Back to Basics Disney Ice Cream Maker ICMDIS

Date Published: 6/9/06

The fun shape, ease of operation, and delicious creamy results make the Back to Basics Disney Ice Cream Maker ICMDIS a sure winner for Disney fans of any age.

The fully assembled unit stands under 16 inches and features a bright red "cap," clear sidewalls, and round red "belly," which sits securely on two white rounded-oval non-slip feet. White polka dots decorating the sidewalls, a long red "tail-ish" cord, and gray sketches of Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto add to the charming illusion of a countertop cartoon character.

A frozen canister fits readily onto the gear assembly inside the base. The white plastic mixing paddle slides into the canister and the red cover screws into place. Once assembled, a simple push of the white on/off button starts the motor and the frozen bowl begins to turn. Pre-mixing and chilling your ingredients will also ensure tasty and satisfying results in less than 30 minutes.

This unit emits a soft mellow hum during use and the clear top allows for fun and easy monitoring of the churning process. It yields up to 1.5 quarts of a creamy, soft-serve style dessert or you can harden it up a bit with an hour or so in your freezer. Over a dozen recipes are included.

Frozen desserts are churned in the double-walled freezing canister of the Back to Basics Disney Ice Cream Maker ICMDIS, which must be properly frozen prior to use. Freezing time is at least 24 hours, depending on your freezer temperature, so storing the canister in the freezer when not in use will ensure ready access to frozen treats at any time.
