When I found out that Cuisinart had released a brand-new model of their ice cream machine, I asked if they would let me give two away on my site. And I was happy when they agreed!

I’ve been using my ICE-50 for a number of years, which is self-refrigerating, so I can make ice cream and sorbet whenever I want and not have to pre-freeze the canister. It’s the machine I relied heavily on when churning up with the recipes in The Perfect Scoop.

The next generation of this machine, the ICE-100 ice cream freezer will churn up 1 1/2 quarts of ice cream or sorbet with the use of an internal compressor. And now that summer is almost here, it’s the perfect time to add an ice cream freezer to your kitchen.

To enter, leave a comment with the name of your favorite flavor of ice cream, sorbet, or sherbet. Only one entry per person is allowed and please leave a valid e-mail address so you can be contacted if you win.

NOTE: The give-away is now closed. The winners were chosen at random, and are Katie S. and Blaine W, who have been contacted. Thanks to all who entered! – dl

The comments will be closed on Tuesday – June 19, 2012, at 6pm Paris time. Please read the rules below carefully before entering.

Nectarine Sorbet

Good luck – and happy churning to the winners!

    Strawberry!

    Passionfruit! We go up into the mountains behind our home here in Hawaii to pick wild Lilikoi (passionfruit). We put the sweet centers through a sieve to squeeze out every last drop of juice. It makes a heavenly sorbet!

    • Sierra

    I will almost never turn down green mint chocolate chip ice cream. It’s even better to make a hot fudge sundae out of it!

    • Barbara

    Salted caramel from Morelli’s in Atlanta!

    • latenac

    My favorite is the chocolate raspberry from your book. It’s like a really good candy bar in ice cream form which of course makes it better than a candy bar.

    • Tiffany

    Rocky Road

    • Eric

    vanilla with caramel swirl

    coffee!

    • Kate Trimble

    Honey, from a tiny, locally owned shop in Compton, CA in the ’50’s. Also, black walnut from the sadly defunct Ashburn shops in Fort Worth, TX.

    My favorite flavor ice cream is Peach Ice Cream….. Homemade from fresh, ripe, juicy O’Henry peaches!

    • Sam D.

    Mango lassi from Jeni’s in Columbus, Ohio!

    • Bruce Robinson

    Licorice. I’m serious. But for nostalgia,and its redolence, pistacchio. And if I’m lazy, rum raisin.

    • Ramona Luca

    vanilla ice cream , because it’s a Classic and it’s comfort food

    • Julia Wiley

    basil! it makes a heavenly ice cream or gelato

    • selena

    • Amanda

    Blood orange

    • vanessa

    Coffee.

    • Marilyn

    Coffee ice cream. It is hard to find it with a good string coffee flavor.

    • Kristin

    Café latte

    what a perfect giveaway for summer! Who doesn’t love ice cream!

    My favorite flavor is Butter Pecan

    Cheers
    Dennis

    • Joanna Ryan

    My favorite is strawberry which I make all summer long, from start to finish of strawberry season. I make other types too, but not so often. I guess I need to branch out. I’ve made several from your book, including, of course, the strawberry.

    • Cora

    My friend gave me a cuisinart ice cream maker but I find it difficult to use because in order to make succeeding batches of ice cream, I had to freeze the gel for several days. *ugggh*. I hope this one is easier to use so I can make more of your exciting ice cream recipes !

    • Sara K.

    mmm..Dulce de leche.

    • michael filly

    I think your toasted coconut from the perfct scoop is an amazing rich flavor. The infuding of the coconut flavor brings out the healthy coconut oils giving this ice cream a texture like no other. I am also a fan of the cuisinart machine with freezer bowls & own 2 of them, I would love to add this new model to my collection!

    • joan hersh

    favorite flavor: passionfruit

    • Charles Hunter III

    I would have to say passion fruit is my favorite sorbet selection. I also like strawberry basil.

    • Karen Thiesen

    Good old Chocolate Chip!

    • Robert

    Current fave: David’s Salted Caramel Ice Cream with Praline Bits. We had it for dessert last night. Another week, there will be another favorite.

    • Bablankenship

    Meyer lemon and vanilla bean and fresh cream from our neighbor’s jersey cows

    • elizabeth peterson

    Bourbon custard.

    • Allan W

    Rum and Raisin. Takes me back into a flavor-smell generated warm fuzzy time zone. Natural ice-cream as with all foods are the best tasting – but ice-cream is all of that. Over the years ice-cream making has been intimidating. This Cuisinart ICE-100 Ice Cream Machine brings this reality and capability into every home. I cannot wait!

    • Charlotte Cobb

    MY FAVORITE ICE CREAM IS COTTON CANDY!!! If that is not available I love chocolate. Thank you for the chance to win this, on Father’s Day of all things!

    HAPPY FATHER’S DAY ALL YOU DADS

    Thanks, and happy eating!

    • Meghan

    Mango sorbet!

    • Heidi

    How can I choose just 1 flavor? Well if I have to I guess it would be homemade White Russian ice cream extremely fattening but completely worth it!

    • Warren Rempel

    I recently made camembert ice cream and loved it – like a cheese course gone wild!

    • Cora

    My friend gave me a cuisinart ice cream maker but I find it difficult to use because in order to make succeeding batches of ice cream, I had to freeze the gel for several days. *ugggh*. I hope this one is easier to use so I can make more of your exciting ice cream recipes ! Oh, my favorite flavor is chocolate.

    • Irina Dicovsky

    My all-time favorite is bitter-sweet chocolate with almonds!

    • Anjali

    The Perfect Scoop was my very first ice cream book & still years later I turn to it to make ice cream. Olive Oil ice cream still hits the spot!

    My favorite ice cream is grapefruit granita.

    • Alexis

    I’ve been wanting to try one-ingredient banana ice cream, but looking around the farmer’s market: cherry, blueberry, strawberry!

    • Andrea

    Vanilla! A good vanilla ice cream is heavenly…you need nothing else! I am ready to churn.

    • Jane Edwards

    Plum ice cream made with some rosy plums from our neighbour’s tree- the variety name has long been forgotten. Mix the plum purée with eggs, sugar and crème fraîche. Perfect balance of creaminess and acidity. It goes well with prunes soaked in Armagnac too. Perfect Dordogne summer tastes

    • Eric Whinston

    Rum Raisin

    • OrlyB

    Strawberry ice cream (and sorbet).

    • Sara Schley

    Oooh yum! My favorite kind of homemade ice cream is ‘teddy graham’ – graham cracker crumbs whirred into a vanilla cream base, and then some Teddy Grahams (little bear shaped graham cracker snacks) stirred in the last few minutes (if they’re stirred in at the start they will dissolve).

    • Nancy

    Fresh peach with cappuccino running a close second!!

    • Thomas

    Vanilla. If you can make a good vanilla ice cream you know how to make good ice cream.

    • Elizabeth Lerner

    peach ice cream

    • Marlane Parra

    Vanilla with classic hot fudge sauce! All others are great, but when it comes right down to it, these simple classic flavors say it all. Perfection.

    • Monisha

    Mint chocolate chip, if I HAVE to pick one.

    Any combination containing coffee and/or hazelnut.
