The perfect ice cream and frozen yogurt maker is Pure Indulgence--Cuisinart's Pure Indulgence ICE-30BC Frozen Yogurt-Ice Cream and Sorbet Maker, that is. For years, I longed for an ice creamer maker, putting it on my Christmas wish lists, dropping hints about my desires when birthday suggestions were required. Finally, I just gave up and decided to get one myself. What I got, the Cuisinart Pure Indulgence ICE-30BC far surpasses any of my ice cream fantasies. This product is easy to use, makes ice cream that tastes so much better than anything I've ever purchased in a store, and cleans up quickly. With warm days ahead, I've already started thinking about what sweet treats I'll be making this year. I'd equate the quality of the ice cream I've made with gelato I've tasted in Italy, and that is a pretty big compliment to Cuisinart.

This is a heavy duty ice cream and frozen yogurt maker, made of brushed stainless steel, so it fits in easily with the look of the modern kitchen. Although I am loathe to purchase bulky kitchen appliances, after looking at many more flimsy models, this fully automatic Cuisinart ICE-30BC Pure Indulgence Frozen Yogurt-Ice Cream & Sorbet Maker won me over. Cuisinart, of course, has been around a long time and has an excellent reputation in the field of kitchen appliances and other cookware, and is sold by all the major houseware stores and cooking outlets online. I love Cuisinart's food processor, and I had no fear that this frozen yogurt and ice cream maker would live up to high standards. Indeed, it has surpassed my expectations.

Takeaways
  • Making your own ice cream, frozen yogurt, and sorbet is easy with this Cuisinart appliance.
  • Its design in brushed stainless steel fits in with the modern kitchen look.
  • Getting used to making homemade ice cream, frozen yogurt, and sorbet takes a little practice.

I did not realize that Epicurious had ice cream recipes. That will be a good source this summer.

My husband is an ice cream junkie and we got one of these for Christmas. I agree with everything you said in the review! It is wonderful, but bulky. We haven't used ours as much as we thought we would, but hopefully we will get more use out of it this summer.
