Hot sauces
• If you wish to serve a hot sauce, heat it up
slowly. It is best to chill the ice-cream
thoroughly in the freezer before pouring the hot
sauce over the top. The sauces described
below can also be served cold.
• Serve the hot sauce either separately as an
accompaniment to the ice-cream, or pour it over
the ice-cream just before serving.
Cherry sauce
- Put the juice of one tin of cherries (stoned) in a
pan, together with the grated peel of one
orange and one lemon.
- Allow the mixture to simmer over a low heat for
10 minutes.
- Strain the mixture.
- Pour half a tablespoon of lemon juice and one
teaspoon of orange juice through a sieve into a
bowl and mix one teaspoon of cornflour or
potato flour with the juice.
- Pour this mixture into the hot cherry juice,
stirring constantly.
- Allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute.
- Add sugar to taste and a tablespoon of kirsch, if
desired.
- Add the cherries to the sauce just before
serving.
Chocolate sauce
- Break 100 grams (3¹₂ oz.) of dark chocolate
into pieces.
- Heat 125 cc (4¹₂ fl. oz.) of water together with
the chocolate until the mixture boils, stirring
until the chocolate is fully melted.
- Add one and a half teaspoons of vanilla sugar.
- Allow the sauce to simmer gently for another
minute.
- After the mixture has cooled, add 50 cc (13⁄4 fl.
oz.) of whipped cream. Stir well.
Cold (fruit) sauces
Fresh fruit can be used for these fruit sauces but
frozen or tinned fruits can be substituted if
desired.
- If fresh fruit is used, add the sugar in the ratio of
50-75 grams (1
3
⁄4 - 2
2
⁄3 oz.) of sugar to 200 grams
(7 oz.) of fruit (depending on the type of fruit
used).
- Press the fruit through a nylon sieve to remove
the pips. Cool the fruit sauces before serving.
• Do not refreeze fruit sauces made from frozen
fruits.
• You can, however, freeze fruit sauces made
from fresh fruit.

Children's Party
Use bright, cheerful colours to decorate children's
ice-cream. Choose flavours that children love.
For decoration, use whipped cream or ready to
serve vanilla custard, chocolate custard or fruit
yoghurt.
Decorate the ice-cream with chocolate sprinkles,
hundreds-and-thousands, sugar flowers, wafers or
small chocolates.
The children can make their own flags, drawings
and little parasols beforehand.
Let the children decorate their own ice-cream with
chocolate sprinkles, wafers etc.
