street cones. We buy them often because we like their variety and the taste is as good as the name brands. We also like the price of the ice cream compared to the name brands.
To make your ice cream cone wrappers, you will need superhero paper. We found it the easiest to use a Marvel poster. So you will need a superhero poster, ice cream cone wrapper pattern, glue stick or tape, and scissors.

After printing the pattern, cut it out. And use it to trace the shape on to your poster or paper.
After you cut out all your ice cream cone wrappers, you will glue or tape them on to your sugar cones. Make sure you glue or tape to the wrapper not the cones!
Repeat this with all your wrappers and cones. I thought they came out pretty cool.
As added fun we even made custom sprinkles in superhero colors. It’s easy to do by adding food color to white sprinkles. My wife learned how from this blog post: DIY Sprinkles.
Now you can make your superhero ice cream cones! Use any First Street ice cream flavor you want and your custom superhero sprinkles. My kids loved them, but did fight over who got Captain America.
I love the superhero cone wrappers!!! Perfect addition to my backyard pool party for my son!!!!! I will serve these with cotton candy ice cream!
This is SUCH a clever idea! Love it!!

Thanks again Shelly for featuring my post.
I love these! If my sons birthday wasn’t in august and if we were having it inside I would totally use this for his birthday for ice cream.
Thanks, Victoria I know the summer makes it hard for ice cream.
I love these! My boys would absolutely love them, especially Iron Man. They keep asking us to go see that movie. Pinned for sure.
Thank you, Mel!
I just saw these on Pinterest and had to hop over and tell you how much I love them! My boys will be so excited for these.
