And thanks to the fact it doesn’t have any of the componentry required to freeze the bowl, it’s also a much more compact option than the Sage or Magimix models. However, you would certainly need a big kitchen. The Sage is a whale of an ice cream maker, measuring nearly 40cm in width. If you’re struggling for storage, we wouldn’t recommend this device. Like the Lakeland Model, this is a machine that requires you to pre-freeze the metal mixing bowl, and considering that, it's not cheap; in fact, the Duronic Model further down this list does a similar job for a third of the price. While it's more effort than just nipping down to the shop to get a pint of Ben and Jerry's, you'll be astounded at the results. We deal with many manufacturers and can supply 1,000's of products but try to promote the most popular brands, so if you can't see what you are looking for please call us and we will source it for you.

The fact you need to pre-freeze also means that there's not much room for spontaneity (unless you store the mixing bowl in your freezer all of the time). We've spent the summer testing out some of the best models available on the market. Read on for our thoughts. How we tested In each machine featured, we made around one and a half pints of ice cream using the best method that we’ve come across, which is the New York Times’ “Master Ice Cream Recipe”. However, it does absolutely everything you need an ice cream maker to do. If you need convincing that homemade ice cream is better than anything else you can buy, we'd recommend buying this. Once you’re convinced, you can move on to a more expensive model. As you'd imagine, there are hundreds of ice cream recipes out there, but put simplistically, you're basically making a cold custard that you then put into an ice cream maker.

The samples were frozen for 24 hours before this test and given five minutes to defrost before being served. What's better than creating your favourite indulgent ice cream flavours from scratch with an ice cream maker?Pros: Don’t have to freeze the bowl before making the ice cream; looks great on a countertop; sleek interface Although it's easier with a dedicated machine, you can make ice cream without an ice cream maker.

So the big news from the Buffalo Farm is that we have launched our first new product from the Buffalo Farm Dairy - Buffalo Ice Cream made from real Buffalo milk from our own herd - and it's awesome even if I do say so myself. Available in Buffalo Milk, Raspberry Ripple, Mint Choc Chip, Chocolate, Strawberry and Salted Toffee. Peanut butter and jam - a classic combo. Peanut butter is a great thing to mix into ice cream, as it somehow makes it even creamier. They scored on how well the chocolate chips had spread and how creamy, airy and smooth the texture of the ice cream was.

As you can tell from our roundup, ice cream makers can be broadly split into two categories: those that require you to pre-freeze the mixing bowl, and those that don't. That fact is also illustrated by the way the machine makes ice cream; instead of the paddle moving in a circle, as it does in most ice cream makers, in the Cuisinart model it stays stationary while the frozen bowl spins around it, which looks extremely satisfying.
