You can decorate all of these with a number of sugar sprinkles. With the packaging you can also create two wrappers for the ice cream cones and two placemats, or actually they\u2019re supposed to be doilies. This kept me occupied for about five minutes, because there\u2019s quite a bit of precise cutting work to be done. Making the ice creams took me about 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>This kit is easy to make, but it\u2019s still fun to make mini ice creams with sugar sprinkles. You could even make the ice cream a different colour if you\u2019d like, using edible food colouring.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rgg-container\" data-rgg-id=\"10136\">    <div class=\"rgg-imagegrid captions-title captions-effect-none \" data-rgg-id=\"10136\">\n                    <a href=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Popin-Cookin_Ice-Cream_4.jpg\" data-rel=\"rgg\" rel=\"rgg\" title=\"Photographs by MuchMunchies\" class=\"rgg-simplelightbox size-full rgg-img\" data-src=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Popin-Cookin_Ice-Cream_4.jpg\" data-ratio=\"1.2121212121212\" data-height=\"660\" data-width=\"800\" aria-label=\"\">\n                            <\/a>\n                    <a href=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Popin-Cookin_Ice-Cream_5.jpg\" data-rel=\"rgg\" rel=\"rgg\" title=\"Photographs by MuchMunchies\" class=\"rgg-simplelightbox size-full rgg-img\" data-src=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Popin-Cookin_Ice-Cream_5.jpg\" data-ratio=\"0.95693779904306\" data-height=\"836\" data-width=\"800\" aria-label=\"\">\n                            <\/a>\n                    <a href=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Popin-Cookin_Ice-Cream_6.jpg\" data-rel=\"rgg\" rel=\"rgg\" title=\"Photographs by MuchMunchies\" class=\"rgg-simplelightbox size-full rgg-img\" data-src=\"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Popin-Cookin_Ice-Cream_6.jpg\" data-ratio=\"1.1142061281337\" data-height=\"718\" data-width=\"800\" aria-label=\"\">\n                            <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The final product looks cute, as long as you take the time to do everything neatly. As you can see on the picture they resemble the candy on the box quite well, although the ice cream cones look a bit less like it. That\u2019s because the hole I cut in the piping bag was too small. If you cut off the end on the line that\u2019s on the packaging, or even a little above it, they should turn out fine.<\/p>\n<p>Both kinds of \u2018ice cream\u2019 tasted a little like custard pudding. The pink \u2018ice cream\u2019 tasted a little bit like strawberry and the white \u2018ice cream\u2019 had a faint vanilla flavour to it. Aside from that both were pretty sweet, a little too sweet for my taste. The sugar sprinkles tasted like sugar, as expected.<\/p>\n<p>The wafers tasted pretty old and dry, but did taste like wafers. This was especially true for the rectangular wavers. You don\u2019t notice this \u2018old\u2019 taste as much if you eat the wavers with the \u2018ice cream\u2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>TIP:<\/strong> If you\u2019d like to place the sugar decorations a bit more precisely, use tweezers.<\/p>\n<h4>Want to enjoy this kit again?<\/h4>\n<p>This set is not really reusable, but you could create a similar \u2018set\u2019. If you buy ice cream cones and cut them to a smaller length then those could replace the ice cream cones in this set. You could use whipped cream instead of the \u2018ice cream\u2019, this is also easy to colour. To decorate you could use any kind of edible sprinkles you\u2019d like.<\/p>\n<p>You can obviously keep the wrappers for the ice cream cones and the doilies and could maybe even reuse those.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently I purchased a few Japanese Candy kits and I will review all of these for AVO.
