Frost on Ice Cream is a horrible thing to have to deal with.
If after you scoop out the Ice Cream , you place a large piece of saran wrap over the top and use the Ice cream scoop handle to tamp the wrap on to the top of the Ice Cream, it will displace the air that causes the frost.

reloader-1I use the freezer gallon ziploc slider bags to store Breyers ice cream cartons - they fit perfectly, never any frost.

WetrudgeonWe suppose this is good advice for some, but at our house life expectancy for a half gallon carton of ice cream is short. Generally a carton of ice cream seldom lasts long enough to frost.
As an aside, we consider Blue Bell brand ice cream to quite simply be the best ice cream money can buy. Those of you who have sampled the wares from "the little creamery in Brenham" know wherefore we speak.
We trudge on.

flashguy^^^^^ Same here. I also buy Blue Bell, but typically only in the pint size, which I eat in 2 sittings.

Oz_ShadowI don’t really crave ice cream. I rarely eat it from the carton. At home I might have an ice cream sandwich if I stumble across it but other than that it’s just an occasional DQ one on a summer day.
My wife likes it out of the carton though. I don’t think it gets freezer burn.

darthfusterOkay, but what do you use to protect your Saran Wrap?

I live alone and the life expectancy of half gallon of ice cream is measured in minutes.

SBrooksBased on history - I kinda expected pictures of ice-cream with all manner of guns and knives layed beside it "for protection."

zoom6zoomBuy better ice cream and the problem won't be as likely to occur. Less water content.
