I'm not sure if the pictures do this knock-your-socks-off ice cream any justice. Because this might just be my Number One favourite!! Hands down, this is the best-est ice cream creation i have come up with so far. It's seriously soo good, i can't even put into words, you just gotta make it yourself!
You should probably be fond of chocolate and mint though, cause this is basically "After Eight" in ice cream form. Nomnomnom! I love love love the mixture of the fresh mint and the sweet chocolate... and the texture of the brownie bites of course which are just to die for!
I don't know what else to say except for: make this. eat it. cherish it.

Honestly, i didn't think the Honeydew Melon Ice Cream from a few weeks ago could be any better than it already was. But i was wrong.
By accident - because i had nothing else at hand, and because i had accidentally ripped open the bag - i ended up adding the content of one Green Tea Vanilla bag to the ice cream, and it was so so good! The sweetness of the melon, and the vanilla flavour of the green tea bag work together perfectly!
And the little spots from the tea leaves actually look like vanilla bean specks, don't they? :)

Dear digital diary,
I've been talking about this for a while now, and today is the day that I finally present you with the finished product. A Floral Headband! Yaay! This will be absolutely perfect for the Reggae Jam Festival that I'm going to this week. I've looked at several floral hairbands in stores but also at online DIYs, and I couldn't find a single one that really met with my approval because they were all too big, too small, wrong colour, weird shape or just too expensive or too complicated to make.
So I took matters in my own hand and sat down to create my very own floral headband. It took me around 30 minutes, and you only need 3 tools:

I'm having PMS right now (yep), so i'm moody and aching and want to curl up into a ball of sorrow and self-pity. Instead i'm treating myself to - guess what - some nicecream! This time it's dark chocolate (to satisfy my PMS cravings) with orange juice, orange zest and loads of cacao nibs.

LAVENDER ICE CREAM!
The coolest creation after my Poppy ice cream, i'd say!
This recipe was completely made from scratch, inspired by the blooming lavender on our balcony. The taste of these tiny blossoms is surprisingly strong, and the vanilla adds the perfect sweet hint. If you are not sure about the intensity of the "blossom" flavour, just change the ratio of lavender and vanilla a little.
For a bit more colour, you could add a handful of blueberries or raspberries.

Today is my last day of uni for this semester. Which is a reason to celebrate and eat nicecream, don't you think? Okay, anything and everything is a reason for me to eat nicecream.
I've made Peanut ice cream, i've made Hazelnut ice cream, i've even made Walnut ice cream... why have i not tried Almond ice cream yet?! Guess what? It's nutty and creamy and absolutely delicious. I also added some apple and cinnamon to make it a bit more christmas-y but that's obviously not mandatory.
I would think that Cashew ice cream would make a pretty amazing ice cream too...

I know, there is a recipe for Lemon Ice Cream on my blog already, but i re-created my recipe, and this time it was even better than before, so i wanted to feature it again on my blog! And you can never have enough of ice cream, now can you?
Sometimes, lemon ice cream from the shop can taste a bit "chemical" and artificial, but since we are using real lemons for this, it does not taste artificial at all. Also, i'm a bit proud to be using a hand-picked lemon (from the Canaries) for this, which looks sort of like a yellow flower when cut open, so i had to feature this recipe, you know? :)

There's no such thing as too much nicecream.
Wow, i had this entire bowl of strawberry goodness for breakfast all for myself, and it was delicious to the very last spoonful! I love love love strawberries, and strawberry ice cream with fresh strawberries and cacao nibs on top is killer! If you want some food porn going on in your mouth, here you go.

The common Orange Julius is a mixture of ice, orange juice, sweetener, milk, powdered egg whites and vanilla flavouring. My healthy-fied version of that is a mixture of ice cream, orange juice, soy milk and pure vanilla.

Have you ever eaten grape ice cream?!
Me neither, so i gave it a go, and i'm in love with it! For the shared breakfast with my boyfriend i whipped up a bowl of mint & grape ice cream, which we shared and both came to the conclusion that we should make purple grape ice cream more often, haha! It's seriously so good.
And the mint flavour somehow matches the flavour of the gapes... perfect summer food to share with your love! (or eat by yourself, of course)

Yes, i do put tea leaves into my ice cream.
I know it sounds weird, but the vanilla flavour of this green tea is really really good. (It's Green Tea Vanilla) To enhance the flavour, add a bit of vanilla extract or simply agave syrup! And it goes really well with the mint for some reason.

This ice cream is NUTS!
And not only because it's a nut flavoured ice cream, but because it's just so GOOD! Hazelnut, Almond, Peanut and Walnut Ice Cream are definitely my favourites when i'm looking for a decadent but still healthy dessert! They are creamy and rich and taste like heaven :)
I've also discovered that hazelnut and chocolate go really well together in ice creams (and in general), so if you want to even top this one, just add a tbsp or so of cacao powder! Yum.
