Sweet Rose Creamery Staff Makes Banana Ice Cream with 3rd Graders at Marquez Charter School

Recently Chris and Bella from Sweet Rose Creamery made banana ice cream with Ms. Bihari's 3rd grade class. Sweet Rose Creamery is part of the Rustic Canyon Restaurant Group. One of their stores is in Pacific Palisades.

Sweet Rose is a good fit for our school as it uses organic ingredients. There special monthly flavors use seasonal ingredients.

Chris explained the four main ingredients in ice cream: milk, cream, butter and sugar. He had pre mixed some of the ingredients but also had the students take turns adding them together and adding vanilla, bananas and salt which he then put into an ice cream machine.  The kids were able to taste the ice cream at a couple different points in the process.

Chris and Bella served the children banana ice cream and brownie bites that they had brought from the store as the ice cream maker would take 90 minutes to complete the process.
