Virtual Ice Cream Social Party & Giveaway

posted by Katie on July 16, 2012

The day has finally arrived… it’s time for my first ever Virtual Ice Cream Social Party! A few months back I had this dream… a dream to host a virtual ice cream social link party where all bloggers could share sweet treats of all kind and a fabulous giveaway!

Not only am I hosting a link party, but I’m also giving away one KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker Attachment to one lucky reader. I’ve owned my ice cream maker for over 2 years now and have easily made over 3 dozen batches of ice cream. You must have a KitchenAid Stand Mixer to use this attachment. It is super easy to make and within about 25 minutes you’ll have yourself about 2 quarts of ice cream, gelato, sherbet, sorbet,etc… the sky is the limit as to what flavors you can create. As I mentioned during my Ice Cream Google Hangout yesterday, I always keep my bowl in my freezer, so I’m ready to churn at all times. I mean who doesn’t love homemade ice cream?

Don’t worry–even if you don’t have a blog you can still enter for chances to win!

To enter the giveaway please use the Rafflecopter widget below:

a Rafflecopter giveaway

For additional chances to win or to just participate in the virtual ice cream social link party here is what you’ll need to do:

1. Submit as many frozen treats as your heart contents. I am not limiting entries to participate if you don’t have any ice cream recipes no sweat… submit a sorbet or a semi-homemade frozen treat!

2. Add the virtual ice cream social badge somewhere on your blog to show others you are participating. *The code for the button is on my sidebar!

3. Visit at least 2 posts–after all its a social! And while your at it you can share via social sites to get more involved!

*On Saturday, July 21st I’ll announce the winner and feature a few of my favorite recipes from the Virtual Ice Cream Social Party. Entering in this link party gives Katie’s Cucina the right to promote recipe via social sites, feature, and use 1 image with credits and link back on KatiesCucina.com

Disclaimer: I did not receive any compensation to write this post nor did I receive any product from KitchenAid. I received one KitchenAid Ice Cream Attachment to giveaway to one lucky reader! This post contains affiliate links which means if you make a purchase through my links I will make a percentage from your purchase. As always all opinions are my own. Giveaway is open until 7/21/2012.
