Lidl has done it again! To coincide with this week’s scorcher of a heatwave, Lidl has added the Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker to select stores around the UK – and the price will seriously shock you.
It goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway – it is absolutely boiling right now in the UK. I love the hot weather so I’m not complaining, but it’s so hot that I’m having to sleep in my second bedroom, and I’m currently writing this while a fan blasts me in the face.
All that being said, the warmer temperatures are something to enjoy (safely, I might add) and Lidl is certainly doing so with its latest product to hit the middle aisle. The Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker is a traditional ice cream machine that’s compact, easy to use, and has an impressive capacity, especially for the price.
The Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker is just £14.99 in Lidl stores. It comes with a beater, lid, detachable motor, and the main ice cream machine body, as well as a recipe guide.
Today’s ice cream makers are speedier than ever, but if you want a model that takes its time churning the creamiest ice creams, then you’ll like the Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker. To make ice cream or sorbet in the Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker, you’ll need to make and freeze your mixture the night before – this isn’t too dissimilar to how the popular Ninja Creami operates.
Once your mixture is frozen, the Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker sets about churning your frozen dessert. It has a maximum 1.65-litre capacity which can make up to 1-litre of ice cream, and you can add mix-ins, like chocolate, nuts or fruit via the lid at the top of the machine.
The Silvercrest Ice Cream Maker is what I’d describe as ‘small but mighty’. It’s extremely compact, so won’t take up much room in your kitchen, and has a powerful detachable motor that alternates directions to really hit that churning motion. Simply put, it’s exactly what you need for this week’s heatwave.
The SilverCrest Ice Cream Maker is available in select Lidl stores for £14.99. Compared to other ice cream machines, like the Ninja Creami, this might be the cheapest ice cream maker on the market.
