You will need sweetened condensed milk for this recipe, do not use evaporated milk as it will affect the final result.
The best kind of cream to use is double cream, which has around a 48% fat content. As long as you are using a high fat content cream that will thicken when whisked, then this will not greatly affect the final result. Using single cream, or a lower fat cream, will affect the final result.
It’s best to use an electric hand mixer, or a stand mixer, to whisk up the double cream. It will take much longer by hand and require a lot of work!
For the best results, use a good quality food colouring for the orange coloured part of the ice cream. My favourite brands are Sugarflair and Pro Gel.
Although I provide cup measurements, I highly recommend weighing your ingredients out using digital kitchen scales. It is the most accurate way to measure ingredients and will ensure the best results. Digital scales are very low cost and can be purchased for around £12 ($16.50) .
For teaspoon (tsp) and tablespoon (tbsp) measurements, please use measuring spoons and not the type of spoons you eat with. Again this will ensure accuracy and provide the best results.
