I'd love to try this with dried violets.<br /><br />I'm using a Cuisinart right now that we bought at the thrift store, but I've also used Hamilton Beach makers. The problem with the electric ones (in my experience (and this is the third one I've owned) is that the motors eventually give out. The more expensive ones are probably made better, or at least warrantied. I know you can by a freezing bowl attachment for the Kitchenaid stand mixer. I'm not crazy about the plastic pieces on the Cuisinart, which on our last one broke within the first year just in the sink being washed. Still, I can't complain for what I spent. <br /><br />If you're really desperate to make ice cream, you can do it in a freezer tray, or do the frozen coffee can with a layer of ice and salt. <br /><br />On the plus side, if your machine breaks, keep the bowl and you'll have a spare one to keep cold at all times. Where you're at, the thing can just sit outside all winter and be cold without taking up freezer space. <br /><br />The self-contained ones sound really nice, and they have the advantage of not needing to freeze the bowl, but they are super-expensive.Goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383404429461423998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-3439792701816801432009-06-19T20:52:30.740-07:002009-06-19T20:52:30.740-07:00That is just the prettiest thing I have ever seen....That is just the prettiest thing I have ever seen.
