Top 10 Ice Cream Recipes

As all my readers know, ice cream is not just a hobby for me, it's a passion. Going beyond just making ice cream and creating ice cream sundaes I like to delve into lots of other interesting areas such as the history of ice cream, ice cream sculpting and how ice cream in entertainment is a part of our lives. I even have pages on ice cream and movie stars and ice cream and US Presidents.

It's natural, therefore, for me to want to know what interests my readers so I study the analytics of my website regularly. In 2008 the site had over 1.15 million visitors - all looking for information on ice cream and ice cream making. Between them they viewed 5.18 million pages and used a staggering 123,378 keyword variations to find the site!

But which were the ice cream recipes they were most interested in?
Here they are - the top 10 ice cream recipes viewed on this site in 2008 (in order):

vanilla ice cream
strawberry ice cream
chocolate ice cream
banana ice cream
coconut ice cream
choc chip ice cream
butter pecan ice cream
mint choc chip ice cream
fresh coffee ice cream
honey ice cream & green tea ice cream (joint #10)

This will of course change as people's tastes change and they perhaps become more adventurous and as more people from more countries around the world use the Internet to search for recipe ideas. That's the one thing about ice cream - it's popularity is here to stay.

For more adventurous ice cream recipe ideas try my unusual ice cream recipe list. There's something for everyone .... blueberry ice cream for example. There are also wine sorbets and ice cream recipes for adults to enjoy for example at a dinner party.
