Making DIY NO-CHURN VIENNETTA ice cream cake at home (Misadventures, part 3) 

If you let the chocolate halfway set up, use a knife and cut your pieces and then let it solidify. You will be able to get any shape your want.

Vienetta is £1 in the UK ($1.37), this is why it's okay that it tastes like crap. It's considered a very poor, low quality ice cream with a 1990s vibe - only eaten for nostalgia.

June, you did such a good job! Not just the food part (obviously), but the shooting and editing! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

I'm so here for June producing her own videos, be it neighborhood adventures, eating out or cooking experiments - this gold content is very much appreciated! 🙏 Say Hi to Fred from Scottish straight kitty called Minya from Belarus 😺

"Viennetta, and.. whatever you wanna call this." I propose Viennotta.

THIS is the June content I'm here for... an obsessive quest for the perfect viennetta. (in a bad italian accent, while doing a chef's kiss: "Perfecto!")

what I learned after years of reading and watching recipes, is that if the recipe calls for you to mix your yolks first and then wash and dry your mixers and then whip your whites, no way the author made it by themselves-it's the most basic economical kitchen move, save your time and energy and water and mix the damn whites first! your semifreddo looks amazing, the color is (to me) more appealing than the bleachy Viennetta and just by looking at it, I'd say it's a rich vanilla taste, so it's even cooler you made it minty. nicely done June!

Hey June!!! You can actually make semifreddo with cooked eggs, it’s called “parfait” here in Italy. Basically you can substitute sugar with sugar syrup at 121º C 💪🏼, making respectively Italian meringue instead of French meringue and “pâte a bombe” instead of raw egg yolks and sugar. Surely it is a little more time consuming (and not the easiest thing to do), but you’ll end up with an ice/sugar crystal-free texture and, most importantly, everyone can enjoy it 🥰😘 Love your videos btw!!!💕💕💕

Wow, good job June! As an Italian, I must confess I never liked Viennetta since it appeared on the market in the '90, if I recall well. My family loved it and it was very often their dessert of election, especially for summer gatherings. I just ate a few bites with more crispy chocolate and gave the leftover "cream" to my dad. Pretty sure a homemade version with better quality ingredients and a personalized flavouring would appeal me more too (I'm thinking maybe coffee or matcha or - even though I think you'd hate it - liquorice).

June makes cooking look so natural and easy. I also like how she says the word “also” - she always says “oh so”, as in “June is oh so talented”. And “whiteness wins in this world.” Keeping it real. Chef’s kiss, June.

Here's how it is, vanilla icecream with thin flakes of chocholate is always good. It just is. I used to make vanilla icecream at home and use the cheap "chocolate for cooking" they sell here in former Yugoslavia. I would melt it in a little butter or oil on low heat on the stove and just poor on greased paper. Cool it in the freezer. Tempering is pointless in this case. Then I would break the chocolate into smaller flakes and stir them into the icecream. Lovely 🙂 I also used to add peppermint.

"When you're done being a perfectionist..." Love it.

Thank you for being a curious soul and doing the things most people are too lazy to try 🖤

In the UK Viennetta is usually £1!

Yours looked so much better!

the one you made looks 1000x better

In Germany Vienetta is about 1-2€ and there is another icecream maybe you will like more „ langnese königsrolle“ it means „kingsroll“

I love your Viennetta-adventure and how it results in this ice cream! :)

This video excited me when I got the alert it was airing. You did not disappoint and I’m glad you made it on your channel and not for delish like I had suggested in the comments in misadventures #2. lol you made my day and gave me kitchen inspiration to make a dessert I’ve been putting off. Thank you

June !~ Loved this recipe👌🏼 You should ditch delish and go solo~🙌🏼😋 Just wonderful!~

I’m making this at Christmas time. An eggnog version would be dope too.

Absolutely love!!! Good job June! I love how you smiled when Aaron loved your version, it made me smile 😊 keep up the awesome work!

You make it look so easy!!!! And you're editing was on point!!

Congrats for these version!!, Looks so easy and yummy 😊

Thank you for eating so casually and enthusiastically on camera, and then honestly filming your second helping. It was a satisfying and realistic end to a great episode!! Bravo!

Bloody love Vientta ! It's childhood for us 🇬🇧

Great video! I have missed seeing your smile while cooking.

thank you for this i’m absolutely going to try making it now :)

Thx for the Video, June, this icecream ❤️👍 and Aaronˋs Shirt…., made my day! 🙋🏻‍♀️👏👍

I remember seeing these in stores all the time as a kid, but it was always too expensive for us. When I finally tried it, I was disappointed. This one looks delicious and I need to make it, now.

I remember making a semifredo with candided pistachio years ago. I remember it was easier than I tought and absolutely delicious. Gonna try again with chocolate layers, thank you June! (And thank to Aaron for starting this journey.)

Y'all are getting scammed! It costs between 1 and 2 euros across Europe! It's super cheap low quality frozen dessert but we all love it cos it reminds us of our childhood.

So glad you have your own channel 😅😊❤🎉

You’re a genius, June! Also love the microwave for tempering chocolate hack because I hate tempering chocolate over a double boiler

Thank you for posting ethical chocolate links; I found my favourite Canadian chocolate, and I thought I'd never eat it again because the shop where I bought it closed, thanks to Miss Rona.

Looks so good!!!

This might be my favourite RU-vid video ever

This is almost how I make chocolate mousse. 😳 Definitely going to try freezing it though. ❤

I used to daydream about Vienetta as a kid. Finally got one for my tenth birthday and was a bit disappointed in that tiny thing.

Amazing work! It’s an ambitious feat but you did it. On another note, sometimes I like playing your videos in the background while I scroll through reddit. I’m in bed with a breakthrough Covid infection and miss the chatter of my friends. Lotsa love.

Thanks for the video. Never heard of semifreddo before. I just use the heavy cream + condensed milk mixer recipe for ice cream cake. Since we don't have heavy cream in this country, I use whipping cream powder instead of heavy cream. It turns out great. I really should try making those thin layers of chocolate. I usually just make a ganache with a bit of glucose syrup mixed with homemade chocolate ice cream then oreo layer then vanilla ice cream on top.

June’s looks so delicious!!! I would pick hers all day…. Even if I didn’t know who made it!

Bet it’s gonna taste better than the one you hunted down lol

I really like your cooking videos either here on on delish!

I’m so dumb. I thought this channel was only “lives”. I’ve been missing out.

o man, this brought back memories. this was my dads fav ice cream and we could only have a taste of it and when we did, it was the best thing! lol

We love you June!! Love from Gula Jawa, Spider Mitzvah and Golda Meir 😻 And us humans too of course!! Hey from Manchester UK xxx

Impressive- I was salivating! Expectations exceeded 🤣 🤣 🤣

It is so funny because my hubby and I did the same EXACT thing and searched for the VIENNETTA! I thought it was so plain and tasteless! SO DISSAPOINTED!!! Your homemade one looked spot-on!

How much for Viennetta?! yikes, defo not worth it! As people mentioned, in the UK it is £1, considered cheap ice cream. And yours looks so much better!

🍦 June you are awesome.

Well done. Yours is so much better in every sense. Viennetta is an old desert in the old continent, out of fashion certainly. I can't understand the fuss in the US. Also semifreddo is a type of desert not the cream itself. Like ice cream you can have various tastes and shapes. Sometimes the whites are substituted for mascarpone for sime more indulgence

Top 10 youtube creators here my opinion. Excellence.

Having a O-o at what you had to pay for vienetta. In the UK (home of it and all that) it’s usually a one quid thing!!

Finding them fine royalty free tune, June ! 🎶🎵

June yours looked a lot better. And I’d prefer the yellow over the white

I like the colour of yours better. That's the colour of real cream and in mho much better tasting.

June, try the japanese one by Meiji sold at asian supermarkets!

Gosh I love this video, just wish you would add the recipe pretty please?

16:58 a very subtle james ?

❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm waiting on here for 10 hours till it starts

Viennetta is 3,32 euros in The Netherlands, max. That's about 3 and a bit dollars. Lucky us!

Yes I like your house diy one

Hey June, that looks great! Also, what happened to your fingers?

I don't know if this will make you happy or sad, but in Massachusetts & New Hampshire there is a supermarket named 'Market Basket' that carries the Viennetta Ice Cream Cake by good humor. what I remember is that the cakes are placed in a different location from the daily ice cream. look at the end caps and cake storage areas. I know that the Rindge, New Hampshire location has it. Good luck on your misadventure. your subscriber, Miss Kathleen O'Neill

Who on earth keeps giving June a thumbs down?...I don't get it smh

I came for the ice cream, stayed for the parchment skills.

I dub this the June Log.

I was curious so looked on my grocery store app and ours has it! $5.49 for us (Chicagoland), you definitely got that NYC upcharge at $8+! Might have to get it next time, but still not sure if it’s worth it.

I want to make this and add pandan extract to it!

Hi June, first time here, you're pretty awesome 😂 Any suggestions about keeping the micro crystals at bay? Def going to make this, its June and gonna be hot soon Thank you!

Maybe try Aldi, in Australia they do an own brand vienetta for $3.99aud

Can't even eat dairy and I'm still here for it 👌

Pretty sure in original Vienetta there isn't even chocolate, but a chocolate-fat thing... yours looks SOOOO much better and the peppermint plavor made me drool so much until I realized we still had peppermint icecream with chocolate thins in it in the house. Jeez, you need a disclaimer for junkies for your videos! *lol*

Awesome content as always. What I'm wondering about is: Is Fred named after Semifreddo then? Hehehe.

I think yours looks rich and delicious June. It HAS to be 1,000,000,000 × better than that store bought chemical junk!

That expensive!!?? Omg. When you or if you ever travel to the Netherlands. Go check out our different flavours in the grocerie stores. This is something I grew up with (the middle part is soo good) but not for the amount you had to pay 🙈

Viennetta is also very expensive and boring-tasting in Indonesia. At some point it was very sought after but now it's pretty much like any other ice cream.

June, have you tried stracciatella gelato? It doesn't come in a fancy loaf shape, but it still has texture and feels like more of a flavor boost compared to viennetta.

Honestly, I don’t even think it really looks the same as it used to back in the 90s it was a lot bigger and it just tasted a lot better now it almost taste like there’s nothing there the most taste like you’re eating Erin chocolate

Does the egg mixture not get cooked

How much did it cost to make your version?

martha stewart made a cake like this when I was a kid and i've been dreaming of it ever since..... June > Martha Stewart

Yum!

wonder if you could use butterscotch chips instead of chocolate, as I am allergic to chocolate?

I can't find the recipe!!

Will this recipe work if I want to make it durian flavoured? Using fresh durian pulp?

I think your store Vienetta was melted and refrozen. It is very smushy on the corners.

What about pouring chocolate shell layers in between? I think its just chocolate and coconut oil. Peanut butter shell AND chocolate shell would be even better!

Same thing with the disappointment with the Vienetta. I managed to track one down and was underwhelmed at the eating. Maybe all the hype built too much expectations.

Wow now that I think about it, I remember tasting viennetta while I was in Japan of all places. I'm sure it will be good but isn't June lactose intolerant?

1 pound in asda 🇬🇧

Tomorrow?

Would it be possible to make a peanut butter version instead of mint?

Vienetta isn't made in the US. Over here in Sweden it costs $2.50 in the stores. But I agree, it's not very tasty.

The shitty vienetta will be 40+ in my currency. So glad to find an alternative.

I thought the chocolate was magic shell. Instantly hardens when poured on top of ice cream. The hard part is making the ice cream.

I still don’t get why it’s so expensive in the us when it’s a pound in the uk

So all the good stuff ends on up on your personal channel these days not delish?
