# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The texture is incredibly smooth and creamy, just like premium store bought ice cream but made entirely in your own kitchen
  • Kids go absolutely wild for the authentic bubblegum flavor and fun candy pieces scattered throughout
  • You can customize the colors and mix ins to match any birthday party theme or celebration
02 -
  • Bubblegum flavoring varies wildly between brands, so start with a half teaspoon and add more drop by drop until it tastes exactly right
  • The ice cream needs those full 6 hours to freeze properly, or you will end up with a soft serve consistency instead of scoopable perfection
03 -
  • Chill your mixing bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes before whipping the cream for faster results
  • A silicone spatula works best for folding to maintain as much air in the mixture as possible
