Winter often calls for warmer desserts but what’s a malva pudding without a dollop of vanilla ice cream?

Not that we need any motivation to eat ice cream whenever we want, there are however a few rational reasons to enjoy the cooling treat even in winter, according to Spoon university.

1. Ice cream is great for soothing a sore throat (anyone who’s had their tonsils out will know this!)

2. Your caramel ice cream on a sugar wafer cone won’t melt by the time you walk away from the ice cream truck.

3. Ice cream goes great with those warm puddings and fudgy brownies.
