Lakeland has slashed the price of its popular ice cream maker, with customers already dubbing it a ‘little belter’ for whipping up homemade puddings. TheLakeland Digital Ice Cream Maker is on sale for £39.99, down from £44.99, as part of Lakeland’s sale running from May 19 to May 27, making it a perfect choice for families seeking a fun kitchen activity.

Built to produce homemade ice cream, sorbets and frozen yoghurts in as little as 40 minutes, the machine allows users to craft their own frozen treats from scratch, with the added benefit of knowing precisely what ingredients go into them. The transparent lid lets users watch the mixture churn, while the digital LED display makes it straightforward to manage the timing.

The bowl requires freezing 12 hours prior to use – after which, shoppers can pour ingredients into the bowl, where they are churned by the paddle. From there, flavours can be tailored with a few imaginative additions – for instance, the base flavour can be enhanced with chocolate chips or fruit mid-mix.

The Lakeland Digital Ice Cream Maker has garnered positive reviews on Amazon, with one customer describing it as a “little belter”, writing: “Wow, what a great machine – churned a lovely healthy ice cream in it.

“Great price and also the Lakeland 3-year guarantee. A big little machine. Easy to clean. I didn’t find the spout an issue, I just used a jug to pour in the mixture.”

On the Lakeland website, another buyer commented: “Made vanilla ice cream today and it turned out to be a perfect, money well spent, following instructions to the letter, and it worked well.”

A third reviewer added: “This is so easy to use, and clean afterwards. The freezer is now full of various ice cream flavours and sorbets. The recipe book is small but great as a guide. Have swapped fruits and flavours, and all have been successful. I highly recommend it.”

A small number of reviewers had minor reservations, with one commenting: “I purchased this at a reduced price, but it is a great little machine. I made ice cream with my granddaughter and great-grandson, and we all enjoyed the experience. I gave 4 stars as the hole for putting in the ingredients is too small for easy use.”

Another noted in a lengthier review: “Only faff is having to make sure you freeze the bowl for at least 12 hours, but overnight is better.”
