Free Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker Give Away!

ice cream maker

Yes, you heard right!  Free Ice Cream Maker!

I have the people at CSN stores to thank for allowing me to give away this wonderful kitchen appliance.  CSN has more than 200 online stores that sell everything from cookware to childrens’ furniture such as twin beds.

And the best news is, even if you’re on a very limited diet, you can still eat ice cream!  There are some great recipes for ice cream that are free of dairy, sugar, and even eggs.  Here are just a few:

Strawberry Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Another Strawberry Ice Cream

Banana Ice Cream

Coconut Lavender Vanilla Ice Cream

Chocolate Ice Cream

In terms of the recipes with fruit, you can easily use any kind of fruit your heart desires – peaches, mangoes, pears, raspberries, blueberries, etc.  You don’t even have to use sweetener in some of these recipes because the fruit is sweet enough.  I have also made vanilla ice cream with just coconut milk, real vanilla bean and honey, similar to the chocolate ice cream above.  However, I only used 1 can of coconut milk for the vanilla.

How to enter to win (only 1 lucky winner!):

So without further ado, here is how you can enter the contest to win a free Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker:

1)  Leave a comment on this blog post and tell me what kind of ice cream you’d like to make with the ice cream maker.  If you have a link to a dairy free and/or sugar free ice cream recipe, that would be great!

2) Tweet about this post and then come back to this blog post and report about it. Here is the link:  http://www.heartofcooking.com/2010/07/free-cuisinart -ice-cream- maker-give-away/

6)  Post this link on you Facebook page.  Here is the link:  http://www.heartofcooking.com/2010/07/free-cuisinart -ice-cream- maker-give-away/ Then come back and tell me about it on the blog.

Logistics:

  • The one person who has the most entries will win the ice cream maker.  If there is tie, I will pick a name out a hat at random.
  • This contest is open to anyone in the United States or Canada.
  • This contest will close at the end of Monday, July 12th.  The winner will be announced on Wednesday July 14th.

That’s it!  I hope you are the one who wins.  This is the exact ice cream maker that I own and it has been great!  It is so very easy to make ice cream in it – it literally only takes about 20 minutes for many recipes!  Good luck!

    Oh, I hope I can create enough entries. My son with autism just started the SCD, low oxalate diet and I’m hoping that we will be able to use Sarah’s menu-planner. AND…he so misses his ice cream. We used it every evening to mask his meds prior to starting this new diet.

    I would love to try homemade avocado ice cream! It sounds gross, but avocado shakes are super yummy so I think ice cream would be too!

    As a homeschooling family, we are BIG on books, so I really like the Bookcase bed for kids, especially since it has an option of a trundle underneath (a necessity in our house since we have no room for a guest room – at least this way we have extra beds)!

    If I won the ice cream maker I would make coconut milk ice cream. Sometimes I put tiny chocolate chips in it too. So yummy!

    I would love a recipe for dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, and gluten-free ice cream. My family has numerous allergies – and the only thing I have made (without an ice cream maker) is cherry sorbet (which was great). Thank you!

    I tweeted & facebooked about your contest.

    I love your recipes and have gotten some great tips.

    I have used ice cream recipes from http://www.thespunkycoconut.com.

    The furniture… well if I had the dough and a house big enough for it I’d go for the Lexington Long Cove Newport Poster Bedroom Set in Midnight. http://www.bedroomfurniture.com/Lexington-Long-Cove-Bedroom-Series-LTN1051.html

    I subscribed to your blog.

    I signed up for your meal planner.

    I’m confused about whether each notification of what I have done to fulfill the contest rules constitutes a separate entry. Please advise. I can send each report of my completion of required tasks separately.

    Thanks oodles for the opportunity to win, Holliday

    Hi Sarah-
    I have been trying to use Almond Milk to make ice cream, although it is much thinner than Coconut milk. Besides bananas, is there anything to do to thicken it up for a less “icy” consistency?

    Here’s a link for Dairy Free, Soy Free Peanut Butter Ice Cream!
