Who doesn’t love a frozen treat on a hot day? From healthy fro-yo to
seriously indulgent sundaes, we’ve rounded up our favourite frozen
treats.
When you’ve got friends and family coming over for a
summer gathering, don’t slave over a hot pudding – make one of our
frozen desserts like ice cream cake, parfait or even a chilled tiramisu,
instead. Planning a morning in the kitchen with the kids? Why not make
lollies, frozen yogurt or even fruits-on-a-stick together? Healthy and
delicious – as well as fun to make.
If you’re an ice cream or lolly fan, you’re going to love our collection of frozen treats. Scroll through to see them all…First on the list is this easy lemon ice cream cake. Cake AND ice cream in one dessert – what’s not too love? This heavenly pud has a crumbly biscuit base and a lemony top. Make it ahead of time.

Frozen yogurt
Frozen yogurt is lower in cals, fat and sugar than most ice creams, plus the probiotics in natural yogurt make it really good for you. Learn how to make your own with our handy recipe for strawberry fro-yo.

Chocolate raspberry and vanilla ice box cake
This cake has certainly got the 'wow' factor. Made with raspberry, chocolate and vanilla ice cream, this ice box cake is sure to impress your friends and family in the summer months.

Chocolate and coconut ice cream sandwiches
Got some chocolate biscuits? Got some ice cream? Then you're ready to make an ice cream sarnie. Make this ultra-easy dessert fancy enough for dinner with friends by sprinkling coconut over the top.

Banana and yogurt ice pops
Our mummy blogger Anneliese created these delicious banana pops and they've been a big hit with goodtoknow users! You don't even need lolly makers, just little yogurt pots and lolly sticks.

Chocolate-covered ice cream balls
These chocolates conceal a hidden ice cream centre. Serve them up at your next family party - everyone will love them, and they're easier to make than you might think.

Cherry ice lollies
Making lollies with the kids is an ideal school holiday activity - it's cheap, fun and you don't have to go anywhere further than the garden to eat them! Our cherry lollies make the most of the summer fruit.

Forest fruits parfait
Parfaits are an elegant ice cream dessert which you chill in a tin so you can cut it into neat slices. They're also ideal for making ahead of time, so make our forest fruits parfait the night before you have friends over.

Coffee pavlovas
This elegant pud is perfect for family gatherings and special meals together. Serve scoops of homemade coffee ice cream on top of individual pavlovas. (Or you can cheat and use meringue nests and bought ice cream - we won't tell!)

Tropical fruit rockets
This has to be the healthiest frozen treat going - fruit on sticks! These tropical fruit rockets are made with different types of melon but you could also try grapes or mango chunks.

Milky strawberry lollies
We love milky lollies - they're almost like ice cream but not quite as naughty. Try making your own - all you need is yogurt, strawberries and lolly moulds.

Fruity cubes

Lime granita
This zesty iced treat is the ideal way to finish a heavy meal on a lighter note. You only need three ingredients to make this lovely Italian dessert of sweet ice crystals.

Watermelon and lime lollies
Sweet watermelon and tart lime make a winning flavour combination. They're a little tricker than some lolly recipes so if you're making them with the kids, you can make the sugar syrup and get them to help straining the fruit pulp and pouring it into the lolly moulds.

Banana split with chocolate coconut sauce
Blast from the past! We've given this retro pud a contemporary spin by pairing it with a rich chocolate and coconut sauce.

Lemon sorbet
A restaurant classic that's easy to make at home. Our recipe shows you how to make it without the need for an ice cream maker.
