How to Avoid Ice Cream Freezer Burn
Well… here’s a simple way to avoid that ~ all you’ll need is a small piece of saran wrap!
After you dish out your Ice Cream… just place a small piece of saran wrap right on top of the ice cream.
Push down to flatten it against the ice cream… then put the lid back on before you pop it back into the freezer.
When you’re ready to dish out some more Ice Cream, just peel back the saran wrap… dish it up, then cover it back up with the saran wrap and lid.
The air is what causes the freezer burn, so this simple little trick will keep those icky frozen fuzzies away! Such an easy fix!

I also read and use the idea of just putting it in a freezer bag to help with the freezer burn and keeping it soft and not hard as a rock when you take it out and need to scoop it right away!!
Sandra says
I do this…then I put the ice cream in a plastic grocery store bag and wrap it around the carton before placing in the freezer. It gives the ice cream extra protection.

Nothing makes me more sad than seeing freezer burned ice cream (ok, so that’s not completely true, but it’s right up there!). If your ice cream DOES get freezer burned, don’t throw it out! I’ve salvaged many a carton by using it in a smoothie/shake – and amazingly you can’t tell at all! The last one I made was black cherry ice cream and I threw in some frozen fruit (pineapple I think), and whatever we had in the fridge (blueberries, yogurt, orange juice or milk)….de-lish!

Wait, some people really take so long to eat their ice cream that it gets freezer burn? That is definitely NOT my house, but thanks for the great tip!
