Junket Ice Cream Mix Dutch Chocolate, 4-Ounce (Pack of 60)

My ice cream maker stays busy all year, but especially in summer. Nothing beats this ice cream mix if you use this recipe. Of course there's a recipe on the box, but I use 2% milk (1 2/3 cup) and 1/3 cup cream so I save calories without giving up great texture and taste. Mostly I use the vanilla mix since I like to add various things to make wonderful flavors like peaches, pitted cherries, pumpkin and spices, crushed peppermints to name a few, but getting a really wonderful chocolate ice cream with depth of flavor is not so easy, so I just go with this mix for that. I've not been able to find the chocolate flavor in any store and am grateful it's available here for a reasonable price (at this writing anyway). The vanilla mix is higher priced here for some unknown reason and not prime shipping so I was glad to find I could replenish my stash at a local store. I've been making my own ice cream with this brand mix for several years now and find it so much easier than making my own base. The texture and flavor are great and there are no unpleasant ingredients. The prep is wonderfully fast since I just blend the milk/cream and a box of this mix with a stick blender right in the 1 quart container that goes in my ice cream maker. Couldn't be easier and the results are heavenly. Any left over stores well in the freezer. Final note: To make your own 'magic shell' topping which my grandchildren always ask for, melt a tablespoon (or a bit more) of coconut oil and up to a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips together, stirring constantly (takes just a couple of minutes) and drizzle over the ice cream. I store the remainder in a small mason jar and reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds for the next dessert. It's great over chilled fruit too.

I searched and search in stores trying to find Junket Ice Cream mix. Could not locate this in any stores. Was always told this was a 'seasonal item'. Well, not on Amazon. I have tried other packet mixes and most are horrible tasting or very grainy. I ordered one of each Ice Cream Flavor. The flavors are rich, smooth and tastes as if it was freshly made using all the costly ingredients. I personally prefer Vanilla but the Strawberry and Chocolate are great too. Each box makes approximately one quart which is perfect for most Electric Ice Cream makers. This leaves room if you chose to add other things such as nuts, chocolates, marshmallows or fruits. Some people have complained because this calls for 1 1/2 cup Milk and 3/4 cup of heavy cream. Sure cream is expensive however when I was making this from scratch that used 3 cups of cream and 2 eggs along with the sugar and this had to be cooked and cooled. The junket is quick mixing and into the freezer. With all the disappearing products from years ago I am happy to see that Junket has survived and is still around for the kids of the new generation to experience what real Ice Cream is supposed to taste like. Sure you can use Soy Milk, Rice Milk on and on but frankly if your going to eat Ice Cream, then make it the real way... With Cream Anyone that doesn't like this product obviously has never been on a Farm and experienced real tasting foods.

This little box contains a brown chocolaty powder. The instructions tell you to add two things: whole milk and whipping cream. By itself, whole milk and whipping cream, with a little sugar and frozen, IS ice cream. So what does this little box give you that some sugar and powdered cocoa doesn't? I have no idea, but it's worth it. Whatever is in this powder does two things you won't get from the plain ingredients alone: volume, and thickness. The ice cream was thickening so quickly that what should have taken 20 minutes to reach was thick enough to overwhelm my electric machine in 10. The volume more than doubled over the liquid base, which is about 50% more than with plain ingredients. These alone make it worth it. Flavor-wise, there are no complaints. It's chocolaty and sweet... nothing spectacular, but no worse than you'd get out of your store freezer.

not the best flavor, not the worst. formula worked well enough in my ice cream maker but taste was mediocre. could be a good base if your the type to mix in flavors (nuts and banana's and chocolate chips would be nice with this mix) but on its own, meh.

I use this in my Cuisinart ice cream maker and it works great! It tastes just like soft serve ice cream I get at Mcdonald's or any other soft serve restaurant. I was impressed with the taste and ended up buying vanilla and strawberry which also tasted amazing!! A must buy for at home ice cream makers!

I just made some of this in my Cuisinart ice cream maker. Very easy - just mix milk, cream, and the mix until the mix has dissolved, then freeze. No cooking required, which is the main reason I bought this. Very good chocolate flavor with nothing artificial. I will definitely keep coming back to this product and may get the other flavors as well. I wish they made a larger variety!

This one taste real chocolate, and it freeze more quicker than Vanilla mix. For Vanilla mix it takes also 15 mins. to get freeze up as ice-cream but this Chocolate mix takes less than 10-12 mins. I had a soft ice-cream machine, I thought it takes the same time as Vanilla but by the time I stop the ice-cream maker, the Choc ice-cream already hard as rock and can't make soft ice-cream. You will never fail using this mix to make your DIY ice-cream, it takes me less than 5 mins. to mix it, originally you only need to add milk, but I add 200 ml milk and 40 ml cream to make it more thicker and creamy. If save a lot of time, and with this mix, you can make you own ice-cream in a short time (of course, you need to have a pre-freeze ice-cream bowl), I put the ice-cream bowl in my extra freeze all the time so whenever I need to make ice-cream, its ready to use.

Junket has been around for decades. I saw my great grandmother use it for ice cream. Recently we saw it advertised and bought a small case of it. We were amazed at how great the chocolate Ice Cream Mix came out.( the one we bought) It was awesome and lightning fast without the egg custard necessary for good quality ice cream. We even used just whole milk and no cream and it was great ice cream..We recommend this product for those that want a quick treat or a handsome dessert done done up just before dinner guests arrive. You do have to use two of the small boxes for a good quart but Who knew?
