Merry Christmas everyone! Well okay, it's not quite Christmas yet but I thought I would upload this festive ice cream anyways. I recolored crocobaura's "Chocolate Ice Cream" to make this new holiday-themed Peppermint Swirl Ice Cream just in time for Christmas! Or if you don't celebrate Christmas, it's still delicious ice cream all the same.
Is Peppermint Ice Cream even a thing?
Okay...so maybe I made up this particular flavor, but there are many different variations of peppermint or minty flavored ice cream. I just thought this was a little more festive! Plus to complete the look, there are two colorful candy cane sticks on the side!
Quick Details You SHOULD Know...
Downloading: I have created two different buckets to contain this festive ice cream, a Simlish and English version. DOWNLOAD ONLY ONE TYPE. Both buckets have the same guids so for your own sanity, please download only one zip. Both contain everything you need for the sherbet to work in game so there's nothing to worry about. (They are very clearly marked)
What You Are Getting:
Each zipped file has 3 items:
-a mesh of the ice cream itself
-an English/Simlish bucket
-a custom plate for the ice cream
The original creator of this mesh, crocobaura, designed a custom plate and you need it in your downloads folder for this to work (it is included).
Cooking/Serving: The ice cream has been cloned from base game gelatin, and so your sim won't need any cooking skill to pop it out of the fridge. You will find it under "Serve Dessert..." and "Make/Make Many..." if you have the OFB expansion pack. And as per the norm, it serves 6 sims. Your sim will eat it with a fork.
Final Thoughts...
I'm so very excited for Christmas to come that it was just absolutely necessary for me to make this ice cream. I hope you guys enjoy and please, if you have any comments, suggestions, requests, or love the holidays like me, feel free to leave a comment! And remember: all creators spend a ton of time on their creations, so please hit that thank you button if you like their work.
Merry Christmas!!
Curious to what I'm working on next? I keep a brief and updated segment dedicated to this on my profile page.

I could not have done it without all of their hard work before me!
