One of the best things about having your own ice cream maker is that you can create a myriad of flavors not available at the stores, like this Cantaloupe and Mango Sorbet. The possibilities are endless with the abundance of fruits at this time of the year. Other popular flavors include chocolate, peanut butter, and liqueur for the adults. You can also make it as light and healthy or as rich and creamy as your heart desires.

Personal Ice Cream Maker

With the warmer weather upon us, it is time to bring out your the ice cream maker and start putting it to work. If you are thinking of getting one, now is the time to do it. For a long time I was hesitant. Finally, Ro-Ri San brought one home for me two years back and we have been enjoying some really cool flavors. Do check them out. Just click on the picture to get to the post.

Cantaloupe and Mango

Recently, the boys developed a liking for cantaloupe and so I try to pick up a melon or two whenever I am grocery shopping. A ripe melon is a sweet melon but it is not always easy to find one. I like to keep the melon on the counter for a couple of days so that it has a chance to fully ripen. It is definitely worth the wait!

My favorite fruit is the mango. We only have two to three types of mangoes here but it is good enough for me. The longish ones from the Asian market are especially sweet and delicious. I can’t resist buying a few whenever I am there. Sometimes I buy the entire case so that I get to enjoy them throughout the week.

This is the first time I am making sorbet. Melons and cream don’t mix. For this sorbet, I decided to combine the cantaloupe and mango for a more concentrated flavor. Cantaloupe is delicious eaten on its own but when juiced or pureed, it can be pretty mild. Because both fruits are pretty sweet, I only added one third cup of sugar. Please feel free to add more sugar if you prefer.

    Cantaloupe and Mango are my favourite fruits and now mango is in season. Definitely love to try this when I can get a ripe cantaloupe.

    I have never made sorbet either, though I do enjoy it in hot weather. You know I have mangoes in the fridge and that ice cream maker in the store room 😛 But, I think I’ll just drool over yours 😀 Lovely pictures, btw.

    What a great combination of flavors. I can’t wait to make room in my freezer to freeze my ice cream bowl so I can start making some ice cream too. 🙂 Loved your other ice cream too. Have a great weekend! ~ Ramona

    I love making sorbet! You’re right – there are SO many possibilities! I love the cantaloupe and mango combination! I’ve made just mango, but not cantaloupe. Sounds wonderful! I pulled my ice cream make out a couple of weeks ago and have already made 3 sorbets. 🙂 Of course mine is over 20 years old and the type where you have to put the blue ice in the freezer overnight and then self-crank. No big deal since I went from the HUGE manual ice cream makers where you use rock salt. 🙂 Putting this sorbet on my list to try! Have a great weekend.

    Looks wonderful, and what a great combination of flavours. I used to freeze pureed mango into popsicles. It was the first ‘solid’ food my son ever ate. He was sitting on his dad’s knee and grabbed the popsicle out of his hands and shoved it into his mouth! I’m going to give sorbet a go – I’m sure he’ll love it just as much. 🙂

    A colleague has been “persuading” me to get an ice-cream maker for a year already, and I’m still hesitant. Mmmmm…. after, looking at your sorbet, I’m drooling, Biren 😀 It’s not as difficult as I had envisaged…. Love melons, but I think I’d add some acidity to the sorbet, with a squeeze of some lemon or lime juice 😀 Thanks for the cool ideas, Biren!

    I haven’t made homemade sorbet in ages. And never a cantaloupe one (mango, yes). Great idea, and good recipe. You’ve inspired me! Good post – thanks.

    Mmmm…looks lovely, you are so creative with the ice cream machine. I have one all ready in the freezer, I just have to get going making it. You always inspire me when it comes to ice cream. I still want to make the ginger tea ice cream…my daughter is now drinking ginger tea, so I think I will have to make it for sure. Otherwise I thought I’d be the ony one eating it. 🙂
