Hi again friends. How is your week so far? It felt like a fall day today for some reason the temperatures have dropped this week but I think they’re going back up by the weekend. I’m a little worried about my planters but hopefully they will be fine.
Today however, I’m happy to be joining my friend Krista as she hosts yet another fun summer hop. This time, we’re sharing delicious summer recipes. Well, at least my friends are. I on the other hand, am sharing a fail. 🙁
I’m not really sure what is going on lately but I’ve had several fails which I guess makes me human but it’s also pretty frustrating.
A few months ago I saw THIS video and thought it would be a brilliant idea to try. So I bought all the supplies necessary thinking that it would be a piece of cake. From seeing the initial photo you would think that everything worked out great but you would be oh so very wrong.
As it turns out as soon as you place ice cream onto warm melted chocolate, the ice cream obviously starts to melt immediately, but it also changes the consistency of the chocolate to….
This a deliciously useless clump of chocolate. Not really suitable for our purpose.
The white chocolate almost worked but…umm not really .
I decided to take a couple of somewhat creative photos of my fail ….
Not quite what we were going for. So here’s the verdict…with the amount of money, time and effort to make these, I could have easily purchased premade perfectly round popsicles probably two times over. Face palm.
Here’s a little video I made because why not….
But please don’t forget to check out my friends REAL recipes below…happy Wednesday…xo

I love this Lucy, though I’m sure it was beyond frustrating for you! When I was a teenager I worked at DQ and the ice cream treats we dipped were beyond super frozen and the chocolate we dipped it in had a special consistency to it (it probably had plastic for all I know!), that made it work… sometimes we see these brilliant things and they end up as a total fail and I love that you shared this. Thanks for being part of this hop! Take care:)
I love that you showed your fail, don’t get me wrong, I’m not a mean person. We all have fails, it’s just so nice to see someone honest enough to share it. Isn’t it just so frustrating when you think you’re about to create something great and it doesn’t work? ???? Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the good laugh at your expense this morning, my friend! Yup, I think we’ve all been there… 😉
Aw, Lucy, that is so sad. I’m so sorry, friend. I’m so glad you pointed out what can and will go wrong. I’ve had my share of fails lately too. LOVED your video too and seeing your pretty face. Buying Magnums is probably easier.
Oh, Lucy, I feel your pain! I’ve had some fails in my life too. It bugs me when you make something that looks so easy and should come out so beautiful that it should be on YouTube yet for some odd reason it comes out terrible. It might not have looked pretty but did it taste good? If it tasted good, then for me it’s a win.
If you need someone to eat those fails, put me first in line : )
Now that’s funny and pretty much how it would work at my house. Please say you were eating as fast as it melted.
Never let good ice cream go to ‘waist’. Thanks for sharing.
This looks so refreshing!
You’ve done wonders with ice cream.

Now that’s funny and pretty much how it would work at my house. Please say you were eating as fast as it melted.
My blender is out of commission at the moment; could I use my Cuisinart Food Processor? What would you recommend as far as processing adjustments? Thanks!

You have great tutorials and recipes, I’ll try to do it your way, I’m not sure I will succeed but I’ll try. Wish you a happy new day!
Thank you for the recipe for this ice cream, it looks delicious. I would like to try making this ice cream, but I am worried about whether it is harmful to the skin. The fact is that I have undergone skin treatment therapy, which is described here. Now I choose very carefully the products I consume so as not to damage the health of my skin
This feels like a fresh new level in gaming!
Next gaming level.
Hey there! It’s nice catching up with you all. Seems like we’re experiencing some early fall vibes with the temperature drop, right? Hope your week’s been treating you well despite that. 🍂 As for me, I’m crossing my fingers for my planters too!
But hey, on a brighter note, I’m thrilled to be part of Krista’s summer recipe hop today! Well, sort of… My contribution? Let’s just say it’s a fail. 😔 Sometimes things just don’t go as planned, right? I stumbled upon this video a while back and thought, “Easy peasy!” Oh boy, was I mistaken. Stay tuned for a laugh, and maybe a lesson or two in humility.
You have amazing tutorials and recipes. I’ll give your methods a shot—though I’m not certain I’ll get it right, I’ll definitely try. Have a wonderful new day!
This Ice-cream hack and fail is the best and it provides us with what we need to know about it. I saw there are people looking for these updates. Also, from the https://perthpressurecleaningexperts.com.au/house-washing I saw people are looking for the best services that are bringing us the right results.
Hey! It sounds like the weather is really shifting! Fall vibes can be nice, but I totally understand your papa’s games concern about the planters.
