I got an email from SkyHorse Publishing asking if I would like a review copy and immediately said yes. So I got two copies in the mail. One of them has got a few splatters of almond milk and cocoa powder on it already, so that one will stay tucked away in my shelf.
Now I'm going to let you know all the reasons that you want to have this cookbook. Hannah is pure brilliance. Her classic flavors are tried & true, but her innovative flavors are where she really shines. The gravel path, her take on rocky road, and her german chocolate are wonderful. Her vanilla ice cream recipe is the best that I have ever tried… and I own three books dedicated to ice cream and have tried several other recipes from the blogosphere. However, my absolute favorite is the toasted marshmallow ice cream. It's pictured below on some chocolate chocolate chip waffles. A perfectly sinful breakfast!
I would have taken more pictures of the ice cream, but it was devoured a bit too quickly. I also don't want to show you pictures that don't do the ice cream near the justice that Hannah's photography does. If you want to know more about Vegan a la Mode, Celine of Have Cake, Will Travel gave a much more eloquent review than I could hope to muster.
I still have a few more recipes that I am hoping to get to soon. Especially her blue moon ice cream! It's such a vibrant shade. And I'm a sucker for bright colors. I know September might seem a little late for ice cream, but that's just false! I will confess that even though it was so chilly in my house last winter, I took a hot bath one night just so that I could eat ice cream while I was in the tub. No shame.
Have you bought Hannah's cookbooks? Do you have a favorite recipe?
I have been lusting after this book for so long, but haven't been able to justify spending money on a new cookbook when I haven't worked through all the recipes in the Babycakes one I got for Christmas. But ice cream is superior to all other desserts!
ReplyDeleteI've been reading Hannah's blog for a long time, but I haven't been able to get her cookbooks yet. I'd love to put my ice cream maker to good use with this one!
ReplyDeleteThis looks perfect!~!~!~!~!~!
ReplyDeleteYes please! I would love to make and eat every vegan treat ever, but have a special space on my taste buds for those of the frozen variety. :)
ReplyDeleteI had no idea I could buy an ice cream maker attachment for my mixer!! So yes, I would like this book.
ReplyDeleteEeep! This has been on my wishlist for quite a while! I've been looking for a book that offers more than just a bunch of soy milk recipes, and I have heard great things about this one. Yay!
ReplyDeletethanks for this giveaway!

I have been following her blog on Facebook and love what she puts out. Would love to win the vegan a la mode especially for my little guy who always wants ice cream!
ReplyDeleteThis post makes my day! Thank you so much for your kind words, and for hosting a giveaway. I've already shared about it since I want everyone to know (and visit your lovely blog!)
ReplyDeleteI love Kaminski and would love to have this book (I've never made ice cream before and am desperate to give it a try). I've never won anything before, so I doubt I'll be the lucky person, but maybe I'll eventually get my hands on a copy :)
ReplyDeleteSo much for not being lucky! Congratulations on your new book. Happy churning!
DeleteThe photos, the flavors, the thought of making ice cream and trying every recipe, all of these things sound super exciting to me! I'm a big fan of My Sweet Vegan and I feel my adoration of Hannah and her recipes will only grow through discovering this book.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a copy! Thanks for hosting this giveaway.

Beautiful!! It all looks so deliciousssss
ReplyDeletehow is it even possible for someone to have a cute ice cream scoop?! anyway, hope she has a peanut butter ice cream recipe!
ReplyDeleteI got this from the library, and after leafing through it for just a few minutes, quickly realized that I must have a copy for my own. There is no way I will be able to make all the flavours I want to try before I have to return it! There are so many that I am excited to make - the descriptions are great, and her photos are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my god!! How did I not know your blog existed!? I'm always so happy to come across vegan bloggers, so hi! Gonna leaf through the archives now ;)
ReplyDeleteYUM!! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI recently got an ice cream maker attachment for my KitchenAid and would love to try it out on Hannah's vegan ice cream recipes!
ReplyDeletevegan ice cream = heaven! and toasted marshmallow ice cream sounds phenomenal... I'm going to be checking out this book no matter what :)
ReplyDeleteI want to win the book. We are always making icecream here. The girls suggest unusual flavours all the time and often we try something off the wall and other times we just make vanilla or chocolate. Or both. Anyway. I love uour blog. I love the personality you ad to it.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this sounds great.
ReplyDeleteIt's not ice cream, but I recently made some delicious vegan crepes with cookie butter, Justin's hazelnut butter, bananas, and powdered sugar. Divine.
Hannah's recipes are always amazing - would love to try it out! :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love this! We just got an ice cream maker
