Fact: it's never too cold for ice-cream. Enjoy your home-churned ice-cream, pure, cold and unadulterated. If you're so inclined, sandwich it between biscuits and meringues, or drop a scoop on top of some still-warm waffles. Gelato, sorbet and frozen yoghurt slices? We have those too.
It's always a good time for ice-cream (or sorbet, or gelato)
It's true.
