Ice Creams & Sorbets (choose any three scoops)

Bases & Garnishes

Tools & Serving

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Soften & chill

    Remove selected ice cream and/or sorbet tubs from the freezer 3–5 minutes before scooping so they soften slightly but remain firm. Place serving bowls in the freezer for 5 minutes if you want them extra cold.

  2. 2

    Prepare tools

    Run the metal ice cream scoop under hot water for 10–15 seconds and shake off excess — this helps form clean scoops.

Assemble the Royal Scoop Trio

  1. 3

    Choose three scoops

    Select any three scoops among Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Raspberry sorbet (VG), Mango sorbet (VG), and Lemon sorbet (VG). Example combinations: (Vanilla + Chocolate + Strawberry) or (Raspberry sorbet + Mango sorbet + Vanilla).

  2. 4

    Scoop into bowl

    Place the bowl or waffle cup on a flat surface. Using the warmed scoop, take the first full scoop and place it slightly off-center. Wipe the scoop, reheat briefly under hot water, then take the second scoop and place it adjacent to the first. Repeat for the third scoop so you have a visually balanced trio of scoops.

  3. 5

    Add base/accent (optional)

    If using a waffle bowl, set the scoops inside it. If using a plain bowl, you may place a shortbread cookie or wafer at the edge or underneath one scoop for texture.

Garnish & Finish

  1. 6

    Whipped cream and sauces

    Add 1–2 tablespoons of whipped cream on top or to the side of the scoops. Drizzle 1 tablespoon chocolate sauce over chocolate or vanilla scoops, or 1 tablespoon fruit coulis (raspberry or mango) over sorbet or fruity ice cream.

  2. 7

    Nuts, berries & mint

    Sprinkle 1 tablespoon chopped toasted nuts over the scoops if desired. Add 2–3 fresh berries to the side and top with a single mint leaf for color.

  3. 8

    Serve immediately

    Insert a short spoon or wafer, serve the Royal Scoop Trio immediately so the scoops retain their shape. Provide napkins — melting will begin within minutes.
