This Blueberry Ice cream will not turn you into a Giant Blueberry like what happened to Violet Beuregarde, but it is the perfect treat to eat while you re live Roald Dahls wonderful magic reading the book.
This recipe is so fresh and flavourful, it is totally worth grabbing those blueberries from the frozen or fresh setion of your fruit shop. Mr. Willy Wonka will approve your decision to make this quality choice!
