Ice Cream Maker

Ice-cream makers are household appliances that turn a basic liquid base or custard – a mixture of cream, milk, egg yolks and sugar, plus any flavourings – into frozen ice cream through a process of chilling and churning. A rotating paddle keeps the liquid moving and lets in air, while also scraping down the sides.After you make your ice cream base, you pour it into the bowl of the machine, which is cold enough to freeze the mixture. As the base freezes, a paddle—called the dasher—turns inside the bowl, scraping the sides while breaking up ice crystals and churning air into the mixture, producing a soft, smooth ice cream.
