ICE CREAM
What a treat! It isn’ t just children who love the taste of ice cream – adults are pretty fond of it too. And when it comes to a hot summer afternoon when the air is heavy with heat, the sound of that ice-cream van jingling around the streets is a heavenly one. Ice-cream vans are incredible creations, but they aren’ t the only places to get some amazing tasting ice cream. We’ re lucky enough in Kent to have some incredible ice cream producers ourselves.
Solley’ s is a family run business that has been producing creamy, tasty ice cream for over 30 years. Only the best ingredients are used in their products, and the awardwinning ice cream makers source their milk and cream from a herd of cows who live only a mile away. Now that’ s local. The success that Solley’ s have had with their ice cream means that they have been able to open an ice cream parlour in Deal where you’ ll find sumptuous banana splits, sundaes, and 18 different flavours of ice cream.
Simply Ice Cream is another superb ice cream producer from Kent. Handmade in small batches using all natural and local ingredients, Simply Ice Cream is something special. There are no artificial
colours or preservatives here, no additives, just the real thing – fresh, seasonal fruit and ingredients.
Kent Life, that gorgeous farm that offers tractor rides, lovely teas, and a glimpse into Kent’ s past, even has an ice cream festival. It starts on 28th August, and is a chance for you and your family to sample a variety of different ice creams, chocolates and other goodies.
ICE SCULPTING
More ice! But in the absence of winter, ice really does the trick when it comes to lowering the temperature. At the Ice Bar in London, you can book yourself onto an ice-sculpting course wherein you are able to carve cold creations out of huge blocks of ice. Experts will be on hand to guide you, and you might come away with a brand new skill. If not, at least you’ ve kept cool.
The Ice Bar itself is a great place to hide away from the heat. It is kept at a steady, bracing-5 ° C all year round. You can only stay there for 40 minutes and you’ re kitted out in a thermal cloak and hood, but those 40 minutes will be the most refreshing of your entire day( and the drinks are pretty good too).
