Overall Rating: ★★★★☆

Absolutely WOW! It’s refreshing, satiating, and oh so satisfying! We won’t look at the macros for this one—it’s a well deserved treat.

The Good (what went well):

Load up the mangoes: The tropical mango flavour really came through! About half the pint was filled with mangoes before blending.
Salt is the bridge: This recipe calls for A LOT of salt! Don’t be afraid! It really ties the entire flavour together.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Slightly icy texture: The only thing missing from this pint is that incredibly smooth and creamy texture. Perhaps simmering the mango puree would reduce the water bound by fruit fibers.

Overall Rating: ★★★★☆

Pistachio might be one of my favourite ice cream / gelato flavours. This one was also inspired by the delicious layer of creamy cheese foam that you might find in bubble teas. This was delicious, silky, and Mum Approved. I enjoyed it but I also have very high standards for pistachio.

The Good (what went well):

Good texture and protein: Cottage cheese is already a powerfood in itself! It provides great macros (relatively low calories and high protein) and structure for a silky smooth base.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Chunky nuts: The pistachios stayed strong through the MIX-IN spin cycle and stayed mostly in tact. For a more evenly distributed flavour and smoother texture, the pistachios could be lightly crushed beforehand or blended into the mixture.

Taste	Macros	Ease
★★★☆☆	★★★☆☆	★★☆☆☆

Sweet corn kernels (2 cups / cut from ~2 cobs)
Butter, unsalted (1 ⅓ tbsp)
Salt (⅜ tsp)

Overall Rating: ★★★☆☆

This flavour combination was a fun surprise, it tastes a little like Cinnamon Toast Crunch X Frosted Flakes. While I enjoyed the warmth of this pint, I think I preferred the previous version of this recipe that was more pudding-like and had a strong corn aroma.

The Good (what went well):

A little extra lemon juice: Trust the process! Right after I added a whole tablespoon of lemon juice, I thought I seriously messed up. The acidity overpowered everything! However, flavours change when they freeze and the final product was perfectly bright and balanced.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Cinnamon overpowered corn: For the cinnamon lovers, this might not even be a bad thing. But, my vision for this recipe was corn-focused, and this one was just too cinnamon-y.
Icy texture: Bring back the tofu, don’t skimp on the butter.

Blend everything together.
Freeze for 24 hours.
Spin on ICE CREAM (push down and re-spin with a splash of milk if needed).

Okay, first things first, I know purple sweet potato and ube are not the same thing! Ube grows on vine and has bark-like skin while sweet potatoes are tubers that grow underground. However, I think this was a really close attempt! Another one for Zebby’s Pick. The rich, roasted, starchy undertones of the sweet potato was suprisingly comforting.

The Good (what went well):

Vanilla: Brought a subtle sweetness that mimicked the natural fragrance of ube.
Classic coconut pairing: Need I say more? Coconut milk immediately brings the tropical vibes.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Thick pudding-like texture: Sweet potatoes are quite starchy. Microwaving heats up too fast and doesn’t give time for naturally occurring enzymes (amylases) to break down starches into sugars. Bake/roast the sweet potato next time and use less of it. Also mix/blend gently to avoid overworking the starches.

Inspired by black sesame glutinuous rice balls (tangyuan), this recipe went heavy on the sesame taste and aroma. The tofu was added for body but it really didn’t work with the nutty flavour profile. I am a huge fan of sesame and will definitely try this one again.

The Good (what went well):

Rich sesame aroma: Sesame oil was a great touch.

The Bad (lessons learned):

The texture was gummy: The xanthan gum was too much. This recipe probably doesn’t need it.
Too beany and not enough nutty: Tofu synergizes with grassy and starchy foods (e.g., corn, sweet potato, red bean) and not so much with roasted and fermented foods (e.g., sesame, coffee, caramel). In an attempt to boost the nuttiness with almond extract, I went a little overboard with it and the aftertaste became slightly bitter. No tofu or almond extract next time.
The acidity was too bright: Lemon juice is quite powerful. Use something more subtle like rice vinegar.

Overall Rating: ★★★☆☆

This pint tastes just like a sweet corn tofu pudding (douhua) that you might find in a Chinese dessert shop. I think my momma would approve (not too sweet)! This is the first recipe to make the list for Zebby’s Pick! Fantastic aroma, flavour, and texture.

The Good (what went well):

Fragrant buttery sweet corn: The toasting and steeping steps do the heavy-lifting to draw out the essence of corn.
Butter: Real butter brings an irreplaceable level of depth to the flavour.

The Bad (lessons learned):

The flavour was a bit flat: More salt, acidicity, and spices (e.g. cinnamon, cardamom, or nutmeg) would provide some balance.

Overall Rating: ★★★★☆

Wow, I’m genuinely impressed by how the flavours came together! I wanted to get a little fancy with the fresh strawberries and lime zest, and it was definitely worth the effort. Fragrant, fresh, sweet, tangy, and rich, this pint perfectly captures the essence of a decadent slice of cheesecake. First recipe to make Celine’s Choice!

The Good (what went well):

Fresh strawberries are so good: In general, fresh fruits are a great way to add volume, flavour, and fiber into an icy dessert.
Cheesecake flavour did not taste artifical: The secret was pure vanilla extract!
The lime zest was worth the effort: For the citrus lovers, a sprinkle of zest on top delivers a fresh aroma and a pop of contrast that cuts through the richness of the cream.

The Bad (lessons learned):

The Lotus Biscoff cookies were pulverized: Manually mix into the ice cream to get bit sized pieces.
The yogurt flavour was noticeable: Did not successfully trick my brain into believing that Greek yogurt was the next cream cheese. Use cream cheese for a more authentic cheesecake flavour.
