Thrifty Ice Cream Scoop | Does It Really Work

The perfect ice cream cone, every time you use it- but does it really work?

[@armagerwien]

You're supposed to keep the scooper warm, so the ice cream releases easily. When I was a kid, Thrifty ice cream counters kept the scoop in a separate container full of hot water.

@@armagerwien my brother was a scooper, it's true they used water, but it was cold water.

[@BrandonMcCloskey]

Exactly what the person before me said. Thriftys always had the scoop sitting in a bin a freshly flowing warm water. Y'all didn't use it right

[@bcmprgraphics6378]

I recall they would keep the scoop in warm water to work properly

[@drylander9077]

Dip in water first. Always works 14 years of scooping at Thrifty.

[@ChrisBenavides-b9b]

Yea you guys did it wrong you're suppose to go straight down on it not scoop it from the side

[@BigMarv652]

Yes, so we will have to give their technique in using this scooper. A 👎🏾

[@thumper300zx]

They (Thrifty) has a little hot water reservoir for cleaning and heating the scoop continuously through use. You should be cleaning your scoop even if it's a different kind.

WORKS EVEN BETTER THE MORE FROZEN/COLD THE ICE CREAM IS AS WELL

[@kristenfuentes3459]

Best scooper ever👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@cafezo87934]

Thriftys ice cream is still the best. Definitely childhood nostalgia

[@GoMommaGo]

Yesteryear’s ice cream cones probably accommodated that scoop shape. It obviously worked years ago.

[@aquariusmoon771]

Because you weren't using it correctly - you need to dip it in warm water between scoops.

[@JT-ze7ql]

Not how you use a Thrify Scooper! It's supposed to be dipped in hot water first!

[@5yogurt]

You leave the scoop in warm water.

[@taunyascherette3418]

Not how it's done.

Thanks for the comments. I'll try it again with hotter water, I used tap water.
