Currently, there are two types of these household appliances on the market: automatic and semi-automatic. In principle, for a recipe in an ice cream maker, it does not matter which device you have (the main thing is that you have it). The principle of operation of both is the same: first mix the mass, cool it, and then freeze it. As a result, the outgoing product turns out to be homogeneous, not frozen, soft, as needed.

The question arises: isn't it possible to use a mixer for this? Answer: no, you can't. That is, it is possible, of course, but the mixer does not have additional functions like uniform freezing. And ice cream made with its help risks having crunchy ice cubes in the structure.
The most important products for any ice cream maker are milk (cream) and sugar. All other components like cocoa, chocolate, jam, syrup, fruits, berries, condensed milk and so on are added at will and according to the selected recipe. As a rule, ice cream recipes are already available in the equipment of the device. But you can always follow them online, for example, here))
