Three ingredient, no churn ice-cream is easy sunshine treat
As the good weather shows no sign of ending, many families will be enjoying an after dinner ice-lolly or ice-cream to help cool them down after a long day in the sunshine. It's the perfect time of year to treat yourself to something sweet, but having to constantly nip to the supermarket to restock your frozen goodies can be time-consuming.
To save you both time and money, you could try whipping up your own no-churn ice cream at home, which could be a tad healthier than the store-bought varieties. Making your own ice cream doesn't need to be a long and laborious task, it can actually be a simple job with a great result.
Carnation's delightful recipe requires just three ingredients, with creators claiming it's so easy to make you could almost do it with your eyes closed.

Ingredients
600ml carton whipping cream
200g Carnation Condensed Milk
1tbsp vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
You will also need:
900g loaf tin or similar to store the ice cream
Method
Beat the cream to soft peaks then add the condensed milk and vanilla and beat again to soft peaks.
If you're adding extra flavouring to your ice cream, now is the time to do it! We like to add cocoa powder for a delicious chocolate ice cream, or mix through berry coulis for a raspberry ripple.
Pour the ice cream into a freezable container. Freeze until solid (about 3-4 hours or overnight).
Extra tip
Don't shy away from the amount of vanilla - for best results look out for vanilla bean paste as it will make the final ice cream taste like all the premium tubs in the supermarket.
A Carnation spokesperson said: "We adore this ice cream recipe - so easy you could almost make it with your eyes shut! So creamy, smooth and undeniably delicious... no stabilisers, preservatives or anything weird.. try it this week you won't regret it!"
Shoppers were quick to comment on the straight-forward recipe.
One person wrote: "WoW!! So delicious and easy! As I just moved and have no kitchen utensils, no whisk, blender, I wasn't expecting miracles. I used a jar and lid to shake the cream and condensed milk, added salted peanuts and chocolate raisins. Amazing. Really."
Another added: "Simple, quick and easy to make. Delicious. Serve in a cone on its own, or with fresh fruit. Great with a banana, toasted walnuts and drizzle of maple syrup Just like ice cream should taste."
Another agreed, saying: "I make this ice cream regularly and I really enjoy it. It is very easy to make just put everything in the bowl and beat it , worth the time to make as it tastes delicious."
One person said they tweaked Carnation's recipe and were delighted with the result.
They said: "So, I thought I had a can of condensed milk in the cupboard.
"Turned out it was Nestle caramel. Still, I had a go at making salted caramel ice cream. Boy did it work out well. Family loved it."

Shoppers cut down on plastic waste with 'amazing' soap that 'lasts way longer than shower gel'
It may seem a bit 'old school', but like vinyl records and ballet flats, soap bars are experiencing a bit of a revival. One brand, in particular, has been lauded by shoppers as a plastic-free alternative to shower gel that lasts longer, and leaves their bathroom 'smelling like an expensive spa'. Shower gels generally come in bulky plastic bottles, which usually clutter up the bath edge, disrupting the tranquil ambience of the bathroom. To combat this visual chaos, consumers are swapping shower gels for bar soap - a more sustainable option that not only smells good, but looks good, too. The independent brand Òir - pronounced oar, translating to 'golden' in Gaelic - is crafting handmade soaps that are becoming popular among those aiming to reduce plastic use without sacrificing quality or luxury. They're currently offering a discount, perfect for first-time customers or those looking to save on festive expenses, reports the Daily Record. To incentivise more people to make the switch, Òir is presently offering 15% off any purchase with a unique discount code. Additionally, free delivery is available on all orders over £30. Valid until 30 September, anyone who uses the code OIR15 will see their total cost reduced at checkout. Each bar of Scottish-made soap is priced at £12.50 and boasts an entirely plastic-free, vegan, and palm-oil-free composition, with the fragrance derived solely from essential oils. The cruelty-free soaps are visually appealing too, featuring exquisite designs coloured with natural clay and activated charcoal. They come in various aromas, including a scent-free option for those with sensitive skin, and Òir's soaps are crafted to be durable, outlasting your typical bottle of shower gel. Their formula, enriched with cocoa butter and shea butter, is described as 'super moisturising' and ensures the skin remains hydrated. In other news, AKT has introduced a body wash concentrate retailing at £26, which includes skin-balancing prebiotics, moisture-retaining olive squalane, and enriching vitamin E. This waterless concoction offers a triple-concentrated blend that comes to life once you hit the shower. Meanwhile, Wild is marketing their eco-friendly refillable shower gels, starting at £15.40 for a case and refill. The cases are priced at £12 and are designed to be replenished with your preferred scented shower gel for many years. Òir's soaps have been receiving rave reviews from customers who adore the fragrances. A customer commented on the lemongrass, clary sage, rosemary hand and body soap: "Bathroom smells like an expensive spa. Stopped using shower gels years ago and tried various soaps and this is by far my favourite so far. Smells great, lathers well, not drying on skin and lasts. "I use Oir soap every day," shared a fan of the cedarwood, clary sage, rose geranium, vetiver hand and body soap. "It smells amazing, and to know that it's free of nasties, cruelty-free and sustainable makes it the perfect soap. It lasts way longer than a shower gel and smells sooo much better." One customer expressed their reluctance to repurchase the soap due to its large size, stating: "The scent is really good, but I'm finding the size a bit big for my little hands. So much so I won't be buying any more." However, the brand suggests slicing the bars in half before use for easier handling. Another shopper, who enjoys the peppermint, lavender, patchouli, tea tree hand and body soap, said: "This is the second Oir hand and body soap I've had. Got one for Xmas and just had to have another. Smells stunning and lasts. Moisturising too. My shower room smells of it too. Will definitely be sticking with Oir." Whether you're a newcomer to bar soaps or a seasoned user, aiming to reduce plastic waste at home, mindful of what you're applying on your skin, or simply seeking thoughtful and sustainable Christmas stocking fillers, Òir could be an excellent choice.

Former Scottish industrial hub named UK's best place to buy a cottage
The region located just near Glasgow topped the list, which found that cottages in the area are typically priced at just £83,500. A former industrial hub in central Scotland has been named the most affordable place in the UK to buy a cottage, as interest in countryside living and cosy rural homes continues to grow. North Lanarkshire, located just east of Glasgow, topped a new ranking by property site Zoopla, which found that cottages in the area are typically priced at just £83,500. The area includes towns such as Motherwell, Wishaw, Airdrie, Coatbridge and Cumbernauld, places not traditionally associated with romantic cottage life, but now offering some of the best value for money in Britain, Scottish Daily Express reports. According to Zoopla, the word 'cottage' was the fourth most-searched term on its website in 2024, suggesting a surge in interest for more quaint and character-filled homes. With the rising cost of living and growing interest in the so-called 'cottagecore' aesthetic, buyers are increasingly drawn to smaller, more manageable properties set in rural or semi-rural surroundings. Daniel Copley, a consumer expert at Zoopla, said: 'Our data shows a clear and sustained appetite for the cottagecore lifestyle, a trend that shows no signs of slowing down. 'While the dream of a quaint, rural cottage is often associated with high prices, our analysis highlights that affordability can still be found across the country. "From the rolling hills of North Lanarkshire to the coastal charm of Sunderland, there are options for prospective buyers on a range of budgets. 'We're seeing this desire for a simpler life translate into market demand, with specific areas becoming hotspots for buyer interest. Whether you're a first-time buyer or looking for a change of pace, the cottage market offers diverse opportunities.' Cottages, while not strictly defined, are generally considered to be smaller and more rustic than traditional homes. Many are situated outside major urban centres, appealing to buyers looking to escape the hustle of city life. While North Lanarkshire was the most affordable area in the UK, East Lothian, just east of Edinburgh, ranked as the most expensive Scottish region for cottage buyers, with properties typically costing around £381,000. East Renfrewshire, south of Glasgow, also stood out in the study. It attracted the highest concentration of buyer interest in Scotland while still offering relatively good value for money, with average cottage prices around £100,000.

Nigel Bishop, founder of buying agency Recoco Property Search, said: 'There has always been a fan base of buyers who appreciate the typically charming designs and quaint surroundings associated with a cottage. 'Many house hunters also express favouring this style of home for size, as cottages tend to be smaller than typical country homes and are therefore considered to be more manageable and could reduce running costs. 'Often set in rural locations, buyers need to ensure that the setting works for them long term, as some amenities such as shops and hospitals can be further away which can become inconvenient. "Demand for cottages remains strong, however, and house hunters should brace for a competitive property search, particularly for cottages with a lower asking price as they tend to attract multiple offers.'
