THERE'S nothing like homemade ice cream, especially with freshly picked fruit and favorite ingredients. It always tastes better than store-bought.
As summer descends with its heat and humidity, homemade ice cream recipes, molds and ice cream machines are getting popular - to avoid artificial additives, have fun and be creative.
More than 26,000 sales of ice cream machines have been reported over the past 30 days on Taobao.com. A family-style ice cream machine costs 200 yuan to 500 yuan (US$32-81) and can make all kinds of ice cream with milk, yogurt, fruits, nuts, syrups, choclate chips and many ingredients.
The simple process - electric machinese do all the work, you don't have to use a hand-crank - makes it easy to be creative.
Internet users post photos of their homemade treats, such as melon ice cream made with fresh pieces of melon and served in a scooed-out melon shell.
Molds for making popsicles on sticks are among the best-sellers, especially those that resemble the popsicles made 20 years ago. Using freshly squeezed juices, sugar and water, it's easy to make flavors not found on the market. Or, they can be made with ice cream. The process of making ice cream and popsicles reminds many people of their childhood, when ice cream was a luxury, a special treat, and varieties were limited.
