How people cook with it

- Served on its own
- Topped with fruit
- With cake or pie
- In milkshakes
Allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. This makes it easier to serve and enhances its creamy texture. It can be enjoyed straight from the tub as a simple treat. For a more substantial dessert, pair it with warm baked goods like brownies or apple crumble. It also forms the foundation for delicious homemade milkshakes when blended with milk and other flavorings.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to harder, scoopable ice creams, this soft scoop variety has a lower freezing point, resulting in a smoother, more yielding texture. This makes it easier to serve without a struggle, and it melts more readily, contributing to its creamy mouthfeel.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the tub tightly to prevent freezer burn and maintain its creamy consistency. Store in the freezer. It is best consumed within a reasonable time after opening to ensure optimal freshness and texture.
