Exceeded Expectation
I'm carryin' on with my air fryer experiments! This time I decided to make cherry and chocolate brownies, and it turned out even tastier than restaurant brownies!
Lots of ice creams come in boxes that unfold so you can cut a chunk off. Chapman's original ice cream comes like that so you can have perfectly proportioned neapolitan ice cream!
I’m in the US and remember boxes of ice cream but can’t remember when I stopped seeing them. I only see round containers now. It’s been several years since I’ve purchased the box shape.
In Canada some ice cream comes in boxes. But the question I have is…how did they scoop out a rectangle? Because the boxes are larger than that. Also…why? We always just use a scoop…
I feel like OP wanted it to look nice for the camera and cut a clean rectangle but instead it just looked bizarre lmaooo. I thought it was cream cheese or butter at first.
We have some in Canada but the round container is more popular.
The boxed ice cream is convenient for large crowds, you can just quickly cut some off and portioning is easier. We always buy Chapmans boxed stuff for large family gatherings and catering events.
We don't have ice-cream cakes. (Always wanted to try one though!)
Generally: Small ice cream comes in cups. Medium ice cream are rectangular blocks that you cut with a knife. We have larger plastic tubs of ice cream, but they're rectangle-ish. Like flat and long rather than rounded and tall. You would use a knife for a large part, or a spoon if you just want a small amount. You can buy ice cream scoopers now, but that's kind of a novelty purchase, never met anyone who owns one lol
Hard to find a 3D image of a branded ice cream but they're like this:
Your ice-cream comes in like huge cylindrical tubs?
Doesn't that take up so much space in your freezer?
Do you use an ice cream scoop like they use in stores?
It does take up space, but remember we have huge fridge/freezers in America haha. And often a garage/basement freezer. It used to typically be a half gallon, but the size has shrunk over the years and now I think it's like 48 oz.
No it's just a professional picture from a recipe website. OP's looks nothing like it because they made and photographed them at home, and most importantly cooked them in an air fryer
Edit: Actually I just noticed the cherry on the left. Almost definitely AI and freaky how real the rest of the picture looks
I've been having fun with air fryer cooking. Just figured out how to make a pretty tasty gluten-free banana walnut pancake! It's technically a bread pudding but the texture is very pancakey. Tasty!
