TOP 8 Ice creams TESTED

FINDING a nice iced treat was an easy task this year. Terrific flavours, in all shapes and sizes make for a luxury-filled summer.

While ice-cream has been demonised in the press lately, I am slow to think that giving up any one product will solve our obesity problems. We need to get back to the notion of moderation and keeping treats to just that – something we enjoy occasionally, and that means every few weeks, not a few times a week.

It’s easy to get into the habit of sharing. An ice-cream on a stick can be divided, and we need to spoon out tubs into bowls so we know what we are eating. It’s too easy to dig a spoon into a tub and not stop until it’s gone, especially when it tastes so good.
