Hot summer days call for iced cold beverages or better yet, ice cream! And what better way to enjoy this delicious dessert than in the comfort of your dining room or kitchen. If you prefer to whip up your own so you can personalize flavors and add-ins, then the Cuisinart FastFreeze is for you.

This nifty ice cream maker removes the hassle of making cold desserts from scratch at home. It has a user-friendly interface and dedicated parts for various concoctions. It can make sorbet, slushy, ice cream, milkshake, and mix-ins from pre-frozen ingredients.

The Cuisinart FastFreeze lives up to its name   a press of a button and you get a half-pint ice cream in three minutes. It features a plug-and-play system so you can have your cold sweets in under five minutes. This machine features five preset settings for each above-mentioned options.

But it’s important to remember to pre-freeze the ingredients and its dessert cups for at least a day or 24 hours to ensure frozen consistency. It works like those handheld choppers or portable blenders with their detachable motor head. It’s a “wand” in a sense, with the presets located at the head and the blade at the central portion.

Simply connect the wand then choose your setting, and hold down the “on” button with a light downward press of the handle. The green light on the wand turns red once the process is done and you get smooth ice cream with no icy lumps. The Cuisinart FastFreeze features a compact design for convenient storage. It comes with three half-pint detachable and dishwasher safe dessert cups with lids for storage.
