Thank you Blue Dolphin, Lisa and Anna. 

 

Well to answer a few questions and confirmations. 

 

We would like make enough for 30 portions a day, as there's 15 crew members and it would be good to have two portions each daily. 

 

Yes, we will keep the finished frozen deserts in the borrowed space in the chest freezer. 

 

We plan to use a Colemans ice box for delivering the frozen iced desserts to more remote locations several miles away.

 

Popcicles or small sized paper cups would be great, we would have to create a mould for the popcicles or maybe one could be bought in the UK and shipped out to us, so any recommendations of brands would be great. We would have to find a sterile wooden stick as these guys are on duty and don't really want them to concern themselves with recycling plastic ones, they will most likely get lost anyway.

The individual disposable paper cups may may be better, I saw some in town the other day. 

 

If the project works well we may upgrade to more of an industrial food processor, as we are planned to be out there several years on rotation. 

 

We also have a cuisinart ice cream maker that hasn't been used yet. It's a basic model with a bucket that gets put into a freezer that could also be used. 

 

Great at idea about measuring the freezer internal dimensions and getting plastic boxes to tessalate without wasting any space. 

 

So would you also think it an idea to blend/process and mix some fruit raw before freezing and then freezing afterwards?

 

The magimix is made by Robot Coupe with a 900 watt induction motor, so a strong motor but yes I have read that the bowls are vulnerable so we shall start with the Magimix 5100 but a recommendation for a better model food processor model number would be great. You never know our luck on eBay or donators in London. ;-)

 

Any advice on recipes or just to discuss these desserts in general would be great. 

 

It certainly makes a change to the Ready to Eat rations that we don't really use. 

 

Some of the chaps catch Barracuda and Snapper from the beach front with a rod sometimes. We made a good jerk sauce a few weeks ago which was good. 

 

So a little guidance to make these frozen refreshing snacks/treats would be great.

 

Thank you so much for the replies, it certainly helps and gives us some confidence, we're alright driving safety patrol boats and emergency survival, but some of us in the kitchen hut need a helping hand. lol

 

Thanks again, Alex.
