6 Awesome Ice Cream Hacks You Need to Know
Ice cream is one of the most popular eating items in every part of the world. No matter you go for an ice cream cone, cup, or a whole box, you can find a wide range of flavors, colors, and textures to enjoy. Ice cream can make your bad day a little better and can turn your good time into something more memorable and fun.
Now that you know what makes ice cream great, let’s take a look at some of the things that you can do to make the most out of your ice cream eating experience.
Following are some of the most popular ice cream hacks that you must know to have more fun while eating ice cream
- Store the Box Upside Down
One of the biggest concerns of most people who store ice cream in the freezer is coming home to a melted pint or a box. The taste and texture of melted ice cream are not a very pleasant sight.
Try keeping your ice cream pint upside down in your freezer to avoid this situation. This way the whole box gets the necessary cooling and not just the upper part.
Another thing you need to avoid is keeping the box in the door of the freezer. The frequent opening and closing can melt your ice cream and destroy its taste.
- Use Hot Knife for Slicing and Scooping
By hot we mean to dip the knife in the hot water and then use it to cut the ice cream with little to no effort. One of the hardest and most frustrating things is when you are not able to cut the frozen ice cream that you take out from the freezer.
Using a warm knife will melt the part it touches due to heat and you can instantly get the exact amount of ice cream you want from the pint.
- Try Out a Homemade Ice Cream Sandwich
You will be glad to know that you don’t need special skills or ingredients to make this tasty and quick treat for yourself. You just need a regular ice cream cup or a scoop from the pint and some big and freshly baked cookies.
Put a big chunk of ice cream between two cookies evenly and you have your very own homemade ice cream sandwich. So, try out this more pleasant way of eating ice cream and have fun.
- Keep Your Ice Cream in an Air Sealed Zipper Bag
The carton which you use for storing ice cream should not have any air inside. The air might interact with the product and cause it to melt or go bad entirely.
For this, you can use a zipper bag and press all the air from inside it. This way you will get fresh and non-melted ice cream whenever you want.
- Throw Vanilla Ice Cream into an Almost Empty Nutella Jar
I think we all hate it when there is just a little bit of Nutella remaining on the sides of the jar that we cannot use for anything else. Well, what if we told you that you can in fact do it. You can put some scoops of ice cream into that jar and enjoy a tasty vanilla-Nutella combination.
This way you will not have to throw anything out and your ice cream will also taste more flavorful.
- Use a Small Marshmallow at the Bottomed of a Waffle Cone
This can help you avoid getting your hands messy when the ice cream starts melting from the cone. A marshmallow can absorb this melting ice cream and you can enjoy the waffle cone without worrying about creating a mess. Another perk of using a marshmallow is that sweet surprise that you get on your very last bite of the cone.
