💡 Expert Tips
- Make sure to beat the whipping cream until stiff peak forms.
- Do not thaw frozen fruits completely as we do not want liquid in the mixture just fruit puree.
- I've made this recipe and kept it in the freezer for one, two and up to 4 weeks. I noticed it starting to form tiny icicles may be around three weeks mark, they are really really tiny and if you leave the container on the counter for like 3 minutes they are gone.
