Ice Cream Makers

By: Garnett Foards

I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!

Little kids and big kids alike love the cool, creamy taste of homemade ice cream on a hot, sunny day. Buying frozen concoctions at the store or supermarket is always an option, but for a true taste sensation try making ice cream with fresh ingredients right at home.

Ice cream makers take simple ingredients like cream, milk, sugar and flavorings, and magically create delicious ice cream at the touch of a button. These marvelous machines can also deliver frozen beverages, sorbets, yogurt and fruit juice slush. If you or your kids are looking for a frozen tasty treat on a hot summer day, your ice cream maker can whip one up.

It's incredible to think that a machine that brings such sweet joy can really be so simple:

1. Inside the ice cream maker, seated in its belly, are storage containers. You will pour your blended ingredients into this storage container.

2. The mixture is drawn from the storage container into a freezing chamber edged with refrigerant liners.

3. The ingredients are then fluffed to creamy perfection by agitator blades attached to electric motors.

4. In the refrigerated chamber, the ice cream sets and becomes firm.

5. To serve, simply raise the handle on the dispenser unit, and the ice cream will fall into your bowl or cone.

Ice cream-making used to be a real chore involving entire families. Fresh ingredients were placed into a metal container that was kept cool with ice and salt. Everyone in the family would take turns stirring the mixture with a wooden paddle, or turning a crank connected to paddles. It was a lot of work, but the results were so sweet. Ice cream makers evolved over the years, with such advancements as motorized paddle agitators. Now, making fresh, delicious ice cream really is as simple as gathering the ingredients and pushing a button.

Any one who has children, grandchildren, or a sweet tooth can create delicious treats any time with a home made ice cream machine.
