We’re just starting to feel the heat from the first sunshine of spring which indicates that summer’s finally on its way. And what’s the one thing we all want in the summer? Ice cream!

Over recent years, ice cream has become more sophisticated, with luxury brands producing hundreds of lip-smacking combinations of flavours. The natural ingredients and flavourings of these high-end products satisfy our need for good-quality food and the taste is always amazing. Unfortunately, artisan ice cream comes with a hefty price tag, making it more of an occasional treat than something you can enjoy every day. 

But what if there was a cost-effective way of enjoying high-quality ice cream whenever you fancied it, without having to worry about the price? And what if there was a way of controlling the ingredients so you only ever have flavours you like, and nothing is artificial?

How does an ice cream maker work?

The Sensio ice cream maker makes making ice cream a lot easier than it is to say that sentence! For basic ice creams, pretty much the only preparation you need to do is put the container in the freezer for a few hours before you use it, then pour everything into the maker and leave it to churn. In less than half an hour, you’ll have delicious home-made ice cream - no artificial ingredients, no preservatives, just amazing flavours. And the more ice cream you make, the more money you’ll save by not buying expensive luxury ice creams. 

Here’s one of our favourite recipes to make in our ice cream maker. It’s absolutely delicious, is made of 100% natural ingredients and is very easy to make!
