Ices: The Definitive Guide – Caroline Liddell and Robin Weir

Description: "The heart of this book is an imaginative collection of over 200 ices from the familiar to the exotic including sorbets, sherbets, gelatos, parfaits, spooms, granitas and ice creams. Classic French, Italian and American ices are represented as well as those from Asia and the Middle East. The majority are entirely original, from the delectable Pippin and Rose Petal Ice Cream to the wholly modern Gin and Tonic Sorbet, whiles some – such as the Victorian delicacy, Stilton Cheese Ice Cream and Mrs Marshall's Ice Cream – are over a century old. These detailed recipes have all been thoroughly tested and cater for both adult and children's tastes. All are equally suitable for making with or without an ice cream making machine."

Illustrated throughout with lovely b&w reproductions of vintage ice-cream adverts, facsimile extracts from antique books on the subject, plus other ice-cream related ephemera (postcards, &c.).

Glazed pictorial covers. The book is in immaculate condition inside and out.
