Peach Nice Cream and Mango Smoothie Duo

Peach Nice Cream and Mango Smoothie Duo

With the warmer weather creeping up on us and December heralding the beginning of Summer, the crisp and fresh  mornings call for chilled and healthy fruity treats. I would have never imagined ice cream being an acceptable option at breakfast, but with the creation of the nice cream, you could eat it everyday without feeling guilty. Summer brings in all my favourite fruit like peaches, watermelon, lychees, and mangoes, and I can’t wait to get creative by incorporating them into my desserts and breakfasts.

I started the breakfast series with the Pineapple Nice Cream Smoothie Bowl This is a continuation of delicious nice cream ideas, using only the freshest seasonal produce. These smoothie bowls and nice creams are so simple to make, as long as you have your fruit frozen. With the early season mangoes making their appearance in the local markets and supermarkets, I created a mango and dessert peach nice cream duo.
