Fun and Delicious!

This simple, futuristic device is as fun as the old fashioned hand-cranked ice cream machine. It is so portable. Nothing tastes better homemade ice cream made from simple and fresh ingredients. My family had so much fun playing with this ice cream maker. It only takes about 25 minutes, the ball rolls or spins very easily, and it's very simple to use. We're anxious to experiment with more variations and creating our own ice cream recipes. One hint: for a firmer textured ice cream use non-alcoholic vanilla flavoring, vanilla beans or vanilla sugar since alcohol will keep the ice cream from hardening as much.

Awesome! It really works. My young adult boys even enjoyed tossing and rolling the ice cream ball. It is a perfect gift.

Ice Cream Making Ball

I took it camping last weekend and the kids loved making the ice cream. Some of the adults helped too. Everyone enjoyed eating it. It was a great camping activity. The recipe was so easy - cream, vanilla and sugar. It kept everyone busy for quite a while and stimulated a lot of conversation.

This is great. I love being able to make my own ice cream. Since I am diabetic I can make mine sugar free!

Ice Cream Maker

Two of my special education students needed a subject to do their science fair project on. They liked this idea and I ordered it. We made the ice cream and it worked very well. The students liked the ice cream and shared a little with the principal. I was very pleased with the instructions and how well it worked. The students enjoyed doing it and I hope to make some more at home, with my grandson.

Loads of Fun!

The Play & Freeze Ice Cream Maker was loads of fun for our young family! We sat on the living room floor with our daughters, ages 3 & 7, and rolled the blue ball that was going to make ice cream! We made some games with this, too. We would ask a question and roll it to someone and they'd have to answer. (Also random rolling, reciting memory verses, and of course lots of giggles for about 20 minutes.) About halfway through I emptied the ice chamber of some melted water. Be careful, the water is very icy cold. (I recommend using household rubber gloves.) and restocked with more crushed ice, ice cubes, and rock salt. I also took it to my daughter's 2nd grade class for a cooking class. One group made ice cream while the other made apple crisp. Lots of smiles, giggles, oohs and ahhhs when they got to taste the final product! Thanks!
