Why You Should Make Your Own Ice Cream - 8 Simple Reasons
I have spent many years making my own ice cream. For my friends when I was at college, and now for my friends, family and kids. I am always asked why? and lots of other questions about making ice cream at home. So now I have put all my reasons together. This is why I make my own ice cream and why I tell everyone that they should also.
1. Ok I love ice cream and so do my children. As a family we eat a lot of it even in winter. It's costly to buy regularly. It all adds up. When I make it, I make it cheaper, so it saves on the food bill.
2. Having kids I am now more conscious of being 'green' and kinder to the planet. Making my own ice cream, is one way I can decrease my food miles. And instead of paying for ice cream to travel halfway around the country to me, everything I use for it I get on my own doorstep.
3. I get total control over what goes in. So I don't have to spend time reading the very small print on the back of the carton, to see what they have managed to sneak in there. Only good wholesome naturalness goes into mine.
4. I know so many people, my kids friends especially with allergies of all sorts. I can leave them out of the ice cream, so everyone get to enjoy it.
5. I'm never stuck for something to bring to a friends for dinner. I usually make up a batch specially to bring along for dessert.
6. I get the kids involved too. They love it and sometimes bring their friends over especially to make ice cream. It's great on a rainy day when they are hanging around the house looking for trouble.
7. For me it can be a great way of getting in some sneaky nutrients into their diet. They love fruit on their ice cream in funny shapes, I sprinkle nuts over it, and I even sprinkle oats on it sometimes.
8. I never make full fat anymore. I started gradually using lower fat produce and no-one even noticed the difference. So I have no worries about the kids getting chubby.
There it is. My ice cream tastes great. Looks wonderful and costs less. I hope you start making yours too. It really is so much more rewarding than buying it. - 17268

Sometimes I make ice cream manually, when I have plenty of time, and when the children need to be entertained. Most of the time I use and electric ice cream maker. It's quick, almost makes itself, and it always come out just great. I like this website, that I have used and others have used. Do take a look if you are considering buying an ice cream maker.
