Ice Creams, Sorbets & Gelati
Caroline and Robin Weir's book is the biggest selling book on ICES that has ever been published. It is universally regarded as the bible on the subject. Since its first publication, over a decade of research and millions of calories went into the new edition which was published in 2010. Now for the first time since then the book is being issued in a paperback edition. The book has over 400 recipes covering ice creams, gelato, graniti, bombes, parfaits, instructions on making wafers, biscuits, punches, even ice creams for diabetics and vegans. All the recipes are written in the clearest terms in Metric, cup measurements and Imperial weights and measures. All techniques are described in the simplest terms and all your questions are covered in this comprehensive book. There are revelations, on the history of ice cream as well as the origin of the ice cream cone, plus dozens of new pictures and illustrations from the author's constantly expanding collection as well as a section on both penny licks and some hilarious soda fountain lingo. 'They have come up with what I think is the really definitive book on the subject.' - Delia Smith '...it is the illustrations that delight as much as anything. They hold the clue to so much that the authors have investigated about their subject, really bringing the whole matter to life.' - Nigel Slater 'What Robin Weir doesn't know about the history of ice cream is not worth knowing.' - Heston Blumenthal AUTHORS: The authors wrote Ices the definitive guide as Caroline Liddell and Robin Weir; since their last book they have married and now write as Caroline and Robin Weir. Caroline has spent her entire life teaching, writing and photographing food in her own right as well as for some of the most highly regarded names in food and is the author of several other cookbooks. Robin is the managing director of a pharmaceutical distribution company and is a director of The East India Company. He demonstrates and lectures all over the world about ice-cream making from the 17th century up to the present day. He is acknowledged as one of the foremost experts on ice cream.

Q: I’ve seen a product in store but can’t find it on your website. How can I order it?
If there's something you are after that isn't yet available here on our website, contact us and we'll see what we can do. If it’s something we have in stock and can send by courier, we will do our very best to make it available on our website.
Q: Why is there a minimum order quantity for some products?
Some of our products – such as beer and grocery items – can be bought individually in store, but we can only courier them in set quantities (such as boxes, cases or cartons). It is often quite a lot cheaper to buy in these quantities, which is why we show both the individual and bulk prices on the product pages. It’s always nice to know what you’re saving!
