Karl Melby

Karl Melby was my guest in July 2017. A fellow member of Self-Publishing School, he is the author of the mouth-watering book: A Million Ways to Make Vanilla Ice Cream.

Karl has his formal education and experience within Economics. The interest for numbers, finding a common playground with children and the love for ice cream has led him on the journey writing his book A Million Ways to Make Vanilla Ice Cream.

Karl’s delicious book asks the reader: Is it really possible to make something as simple as vanilla ice cream in so many different ways?

His answer is: Yes! Read and see for yourself!

I’ve read and reviewed Karl’s book, and this is what I wrote on Amazon: Quite apart from my love of ice cream, as a Mathematician myself, I was drawn to the concept that 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 1 million. So, with the six factors – starting base, thickener, sweetener, flavour, mixing and freezing – each having 10 options, there really are a million ways to make vanilla ice cream. Karl is clearly passionate about ice cream – and his book caters for all tastes and dietary preferences. After explaining all the choices open to the reader, his 30 recipes demonstrate how various combinations produce a delicious dessert. My favourite is the Vanilla Ice Cream with Mascarpone – it is amazing.
