It has been created by Angel Delight, which says it is as easy to make as its well-known whipped instant dessert.To make the ice cream, all you do is whisk the powdery contents of a sachet with cold milk in a bowl for a few minutes before putting it in the freezer.After four hours, the ice cream – which is available in strawberry, chocolate, butterscotch, and vanilla – is ready to serve.Extra ingredients, such as marshmallows, peanut butter and biscuit pieces, can be added to the mix so that children can invent their own flavours.The sachets cost £1 each and make half a litre of ice cream.
John Steels, who has helped develop the product at Angel Delight’s factory near Stafford, said it was being brought to stores just in time for the hot weather. He said: ‘If the weatherman continues to behave himself then we expect the product to be really popular.
‘It’s fun to make and doesn’t require a whole lot of special equipment. All you need is a bowl, whisk and some milk
We have found that parents are already turning making the ice cream into a fun event with their children.
'You can make it in the morning and it is frozen and ready for after lunch.
‘Parents seem to have quite a fondness for the brand because they remember eating Angel Delight when they were children.’Ice cream normally has to be stirred several times during the freezing process to stop it crystallising. This is not necessary with the Angel Delight because the water is so bound up within the mix that it doesn’t form large ice crystals.The mix is available from Tesco and The Co-operative. It will be sold by Asda from next month.
When Bird’s Angel Delight was introduced in 1967 it offered ‘the taste of strawberries and cream’ It had its heyday in the 1980s when it became a popular family dessert, but it has been making a comeback in recent years as parents return to the nostalgic taste.
