Let’s face it – most of us feel like there’s nothing like a delicious bowl of ice cream. In fact, ice cream is the ultimate happiness. Whether you prefer a cup or a cone, from the first lick to the last mouthful, ice cream is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face and add a spring in your step! It’s not just an old wives’ tale either – science has proven that ice cream can indeed have a positive effect on our mood.
Spring is finally here and what better time to enjoy cake and ice cream on a sunny afternoon. This stunning lemon cake relies on tart lemons to really show it off. Serve it with a good scoop of delicious, all-natural PURE New Zealand Lemon Curd Ice Cream to heighten the flavours and textures in the cake.
Since 2018, Brian Thomas and Anna Howard have been the driving force behind PURE New Zealand Ice Cream and have seen the business go from strength to strength. Already familiar with the brand and established devotees of the product, Brian, his wife Linzi, and Anna didn’t hesitate to seal the deal when the company appeared on the market and became owners and stewards of the brand in Sept of that year. Brian and Anna, who run the business day to day, quickly identified PURE’s 3 brand pillars: Nothing artificial - ever; Intensely delicious flavours; and Leave only the lightest touch on the environment. The recipe seems to have worked! Read on to find out more about Brian and the success of PURE New Zealand Ice Cream.
