Whether you’re looking for a Thanksgiving pumpkin pie alternative or an easy way to stun guests at your next fall party, these little ice cream pumpkins are an exciting light finish to any meal showcasing an ancient tradition in dessert artistry.
Luxury ice cream or top quality sorbet is tempered, then hand-formed into a pumpkin shape using traditional ice cream molding techniques. The pumpkins are then hand-glazed with ice for surface decoration, a delightful crunch, and slower melting on the plate. The molding process removes much of the air normally found in ice cream and sorbets, concentrating their flavor.
Each pumpkin is roughly 2 inches in diameter and can be used as a small single serving.
St. Clair Ice Cream has been crafting these gorgeous desserts for weddings, fancy dinners, and other gatherings for over 22 years. The techniques they use for this dying art are far older, passed down to them by one of the last small artisanal molded ice cream shops.
Ingredients:
Mango Sorbet: Mango, Water, Cane Sugar Syrup, Lemon Juice, Pectin.

Vanilla Ice Cream: Milkfat and Nonfat Milk, Sugar and/or Corn Syrup, Eggyolk, Vanilla Extract, Stabilizer (Dextrose, Guar Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Carrageenan).

Caution: St. Clair ice creams ship with dry ice, which means that the temperature is significantly below freezing. Therefore, the ice creams will be very hard when taken straight of the box. Please let the ice creams sit in the freezer for a couple hours or on the counter for a few minutes before biting into them. Further, do not handle dry ice with your bare hands. Use gloves and place dry ice in the sink, away from children, where it can melt safely. Ice creams are produced in a facility that processes nuts and eggs.
Serve these ice cream/sorbet pumpkins as the ultimate light dessert at your next party or gathering. The mango sorbet flavor can also be served as a beautiful palate cleanser between courses at a fine meal (perfect for Thanksgiving!).
Keep them in your freezer until a few minutes prior to consumption (they will be too hard to eat straight from the freezer). Direct contact with metal will cause them to melt faster. If your bowls, plates or platters are metal, put an insulating layer underneath the ice cream/sorbet like a cloth, food safe leaf, or
edible flower petals. They would also look beautiful served on eco-friendly
disposable palm leaf plates.
