Forget cornettos and Soleros. These are the ice cream alternatives you’ll want to stock your freezer full of this summer.
We all know that the best way to cool down on a balmy summer’s day is with a frozen treat. And while 99s, Twisters and Magnums are all noble choices, sometimes you just need something a bit different to hit the spot. Thankfully, there are plenty of ice cream alternatives on the market to choose from.
Staples like frozen yoghurt and sorbet are always a good idea, but don’t be afraid to mix things up with the likes of frozen cheesecake (yes, really) and cookie dough mochi. Salivating already? Here are seven of our favourite iced treats.
Crosta & Mollica lemon shells
Enjoy a sweet and sharp taste of Italy with these refreshing sorbetto, made with fresh Sorrento lemon juice.
Pleese Freezecakes
What could be a better summertime dessert than the world’s first frozen cheesecake from Pleese? Pick between rich double chocolate, butterscotch swirled with silky caramel or a zesty lemon freezecake.
Shop Pleese Freezecakes at Waitrose, £5
Little Moons honey roasted pistachio mochi
Founded in 2008, the now-iconic creamy artisan gelato, lovingly wrapped in soft and delightfully delicate mochi dough, has taken the dessert world by storm. We’re particularly loving the delicious nutty and sweet combination of honey pistachio.
Waitrose Levantine Table pomegranate & rose sorbet
This tangy pomegranate and rose sorbet is inspired by the diverse and vibrant culture of the Levant, the region of the Middle East that stretches along the sunny shores of the eastern Mediterranean.
Shop Waitrose Levantine Table pomegranate & rose sorbet, £3.65
Ice Mojito frozen cocktail
Enjoy this refreshing summer cocktail with the recognisable taste of mint after dinner, at a picnic or on a lazy afternoon.
Dough Chi chocolate chip
Looking for something to satisfy a sweet tooth? Enjoy Doughlicious cookie dough combined with the finest frozen centre to create the ultimate luxurious dessert.
M&S greek style vanilla frozen yogurt
Great as a simple base for anything from fruit to chocolate, this creamy frozen yoghurt should be a summer dessert staple in any kitchen.
