Ice cream

I'd love a tub of Jude's Ginger Spice icecream. Sadly it's very hard to find.

I'm of Italian origin, so I'm an ice cream snob ( my only snobbery) so I'd like an artisan gelato, preferably fruit flavoured.

I don’t drink and I don’t smoke but ice cream is my vice and I go to the ice cream parlour in town at least once a week and sometimes twice and I have a wonderful concoction with strawberries and bananas Three different sorts of ice cream topped off with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles….😋

A good quality vanilla for me. My DD says it's boring.

We had a mini Magnum after dinner yesterday. Haven't had one in years. The best bit is biting off the dark chocolate from round the outside

I'm in Liverpool right now....I've just had a Cheshire made coconut scoop in a waffle cone 😋

I’d always choose a sorbet (preferably lemon or blackcurrant) over ice cream, it’s never been something I crave, as I’m not keen on milk or cream and it doesn’t like me either. If I did have some, it would need to be strong flavoured to disguise the underlying dairy taste, like rum and raisin, or a flavoured yoghurt one.

The highlight of any holiday for me was always a knickerbocker glory. I think they used to sell them in Wimpy bars.

The hotel we go to makes their own liquorice ice cream. It’s marvellous.

I used to like a chocolate or coffee and nut ice cream cornet but they are impossible to find now.
Maybe because of nut allergies?

Salted caramel is my latest favourite ice cream

Ooh, I do like ice cream - but it has to be good ice cream, none of the cheapy stuff! Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia used to be one of the favourites, but I haven't seen it in ages. There are very few flavours I don't like, to be honest - but my favourites include pistachio, anything with almonds/amaretto and cherries in it - and I also love a nice sorbet. Vanilla - yes, has to be good 'proper' vanilla - to have with lovely fresh berries and maybe some meringue.

Coffee ice cream. Why is it so difficult to find now?

My favourite always- I buy it from Carte d'Or.

How about recipes for homemade? I am particularly looking for NO EGG ice-cream and sorbets.

Ice cream is my vice too and especially on days like this. We’ve been into our nearest town today to a local cafe that make there own. Not surprisingly the fridge was half empty but I had raspberry cheesecake flavour in a tub. I’m not a fan of cones.
Yesterday at another well known (to the area) place I had strawberries and cream. A limited edition for Wimbledon.
I have to say chocolatelovinggran I think the best ice cream I have had was in Italy and the best flavour never found anywhere else was fig flavour. Just amazing.

That sounds delish😋

We didn't have a freezer when I was small - or even when my own children were little - so I remember how much of a treat ice-cream was!
I always loved vanilla best. 👌

Once we had a freezer If we had it at all it was always home-made. It was still A treat though.

Now we sometimes buy an ice cream if the grandchildren will be visiting- it isn't so much of a treat to them though. 🙁

My friend called round with a tub for each of us of raspberry icecream from the Wee Isle dairy on the Isle of Gigha.
It was delish - a new flavour from them. Thankyou friend.

Living in Alton. New Forest ice cream made with fresh cream is sold in several places. 👐👵😆

I make ice cream for the dogs as a very occasional treat. Mashed banana, smooth peanut butter and greek yoghurt. Mixed and thinned with a little water before freezing. I have to be honest, there are worse things.

I think Tesco and M&S both do a coffee ice cream.

Yes you can get coffee ice cream but not with nuts in any more!!

My favourite 😋

I’ve just eaten a cherry magnum, very nice. I also like salted caramel. Anyone seen any banana ice cream ?
