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.

Summer is the season of fresh fruits and lychees are one of my all time favourites! The combination of the bergamot in Earl Grey and the fresh florals in lychee is such a bubble tea classic. IYKYK! Another one for Celine’s Choice.

The Good (what went well):

Layers of flavour: The bright florals of the lychee hits strong upfront, followed by the deeper and richer Earl Grey tea. Steeping the tea was definitely worth the effort!

The Bad (lessons learned):

Icy texture: There’s not enough body in this recipe. Lychees are mostly water and there’s just not a lot of substance holding it together. Add more fat or stabilizers next time.

Going back to the basics here. I felt like I was getting too fancy with these protein recipes when they should be easy staples with simple flavours. Re-introducing… a creamy, delicious, and protein-packed pint with chocolate, banana, and peanut butter. My favourite iteration yet!

The Good (what went well):

Creamy and sweet: The two ripe bananas really did the heavy lifting here for that natural sweetness and creamy texture.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Hard to blend: There was a lot going on in that small container. A smooth blend requires patience and constantly scraping the container sides to fully incorporate every ingredient.

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.

Wow! This pint was so tasty and the macros are amazing! It tastes just like a matcha latte soft-serve. This one is going on Celine’s Choice.

The Good (what went well):

Not too sweet: ⅓ cup sweetner with honey sounds like a lot but it turned out really balanced. The floral honey elevated the earthiness of the matcha.
Very mucha matcha: The matcha taste was strong! Matcha lovers can add ½–1 tbsp more for an extra-rich pint.

The Bad (lessons learned):

A smidge too beany: The tofu taste was a bit stronger than I envisioned, and it tasted like a matcha latte with soy-milk substitute. Add less tofu for the next one and some more fat.

Version II of this classic combination. Pistachio instant pudding mix was added for extra flavour and texture. I ran out of 0% ultra-filtered milk and used whole milk instead, which made the ice cream a bit creamier so that was nice. Then I thought to add Greek yogurt to increase the solids volume and protein, but the flavours just didn’t work well together this time.

The Good (what went well):

Rich nutty taste and smoother texture: The pistachio instant pudding mix masks the protein powder taste and helps to create a silky smooth texture.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Slight sour taste: This was probably the Greek yogurt. The strong acidity does not pair well with chocolate.
The ice cream melted way too fast: In an effort to make the creamiest pint, I may have flown too close to the sun. There are a few reasons for this: too much salt, too much sugar, and low fat content.

What is more satisfying than hitting your protein goals in the form of ice cream? This recipe is one of my favourite flavour combinations: chocolate, peanut butter, and banana. Despite a strong protein powder taste, this pint was very delicious.

The Good (what went well):

The final texture was creamy: Despite what the instructions say, if the first spin is too powdery, then re-spinning before mix-ins help to create a smoother texture.
The nuts were evenly incorporated: Make a well for the mix-ins.

The Bad (lessons learned):

Protein powder aftertaste: Add in stronger flavours (e.g. sweetner, cocoa, peanut butter) to mask the taste.
The powders stuck to the bottom of the pint: Pour in some liquids before powder.

The very very first pint! I love a good fruit smoothie and thought that I could test out the “Creamify Technology” by churning a frozen smoothie into ice cream. Turns out, it’s not quite a 1:1 translation.

The Good (what went well):

The texture was really smooth and creamy: Make sure the pint is fully frozen and push down the ice before re-spinning.

The Bad (lessons learned):

The taste was very bland: Add more sugar and fat.
There was a slightly bitter after-taste: The bromelain inside pineapples breaks down milk proteins into bitter peptides. Either cook the pineapples, use canned pineapples, or use milk-alternatives.
No blueberry flavour: Yeah, that’s my bad. I just really like blueberries, but it’s really an odd ingredient in pina colada. Save the blueberries for smoothies.
