Filed Under: Dessert Recipes, Recipes Tagged With: ice cream recipes

Jump to Recipe

This bubble gum ice cream recipe is super simple! Whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, bubble gum flavoring (optional), and bubble gum pieces! A sweet treat just like the one served at our favorite little ice cream shop in town. This post contains affiliate links. This post was updated with a step by step video in 2021.

My girls LOVE bubble gum ice cream. If an ice cream shop offers it, you can bet that is what both of them are going to ask for. It isn’t very often that we find it at our local grocery store, but our favorite little ice cream shop in California carried it! It was the first ice cream shop that I had seen it in since I was a kid. This recipe is a tribute to the blue bubblegum ice cream at Brock’s in Yuba City. All of their ice creams were homemade and were so delicious and creamy! They served the bubble gum ice cream with an extra cup to spit the bubblegum candy pieces into. The girls liked saving them for later. While gumball ice cream isn’t my favorite, it certainly is fun to make!

We used the basic no churn ice cream recipe that is very popular right now (we used this one as our base) and simply added bubble gum flavoring*, a bit of blue food coloring (or a couple of drops of red food coloring for a pink bubblegum ice cream), and about 6 oz. of gumball candies. SUPER easy and has a perfectly smooth texture. No eggs, no heating, and no ice cream machine required.

*We purchased the bubble gum flavoring on Amazon for about $5, but you can also find it at Michael’s (be sure to use a 40% off coupon!). You can also just skip adding the flavoring completely and add vanilla. It’s up to you!

    My daughter will do her nut if she finds out she can make her own bubblegum ice cream. Can’t wait to show her the recipe so we can try.

    Thank you for sharing your recipe! I can’t wait to make this! Do you happen to remember the name of the ice cream shop in California that you went to? I grew up in California and my dad would take me to Swensen’s ice cream and they had the best bubble gum ice cream!

      Good catch! I fixed it. You add it when you add the food coloring.
