Wanting something cold and sweet is easy. Finding the motivation to change out of your home clothes and go downstairs is another matter.
These frozen-treat finds cover everything from homemade ice pops to bowls, cones and chocolate drizzle. Some call for a little preparation, while others can go straight into your next ice cream session.
Popsicle / Ice-Pop Moulds Set of 4
A set of four ice-pop moulds lets you turn juice or a suitable fruit mixture into individual frozen treats. You can prepare a batch ahead and have something cold waiting when the afternoon heat becomes particularly personal.
Try different combinations across the four moulds instead of committing to one flavour. They are also a manageable starting point if you want to make dessert without adding another appliance to your kitchen.

Ninja CREAMi Ice Cream Maker
The Ninja CREAMi is one for people who want to get involved in making their own frozen desserts. It gives you a reason to experiment with flavours instead of automatically reaching for the same supermarket tub.
Start with a suitable recipe, then explore combinations such as coffee and chocolate or vanilla with your favourite toppings. Allow for the recipe’s preparation and freezing time, so dessert is ready for the evening you actually want it.

MEEVIDA Electric Ice Shaver
An electric ice shaver is useful if your idea of dessert involves a mountain of ice and several toppings. Use the shaved ice as a base for an ice-kachang-inspired bowl with syrup, red beans or a drizzle of condensed milk.
You can keep each serving simple or put out toppings for everyone to build their own. Just prepare those toppings first, because Singapore’s weather will not wait for you to find the can opener.

Heavy-Duty Ice Cream Scoop
A dedicated ice cream scoop is a practical addition if frozen desserts already make regular appearances at home. It helps you portion ice cream into bowls, onto waffles or beside a slice of cake.
Let a very firm tub soften slightly before serving so scooping takes less effort. Even supermarket vanilla feels a little more considered when it arrives as a proper scoop with a topping or two.

Bormioli Rocco Alaska Dessert Bowls
These Bormioli Rocco Alaska dessert bowls give your frozen treats a dedicated place at the table. Use them for ice cream, frozen yoghurt or a simple combination of fruit and a scoop of something sweet.
Serving individual bowls also makes it easy to customise toppings. One person can have crushed biscuits, another can have chocolate syrup, and nobody needs to negotiate what goes into the entire tub.

Silicone Ice Ball Mould
A silicone ice ball mould adds a small finishing touch to drinks served alongside dessert. The rounded ice makes a glass of iced coffee or tea look a little more deliberate, even if you are drinking it on the sofa.
Make the ice ahead so it is ready when you assemble your afternoon treat. Pair an iced drink with a homemade cone or bowl of ice cream for a café-style break at home.

Rolled Ice Cream Maker Plate
A rolled ice cream maker plate lets you try making those thin ice cream curls at home. With the plate properly frozen and a suitable mixture prepared, you can spread the mixture across the cold surface and practise rolling it.
This is a good pick if making dessert is part of the entertainment. Your first attempt may look more like scrambled ice cream, but the practice session still comes with something sweet to eat.

Cuisinart ICE-21 Frozen Yogurt and Ice Cream Maker
The Cuisinart ICE-21 is worth considering if you want homemade ice cream or frozen yoghurt to become a regular kitchen project. It suits anyone who enjoys choosing a recipe and making a batch to share.
Start with a straightforward flavour, then change the serving combinations with fruit, sauces or biscuit crumbs. Follow the preparation instructions and plan ahead, especially when making dessert for guests.

KOJI Egg Roll / Waffle Cone Maker Pan
This KOJI pan brings the crunchy part of an ice cream treat into your home kitchen. Use a suitable recipe to make thin wafers that can be shaped into cones while still warm.
It is particularly appealing if you enjoy the biscuit as much as the ice cream. You can also serve wafer pieces alongside a scoop, which gives you the crunch without requiring a perfectly formed cone.

Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup
Hershey’s chocolate syrup is an easy addition when you already have ice cream and want to dress it up. Drizzle it over a scoop, add sliced banana or finish with crushed biscuits for a simple sundae.
It is also useful for bringing a chocolate element to milkshakes and other cold desserts. Keep your favourite toppings together so putting a bowl together takes less time than deciding what to watch.
