One Last Summer Scoop
So! The end of August is a little lad to be sharing Summer tips, but I’ve only just discovered the very best ice cream scooper EVER. And I figured I’d share the joy of deliciously delectably just-soft-enough scoops of summer-y goodness, for you to savor the last little bits of the ice cream season.
You may have heard of the $20 Zeroll ice cream scoop. Well, this is it’s knockoff. And while I feel bad for the awesome folks at Zeroll for coming up with the most genius ice cream invention since the waffle cone only to have it ripped off and sold for under 5 bucks, I’m happier that someone actually did knock it off and bring perfect scoops of ice cream to the masses. The idea is this: the scooper is made of cast aluminum and is filled with self-defrosting fluid in the handle. Just by holding the handle, you’re warming up the liquid and when you turn it upside down to scoop… well, the proof is in the pudding ice cream.
We’ve been eating way too many ice cream cones around here since I bought this amazing little kitchen gadget! It may just be the best $5 you’ll ever spend. Get one here.
