Frozen Treats - Ice Cream, Sorbet etc

One of the best ways to end a meal is with a frozen dessert.   I've got lots of homemade ice cream recipes, sorbets, frozen yogurts and ice lollies.

When you make your own frozen desserts you know exactly what goes into them.   There are no hidden nasties and they're a great way to include extra fruit in your family's diet.

We especially love the banana fudge ice cream recipe as well as the mango sorbet.   These recipes have become family favourites and in summer I use my ice cream maker on a regular basis.

You can make these ice cream recipes without an ice cream maker but I find it is so easy to use and enables me to get the texture just right.   In my opinion it's definitely been a worthwhile investment.

A lot of these recipes contain fresh fruit.   Sometimes it is cooked and cooled first and sugar is sometimes added.   I like to avoid using too much sugar but with some frozen desserts, the sugar helps keep them scoopable as well as making sure they still have lots of flavour.   Even if you are trying to make recipes that are lower in sugar then I still believe these recipes are healthier than many shop-bought alternatives.
