Ice-Cream in a Ziplock Bag in Se7en Steps!

We have made ice-cream before on this blog and nearly all our birthday cakes are made from ice-cream, but what about this: Ice-cream in a ziplock bag? Believe it or not? This one sure has the WOW-Factor. I found it in Family Fun years ago and tried it with limited success (I didn’t use enough ice!) but then I watched this movie from instructables, and if you can get past the vegetable marketing, it gives a great demo.

Let’s Meet the Players:

You will need se7en things:

• 1 large ziplock bag
• 1 small ziplock bag
• 1 tub of cream
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
• 1 or two tablespoons of castor sugar
• Enough ice cubes to half full your large ziplock bag
• 1 cup of granular salt.

Let’s play the Game:

• Step 1: Mix together the cream, vanilla essence and castor sugar in a jug.
  

Step 2: Pour into the smaller ziplock bag and seal it shut.



• Step 3: Fill your large ziplock with ice.

  

• Step 4: Add the salt to the ice.

  
  

• Step 5: Pop your small sealed bag of ice cream mixture into your large bag and seal the large bag too.

  

• Step 6: Now you are ready to shake, rattle and roll.

  

  Some people come better prepared than others!

  

• Step 7: Between five and ten minutes of the great shake you will have some delicious soft serve. Which didn’t last long enough for a glamorous picture.

  

That’s it – Have Fun!
