About:

Step into a world of vibrant colours and delightful flavours with our Skittles Ice Cream recipe, an imaginative twist on traditional ice cream. This fun, crazy flavour combination is a treat for the taste buds. Perfect for those looking to add a playful touch to their dessert menu.

1. High-Quality Dairy for Creamy Texture:

The foundation of this whimsical ice cream is a blend of whole milk and cream. You’ll create a rich, creamy base with the distinct Skittles flavour. Adding skimmed milk powder enhances the ice cream’s body and texture.

2. Sweet Base with a Candy Twist:

Mix sugar with ice cream mix stabilizer. The stabilizer helps keep the ice cream’s texture smooth and prevents ice crystals from forming. Dissolve this mixture with the skim milk powder into the milk using a hand blender, ensuring it’s fully dissolved with no lumps.

3. Infusing with Skittles Flavor:

Add Skittles to the milk mixture. As the Skittles dissolve while cooking, they infuse the ice cream base with their fruity, tangy flavour and vibrant colours, creating a fun and tasty concoction.

4. Cooking to Perfection:

Combine the creamy milk mixture with the dissolved sugar and Skittles. Cook this mixture over medium heat, stirring often to prevent sticking. Once it reaches 65°C, add the sugar and ice cream mix. Continue cooking and stirring until the temperature reaches 75°C. This process pasteurizes the mixture and allows the flavors to fully develop.

5. Straining and Chilling:

Pour the cooked mixture through a sieve into a container to remove any undissolved Skittles pieces, ensuring a smooth final texture. Chill the mixture thoroughly before churning. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect consistency in your ice cream.

6. Churning and Freezing:

Once chilled, churn the ice cream according to your maker’s instructions. This process aerates the ice cream, contributing to a light, creamy texture. After stirring, freeze the ice cream until it’s firm.
