Spent the morning with 5 15 year olds making ice cream

We have:
Clotted cream vanilla
Honeycomb crunch
Fresh Peach swirled with fresh raspberry sauce
Rich espresso with walnuts
Rich chocolate with choc chips
Black Cherry with cherry brandy

Don't listen to the archers on Radio 4, Mercia - they've got an e-coli scare with their ice cream!

A star trek food replicator!!

I gotta get me one of those!

[Safiya]

oh i didnt see your link there painterman...... thats pretty expensive but i guess if you arent buying too much shopping its affordable..... im gutted its not a star trek replicator :((((((((((( i sooooo want one of those


no idea why shes suspended...i didnt even know she was

[Safiya]

lol red..thats what it said on pastas wiki link honest

*A disadvantage is that the freezer door has to be closed over the flat cord, which is plugged into the nearest power point outside, *

that would be sooooo dangerous with loads of kids around...


psst pasta.... i'll have a word with NASA next time im there.... they cost a bomb but you never have to shop cook or wash up again for the rest of your natural lol

For heaven's sake - how can you do anything wrong on a thread about ice cream? Or food of any kind?

[Safiya]

its not forced to have been in this thread starbuck

cheers red..... think id rather have a cheap one and feel safe :)

[starone]

I know safiya, but mercia is pretty harmless. Perhaps she will be let off tomorrow.

[bednobs]

it reads to me like Mercia logged on as PM, replied, then realised so asked "why is my daughter suspended". Not that it matters, (and not that i can talk!) but there ya go!
This thread has made me want to make ice cream now!
i don't have anything to flavour it though

Many years ago I created my own icecream receipe. The product was very well received by all who experienced it and it has become the stuff of legend today.

It requires equipment nothing more sophisticated than a hand powered beater, a saucepan on a stove and the freezer in the fridge.

I remember making it with the kids at preschool, (the kids are 25 now). The expression on her face as she tasted it by one of the mums who was initially somewhat sceptical of the ingredients is one of those moments that I will never forget.

I must make it again this (Australian) summer for old time's sake. Will be sure to invite that mum to the occasion.

[Safiya]

omg beso..what a wind up.... wheres the recipe or is it secret? :)

[beso]

I'll dig out the receipe and post it as soon as I find it.

It is a three part concoction involving a geletine / egg yolk / sugar mix with beaten egg white and whipped cream components added.

so do we know what mercia did do to get sent to the dungeons?!....

can i ask please,
does anyone know if you can buy one of those soft ice cream machines, you know the ones where you pull down the handle and you get a swirly mr whippy style cornet?
my aunty wants to get one, but not sure if you can buy a smaller type version, aimed for home use?
