This summer, most of my breakfasts have been frozen… Frozen yoghurt pops, fruit smoothie pops and now this Mango Lassi Frozen Yoghurt. Even when, on quite a few occasions, the weather has been grim (12°c and pouring with rain) I’ve kept up this frozen breakfast habit. It’s a pretty refreshing way to start the day!

Vegan Strawberry Shortbread Ice Cream
To make the most of stop myself eating all of the shortbread I made earlier this week, I decided to use some of it for a recipe idea I’ve been thinking of for a while… Strawberry Shortbread Ice Cream! I can’t describe how amazing it is. But I’m sure it’s not hard for you to…

And of course, warm…
Salted Caramel Ice Cream (Vegan + Paleo)
I’m quite late jumping on the salted caramel bandwagon, I admit. But this recipe was just too good not to share! The ingredients are very simple; coconut milk, coconut sugar and a pinch of sea salt.
