Calisson ice-cream for New Year’s Eve
Calisson ice-cream had been on our mind for a while now, since we got offered a tiny ice-cream recipes book with this one featuring. Calisson is a small delicacy from the south of France. It is aesthetically perfect, a smooth and silky pebble with sharp angles making it as streamlined as an Airstream van. […]

Making Ice Cream in the Land of Ice
Close your eyes and think about Antarctica. You will probably think of ice-bergs, pack ice, icy waste lands…generally a whole lot of icy thoughts. This is for good reason as 90% of the world’s ice is found on the continent. As part of my work a researcher at the University of Stellenbosch, I am privileged enough […]

Green Tea Ice Cream for Ben’s leaving party
I love green tea ice cream. I think the first time I tasted it was with my brother at a Japanese restaurant in New York more than a decade ago. I still think that some of the best green tea ice cream I’ve had is in New York, at the Chinatown Ice Cream Factory, a must-stop […]

Coconut, cardamom and banana ice-cream in the clouds
Once upon a time, some Triple Motion crankers had a crazy idea…the conversation went something like this: Jen:    “Hey Dave I’m coming to the UK, lets make some ice-cream” Big D:   “Sounds good. What did you have in mind?” Jen:    “How about cranking on top of a mountain in the […]

Pear, ginger and lemon ice-cream
South Africa is a great country. One of the many reasons for this is the abundance of public holidays bestowed upon its people, my favourite of which is National Braai day. For those of you who do not avidly follow the Triple Motion website and so missed out on the ‘Triple motion reaches the Southern hemisphere’ […]

This year for my birthday I received a wonderfully big surprise in a very small package. Turns out that Big D, my dad, and Thibault conspired to find the world’s smallest White Mountain Freezer and sent it for my birthday. After the usual debacle with Parcel Farce, I received the newest edition to our White […]

Passion fruit icecream
 With autumn approaching I’ve been kicking back with my feet up on the 1/2 gallon freezer (log fire, pipe, slippers, smoking jacket – you know the scene) and reflecting on a long successful summer of cranking. Looking back it seems that I’ve been so busy that I’ve written up precious few batches into the blog, […]

Chocolate & Chile Sorbet for the annual Mexican Party
We are big fans of Chocolate & Chile here and saw the opportunity to take our recipes to a new level for our annual Mexican party at John’s house. Lately I have been championing Chocolate Sorbet as the new pinnacle of chocolatey frozenness. It is the dark chocolate of the ice cream world, with an […]

Blueberry Ice Cream at Julie’s Birthday Party
Blueberries are a regular theme on Triple Motion. This is the story of our latest blueberry experiment. When Julie’s 30th birthday-party was approaching, we were trying to decide what kind of ice cream to make. We ventured out to the shops. PETER: These locally-grown blueberries are great. These aren’t the native blaeberries, but they’re still […]

Lemon and apricot pancakes
As a kid, I never liked pancakes -they had too much grease and too much egg. The thought of the annual ritual of Pancake Day filled me with dread. You can only imagine how happy I was to discover the Triple Motion buttermilk pancake! These fluffy little nuggets are a joy to eat and I can (and do) eat […]
