1what a mess!  Feb 14, 2010
Bought it for a grandaughter. She had fun with it but, I was dissapointed no ice cream mix was included. The biggest problem was the mess. Ice cream pellets went everywhere.

1Not even close to dippin dots.  Jan 17, 2010
Okay, I wasn't expecting it to taste like the real ice cream of the future, but it's not even close! It tastes like frozen sugar water. For forty dollars, they could have done better! My child has had other frozen treat makers such as the Icee maker and the McFlurry maker. Again, not the same thing but the product was tasty and they had fun making them. There seems to be no point to the steps you go through to produce the final product here. A real big disappointment for my kid. Don't waste your money.

Purchased for my granddaughter who absolutely loves this toy. It takes time and patience but her mom has both.

3Will need a place to store this  Jan 04, 2010
My kids got this for Christmas. It's actually a simple toy. Mix some powder with water (or use your own juice or drink mix), put it in the snowman-shaped bottles. Place the bottles in the holder, release the valve on the bottles to fill a cup with the liquid which then fills the molds. Freeze.

The big white contraption is not necessary. One could just fill the cup which fills the molds, but it makes for a good show and the kids think they are doing something special.

The dots tend to stick together when frozen, so instead of putting them into the cute plastic cups, I just dumped it all into bowls and had the kids eat it like that. They ate maybe a quarter of what they made and froze the rest for later, which they never came back to eat.

I tried a few dots. They're not bad. They are not like the real Dippin' Dots, but the kids didn't seem to notice.

I think the biggest problem I'm going to have with this toy is the storage. It's quite a lot of pieces to store (and wash) and it takes up space. It's more exciting than it looks, so maybe its more of a rainy day (err, ultra hot 110 degree summer day) toy.
