Class Time - The Ice Cream

Remember the recent post for the Chocolate truffle no-churn ice cream taken from “delicious.” magazine March issue - here's another alternative. All you need to do is substitute the milk chocolate, chopped into small chunks with a 125g bag of Terry's chocolate orange minis - they are miniature segments of “whole chocolate orange” fame – cut the segments in half and fold into your ice cream mixture. They are widely available in all the major supermarkets.

Check out these cute pots – I wanted the ice cream to look good and I think these do the trick – you'd never believe they are paper baking cases and not ceramic but I thought they'd make perfect disposable ice cream pots. They are sold in different colours – fuscia, pale pink, pale blue and what you see below – aqua. 60mm – 24 pack - £2.95.

For those who live in the Northamptonshire, UK area and in particular Finedon, there's a hidden gem called SCS Packinging – Units 1 & 2 Orchard Road, Finedon, Wellingborough, NN9 5JG – 01933 681681 - email : sales@scspackaging.co.uk – www.scspackaging.co.uk.

They have a small shop open to the public – or should I say Aladdin's cave! If you want anything packaging related or cake making stuff, from boards of every shape and size to paste, decorations and a fab selection of great quality serviettes – this is the place for you!

P.s. Want to make the most of your ice cream treat? Did you know that you can unroll the rim of the pot, open it out like a flower – turn it inside out and lick it clean of ice cream.

How much fun would that be!
