"This is what real strawberry ice cream should taste like. It's fresh and all natural. I like knowing exactly what's in the stuff we're eating, don't you? It'll turn out just a light shade of pink so if you want it pinker, add a few drops of food coloring. Splenda lovers- this will NOT turn out the same using splenda. It won't have the same rich, creamy consistency. I don't know why but it won't. Cooking time is freezing time...."
