Ice Cream Recipes

Welcome to my collection of ice cream, gelato, sorbet, granita, popsicles and frozen dessert recipes. There are easy no-churn scoops, fruity summer ice blocks, special ice cream cakes, playful sundaes and a few wonderfully unusual flavours too. Start with vanilla gelato, black sesame ice cream, mango sorbet or Viennetta ice cream cake, then wander through my desserts, mango recipes and strawberry recipes for more sweet ideas.

UnFried Ice Cream With Butterscotch Sauce!
Featured ice creams recipe UnFried Ice Cream With Butterscotch Sauce!

This recipe is actually a low fat version of a high fat food: deep fried ice cream, the stalwart dessert option of Chinese restaurants. I got this recipe from my friend Tania who got it from Skinnytaste and it is for a person who loves the idea of something crunchy and saucey on the outside of a ball of ice cream but doesn't want to get into all of that deep frying palaver. It's unfried deep fried ice cream made by rolling vanilla ice cream in crunchy cereal crumbs to simulate the crunch of a breaded deep fried golden coat.

Ice Cream Recipes

Ice cream scoops and frozen flavours

No-churn and easy ice cream recipes

These are the recipes to reach for when you want creamy homemade ice cream without fuss, from classic vanilla to limoncello, coconut ice and black sesame.

Fruit, nut and fresh-flavoured ice creams

Fruit, nuts, yoghurt, coffee and fragrant ingredients give these ice creams a lovely sense of season and personality.

Quirky and grown-up ice cream flavours

Some of my favourite frozen desserts are the ones that sound surprising first, then make complete sense once you taste them.

Sorbets, granitas and icy treats

Sorbets, granitas and frozen drinks

These are lighter, sharper and often quicker than ice cream, with fruit, coffee, chocolate and cocktails turned into icy desserts.

Popsicles, ice blocks and frozen fruit treats

These are sunny, colourful and easy to portion, whether you want fruit pops, cocktail-style ice blocks or chocolate-dipped bananas.

Frozen desserts for sharing

Ice cream cakes, bombes and celebration desserts

These are the showier frozen desserts: cakes, bombes, puddings, fridge tarts and party menus that make ice cream feel like an event.

Ice cream sandwiches

Croissants, cookies, macarons, s'mores and other biscuits make brilliant homes for ice cream, especially when you want a playful dessert.

Sundaes, sauces and plated frozen desserts

These are easy to serve after dinner, from affogato and Peach Melba to an ice cream sauce you will want to put on everything.
