It’s cold, sweet and creamy with an incredible burst of fruit-filled, nutty, or chocolatey flavour, simply refreshing especially during the hot sweat filled afternoons. Although not your typical healthy snack, when eaten in moderation has some surprising health benefits :D. In fact, according to the OZ blog ice cream can help you loose weight, who would have thought!
A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that women who ate at least one daily serving of full-fat dairy products, such as ice cream, gained less weight than those who didn’t. Now, that doesn’t mean you can sit down with a tub of ice cream every night and expect to lose weight, but half-cup serving of vanilla or chocolate ice cream – which has about 140 calories, 7g fat and 14g sugar – can be a reasonable part of your diet”
Making your own ice cream maximizes this benefit, as it gives you full control of what goes into it, because there are a lot of additives added to store bought ice-creams to help preserve the creamy texture. Making your own batch of this mouthwatering dessert will enable you play with flavours of your choice, who says you can’t have an orange-coffee flavoured ice cream?
