Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Vanilla ice cream — Make sure to use a high-quality vanilla ice cream for the best flavor and texture.
  • Strawberry sauce — If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can strain the strawberry sauce to remove the seeds.
  • White chocolate shavings — Use a fine grater to create delicate shavings of white chocolate.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a fun twist, you can add crushed pistachios or sliced almonds on top of the Spaghettieis for added crunch.
  • Experiment with different flavors of ice cream, such as chocolate or strawberry, to create unique variations of Spaghettieis.
  • If you don't have a Spaghettieis press or potato ricer, you can use a piping bag fitted with a large round tip to extrude the ice cream.

Serving advice

Serve Spaghettieis in individual bowls or dessert glasses to enhance the presentation. Add a small mint leaf on top for a pop of color.

Presentation advice

To make the Spaghettieis look even more authentic, you can serve it in a bowl shaped like a pasta dish or use a long, narrow dish to resemble a spaghetti plate.
