Ice cream is one of the best desserts that is liked by both children and adults. This product is in every country. And for many years since its inception, it has become a constant treat at most home holidays. You can buy ice cream in almost any store. Making ice cream is almost a separate branch of design art. Consider how to decorate ice cream at home.

Which dishes to choose

One of the main components of the original approach to serving ice cream is dishes. Each family’s home service probably has dessert plates. They should be small in size and with low edges. You can use glasses or cups. It is desirable that the dishes are transparent. Do not serve ice cream in one large bowl, be sure to put it in portions.

If you use a wide flat plate, then place the ice cream in the center, leaving room for fruit on the sides. Put ice cream in a bowl with a special deep spoon that forms balls. If it is absent at home, you can use the usual dining room, but proceed carefully. A dessert spoon is used as a device. It differs from tea in a long handle and a less deep cup.

How to decorate ice cream with fruit

The most common products for decorating ice cream at home are, of course, fruits. You can use almost all of their types. Finely chop and peel off any peel (e.g. apples). A very original solution would be to serve ice cream directly in the fruit. A big apple is best. To do this, cut out the middle and top of the fruit. If it is very large (or the ice cream is small), then you can cover the top with a cut apple top.

The main thing is to remember that fruit is not the main component of the dish, but only the decoration of ice cream. Therefore, it is important not to overdo it and not pour too many of them. At home, cut fruit can lose its original taste in a few hours. Therefore, they need to be cut immediately before serving. They should be laid out on a dish carefully so that they do not get dirty in ice cream. The fruits should be striking and contrast brightly with the ice cream. In restaurants, the chef adds a special essence to the dish, due to which sourness appears. Ice cream at home can be flavored with lemon. It is necessary to squeeze the juice on the ice cream, and then put the ice cream in the refrigerator for several minutes. Drops of lemon will harden and add attractiveness.

How to decorate ice cream with chocolate at home

Chocolate is an indispensable supplement to most desserts, including ice cream. Chocolate decoration is exquisite and uncomplicated. Moreover, to do this at home is not difficult. You can use different varieties: from bitter Dutch to ordinary glaze. The traditional way is to pour ice cream with melted chocolate. For this, it is better to take milk and not porous. Many stores sell special chocolate tubes. At home, you can use the water bath. There are many options to apply chocolate to the dish. You can cover the ice cream with a thick layer of milk chocolate or make small streaks black. If fruits are present, water them too. It will look very juicy.

In addition to melted chocolate, it will look organic if you rub it or put it in small pieces. To get good chips, you should first put the tiles in the refrigerator. You can rub on any teeth of the grater, depending on what kind of shavings you want to get. Sprinkle ice cream before serving so that the chocolate does not melt and does not merge with the ice cream. At home, you can use a potato peeler or a fish knife to get a thin slice. It fits nicely on top of ice cream balls. Spread small pieces of chocolate around the edges of the dish.

How to decorate ice cream with improvised products

Making ice cream at home depends primarily on your creativity. It is not necessary to look at the photos of dishes of famous culinary specialists in order to surprise guests. Using products that are always in your kitchen, you can create your own unique ensemble. Sprinkle ice cream with pastry crumbs. To do this, put the cookies in a plastic bag and mash. Shortbread cookies will serve as an excellent platform for ice cream balls. Confectionery rolls with chocolate have become the usual touch of any ice cream dish. Candied citrus fruits are a real decoration for any dish.

Roasted nuts are great for chocolate ice cream. And you can use all kinds of nuts. Before frying, remove the peel. Walnuts make good shavings. To top it off, add a few peppermint or lemon balm leaves. They will not only add a twist to the visual plan, but they will also give odors that no one can resist. Thus, ice cream at home can be tasty and attractive with the help of improvised products.

How to serve ice cream tasty and beautiful?

There is probably no such person on the planet who would not like ice cream. This is the most popular dessert in the world. In the heat, it cools, and in the cold gives memories of the summer. Ice cream is delicious in itself, but they are also used as the basis for creating more complex desserts. This is true when it comes to a special occasion, whether it is a solemn feast, a children's birthday, a friendly party or a romantic meeting. In this situation, I want to serve ice cream in a special way - beautiful and unusually tasty.

How to serve ice cream if you want to add variety or make an impression? We bring to your attention a few ideas.

How is ice cream served for children and adults?

Ice cream is most often served in the form of balls. Use for this a special spoon for ice cream with a pusher. It looks something like this:

Before preparing a dessert for guests, it is worth practicing. Place a container of clean water nearby and dip a spoon into it before scooping ice cream.

If there is no special spoon for ice cream, it can be laid out in a bowl in the usual way or squeezed out of the bag with a pyramid. Slightly softened ice cream should be laid out in a dense plastic bag, cutting off one corner of it.

If you want to serve ice cream less routine, put it not in a bowl, but, for example, in martini glasses or for cocktails.

You can serve ice cream in plates, but always with a side.

Ice cream in cups, glasses and plates is supplemented with fruits, berries, syrups, chocolate icing, chocolate chips, colorful dragees, nuts, slices of cookies, etc.

How to serve ice cream in an original way?

1. Ice cream in “cups” of fruit

This method of serving ice cream is very popular in the West. So treat children and adults at home holidays.

Most often use oranges. It is necessary to cut off the top and discard it, then carefully remove a little pulp of orange with a spoon to form a cavity. Prepare the right amount of orange "cups", then place a ball of ice cream in each of them or fill the "cups" with ice cream using a spoon. Top with an orange with iced syrup, chocolate icing or caramel.

Similarly, apples, lemons, peaches and small melons are filled. Apples can be both fresh and slightly baked. It’s better, of course, to bake them a little, so that they become softer. So it will be easier to remove the core, making room for ice cream. And the apple itself will become sweeter. Ice cream in apples is usually poured with caramel and sprinkled with nuts.

How to make caramel for ice cream?   Take one glass of sugar, a tablespoon of water and a glass of fat cream. Pour sugar into a saucepan, add a spoonful of water, put on fire. Stir until the mass acquires a brown color and the consistency of a thick caramel. After this, you need to remove the pan from the heat and immediately very carefully pour a glass of cream. Stir well until smooth caramel is obtained. You can add some vanilla if you wish. Pour ice cream with cooled caramel.

2. Funny balls: serving ice cream to children

Ice cream balls can be originally decorated with fruits and berries. For example, portray a funny face of an animal or an unknown creature, using berries, dragees, slices of fruit.

Ice cream desserts for kids

Using ponytails from apples or sprigs of mint, as well as syrup or icing, you can give the balls of ice cream a kind of fruit. For example, make balls of red and yellow ice cream, lightly pour the yellow with red syrup, then stick ponytails or twigs on top. Ice cream apples are ready! Children love these wonders with groceries.

On Halloween, ice cream balls can be turned into ... eyes. Terribly delicious. You will need circles of fruits or berries, dragees to simulate a pupil and red jam syrup.

3. Ice cream cocktail: serving ice cream for children and adults

Ice cream can be served in the form of a cocktail, decorating it accordingly. For example, to make Mojito ice cream, you need to take white or green green ice cream and place it into glasses, on the bottom of which are sliced \u200b\u200blime or lemon and mint leaves. Pour in a little mint or lemon syrup. Top with ice cream and lime and mint. For greater similarity, you can insert a cocktail umbrella into the glass. Serve such a “cocktail” with a high spoon.

Similarly, you can prepare other "cocktails" with fruits, berries, cookies.

4. Maybe a cup of coffee?

How to serve ice cream in an original way? For example, disguising it as coffee. You need to take coffee pairs (preferably with a themed coffee decoration), put chocolate or coffee ice cream in cups, do not forget about the spoons. Ice cream can be decorated with chocolate chips and coffee beans.

On flat pastries (cake, biscuit, etc.) you can not apply cream, but put ice cream. Ice cream is squeezed out of the bag or laid with a ball. Filled with ice cream and tartlets.

Summer is a traditional time for soft drinks and ice cream, which both adults and children eat in large quantities. But remember - ice cream is not only eaten in the form of a popsicle or a crispy horn on a street on a hot day. It can be an excellent dessert or one of the dishes at a summer party that you can arrange by inviting guests. And then the question arises of decorating ice cream, which should be not only tasty and refreshing, but also “tasty” from a visual point of view.

Method One: Garnish with Fruits

Add an additional flavor note and beauty to the ice cream with a handful of berries or small pieces of fruit that you have or buy them specifically for this. It can be raspberries, strawberries Strawberries: useful properties and contraindications of your favorite summer berry   , strawberries, kiwi, mandarin slices Useful properties of mandarin and contraindications for delicious citrus   . If desired, you can also add mint leaves to them.

Method two: a new look at the dishes

Surely you are used to serving ice cream in small cups or creamers. Try changing your view of dessert dishes, and place ice cream, for example, in champagne glasses, large porcelain spoons, eggcups, and other containers that you have at home. Of course, in them you can decorate ice cream with fruits, for years, syrup.

Method Three: Citrus Fantasy

If you are used to sprinkle ice cream with powdered sugar, vanilla sugar, take a step towards a truly summer "design". As a decoration, which, in addition, has a piquant taste and aroma, you can use the zest of citrus fruits - lemon, orange, lime. If you do not like sour, grate the zest on a fine grater and mix with small grains of sugar.

Method Four: Sweet Chips

The combination of ice cream and chocolate is a classic dessert, and turning it into reality at home is very simple, and it’s not at all necessary to pour ready-made chocolate syrup into ice cream or mix it with crumbs. Take chocolate, which is more to your liking (bitter, dark, milk, white) and with a sharp knife cut the “chips” of small thickness. For the decoration to work out, it is necessary that the chocolate is not too soft, otherwise it will form shapeless pieces, and also not very cold and hard, because it will crumble and cut badly. Vary the temperature - put in the refrigerator for a few minutes for hardness or let it lie down a bit to soften and become more supple.

The fifth method: citrus clothes

Citrus fruits can also be an excellent “bowl” for ice cream. To do this, you need to take, for example, an orange, cut in half so that the pulp is gently pulled out with a spoon, then fill the peel, which remains in the form of a hemisphere, with ice cream, decorate and put in the refrigerator until the guests arrive. You can make several options for dessert for a party - in orange, lemon Lemon: useful properties and contraindications of acid citrus   lime.

   HISTORY OF ORIGIN was a certain cook who had a secret, which allowed him to prepare ice cream. Catherine de Medici was well aware of this cook. When it was time for the wedding with Duke of Orleans, Catherine, going to France, took with her the same cook who knew how to make ice cream. Charles I liked him so much that he received the status of a personal royal ice cream man. Charles I gave the cook a lifetime pension, setting one condition for him - in spite of all circumstances, the ice cream man should never disclose to anyone the secret of making ice cream, since cold sweets are exclusively a royal dessert. ICE CREAM One of the hypotheses about the occurrence of ice cream in Europe is that the ice cream recipe brought Marco Polo to Italy from China. He was lucky to be present at the process of making ice cream, and he could not resist the temptation to learn the magic recipe and upon returning home on his own. According to another version, it is generally accepted that it should be made.

About ice cream Ice cream appeared in the 5th century in China. The Chinese mixed snow with honeycomb in silver cubes, garnished with fruit and stored in these silver cubes. Venetian traveler Marco Polo brought ice cream to Europe in the late 18th century. Since then, ice cream has become a favorite dessert. Under Catherine de Medici, the favorite ice cream of the French royal court was ice cream with fruit, whipped cream and liquor. Modern ice cream and popsicle had their distant ancestors. In time immemorial, people suffering from heat, came up with the idea of \u200b\u200bmixing fruit juices with snow or ice. They say that such a cold delicacy was consumed by Alexander the Great (IV century BC). Specially equipped slaves brought snow to the table of the king of Macedonia from high mountain peaks and from deep caves. Cooling drinks were very successful at the court of the Roman emperor Nero (I century AD).

   WHAT IS ICE CREAM Ice cream is this. . . ... whipped (saturated with air) frozen mixture of milk, cream or fruit and berry products with sugar, stabilizers, flavoring and aromatic substances. Moreover, if earlier dairy products were the basis of ice cream (with the exception of fruit ice), now a confident trend is seen in replacing milk fat with vegetable fats. This raw material is less scarce and cheaper than dairy.

   ICE CREAM DECORATION How to decorate ice cream: sweet rolls and waffles, beautifully shaped cookies, whipped cream from a spray can add a vertical - tasty and beautiful, in addition they can serve as a spoon. A beautifully laid out layer of sliced \u200b\u200bfruits or berries at the bottom of the glass and a layer of ice cream always produce a good effect. Top the ice cream with chocolate chips, confectionery powder, pieces of nuts, marshmallows and other sweets. Slices of candied fruit, chocolate figurines, chocolate sauces, whole berries are also used to decorate ice cream.
