On this the very first day of 2012, I would like to give props to one of the best investments my family has ever made. The Cuisinart Supreme Commercial Quality Ice Cream Maker. Yah, the price tag will make you do a little gasp, but IT IS WORTH IT. Here in CR there is pretty much 2 major players in the ice cream game, POPS and Dos Pinos (on a side note, I believe Dos Pinos has a monopoly on every cow in CR). Now the issue with these two is their prices. A half gallon will cost you about $8 bucks (4000 colones). $8 wont break the bank, but when you consider that their ice cream is "chock-full" of air. It is not such a great bargain. I mean who wants to pay for milky air?
So what is a woman to do when her husband is an ice cream connoisseur and refuses to pay for "airy dairy"? You get on Google and figure out a way to do this ish yourself. After reading entirely too many reviews on Amazon the Supreme won out basically because I am too lazy to have to do any pre planning. When I want ice cream, I WANT ICE CREAM!!! This little machine has been perfect. We have whipped up ice cream & sorbet galore! Our current favorite is guanabana-lime sorbet
