Real Fruit Ice Cream - by Quillian

 What is the difference between real fruit ice cream and normal ice cream? Let me explain...

New Zealand style ice cream, also known as real fruit ice cream, is a popular concept in New Zealand. A machine (like the Little Gem) takes hard packed ice cream and mixes real frozen fruit into it creating an amazing, delicious, soft serve ice cream. Traditionally, real fruit ice cream is made with a vanilla base. So far in New Zealand I have seen boysenberry, raspberry, strawberry, and mixed berry fruit. I tried boysenberry and it was not very sweet, with a smooth and fluffy texture, like a pillow. According to the New York Times, the United States is just catching on to real fruit ice cream, but now with brand new flavors with tons of candy, sprinkles, chocolate sauce, and sweet stuff. Personally, I would much rather have the New Zealand real fruit ice cream compared to the American sweet stuff.
