This Week in Ice Cream Club – That Snow-Catching Hummingbird!

What a week! Ice creams and hummingbirds and filmmaking…! Oh my!

I Scream for October – Day 6

When a vampire wakes up after a long day’s rest, they’re typically pretty logey. Some keep a nice drinkbox of blood next to the coffin for that evening pick-me-up, some go and grab themselves a fresh barista right away, and some have made the big leap to coffee-based coffins. The truly savvy modern vampire hasContinue reading “I Scream for October – Day 6”

This Week in Ice Cream Club – We All Scream!

Hey there Ice Cream Club! The weather’s getting cool, but it’s not as cool as you! Hallowe’en and the season of scary is upon us. Did you ever chant ‘I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!’ when you were a kid? How about just now? That clever phrase is the inspiration forContinue reading “This Week in Ice Cream Club – We All Scream!”

I Scream for October – Day 3

Hey Ice Cream Club! Did you ever feel like you’re lost in an implacable, endless dessert? Like a huge cheesecake? Or maybe a gigantic bowl of cheesecake ice cream? If that sounds corny, it is. I took that corn, roasted it, and made ice cream out of it. And then I made skulls out ofContinue reading “I Scream for October – Day 3”

I Scream for October – Day 2

Hey Ice Cream Club! I was just investigating the Slimer Mansion with the toy Ghostbusters. As one does. There was rumour of ice cream ghosts about, and we found one… or rather one found us! It’s a peaches and cream ice cream ghost, with macerated peach chunks in a vanilla ice cream base. The SlimerContinue reading “I Scream for October – Day 2”

I Scream for October

Hey there Ice Cream Club! I’m doing some spooky Ice Creams and some spookier photos all month! Here’s my first entry, a peach-basil sorbet pumpkin patch. I used molds for the pumpkins, and parsley for all the foliage. Have a spooky October!

This Week in Ice Cream Club – For the Birds

Hey there Ice Cream Club! Aren’t you awesome! You’re peachy keen, and so is a batch of sorbet I just made. It’s peach basil (again! How tedious!) and I’m doing some fun shapes for the coming week using silicone molds. I’m going to try and up my photo game for the month leading up toContinue reading “This Week in Ice Cream Club – For the Birds”

This Week in Ice Cream Club – Gimme S’more!

Hey there Ice Cream Club! After a week of grey hazy skies from the wildfire smoke, we had a delightful display of sunshine this afternoon. The air is much nicer, too, but even though today is the last day of Summer, it’s getting cold. We’re unlikely to get nights that are too hot to sleep,Continue reading “This Week in Ice Cream Club – Gimme S’more!”

This Week in Ice Cream Club – A Week that Wasn’t

Hey out there Ice Cream Club! You look like you’ve got it all together! I sure wish I felt that way. While I had a pretty decent week this past week, I didn’t do much on the ice cream front. I even messed up a batch, because I let time get away from me andContinue reading “This Week in Ice Cream Club – A Week that Wasn’t”

Cookies in Ice Cream

Cookies and Cream ice cream is one of the primary reasons I got into making ice cream. Whether they’re crunchy or soft, the texture of the cookies is usually great, and they add a counterpoint of sweet to the ice cream base. It’s common to see Cookies and Cream done with chocolate cookie bits, whichContinue reading “Cookies in Ice Cream”
