Warning Do not use metal cutlery to remove the ice from the ice cream container, as this could lead to scratches! Tips and recommendations

• Always prepare the ice cream mixture in advance and refrigerate it, before further preparation in the ice cream maker. It will freeze faster this way.

• Blend or chop all ingredients evenly, to ensure even blending.

• Add bigger ingredients, e.g. pieces of chocolate or fruits, only after the ice cream mixture is slightly frozen, as otherwise they might not be blended in evenly.

• When adding alcohol, do so sparsely and towards the end of the freezing, as alcohol delays the freezing process.

• Use cream or whipped cream for creamier ice cream. The higher the fat content of the cream, the creamier the ice cream.

• Ice cream is usually of softer consistency. If you wish to further freeze the ice cream, place it in a separate, sealable, box.

• Do not store ice cream in open containers, as ice crystals might form. IM_KIM91221B_201216_V03_HR.indb 18IM_KIM91221B_201216_V03_HR.indb 18 16/12/2020 17:4416/12/2020 17:4419 English Fresh strawberry ice cream 250 g of fresh, ripe strawberries, stemmed and sliced
