Ice cream anyone?
The Tuesday Home Group likes to go out for a treat occasionally and where better to indulge ourselves than an ice cream shop?
Ros Johnson On 19th October eight of us went out to sample the wares at the Just-Ice café in Poynton. As mentioned in a previous edition of HotPott, the café, which is located on Park Lane, is a social enterprise serving premium ice cream, hot drinks and cakes, all made using only natural and fair trade ingredients. It is a community hub, run on Christian values, and will create employment for survivors of human trafficking. The day we visited was just before the café officially opened. We can vouch for the fact that the ice cream is delicious; the only problem was deciding which flavour to choose! (Some of our number found the solution was to cover as many varieties as

possible by choosing the triple scoop option; no names, no pack drill.) You could invent your own sundae using a huge assortment of toppings and sauces. Who knew that someone has invented a topping in the shape of little purple unicorns? We had an excellent evening and comforted ourselves in the knowledge that if the ice cream is ethical it must be low calorie.
And Pott Shrigley Church Youth Group too… Nine of us from youth church decided to make the most of half term and on Thursday 28th October met at Just-Ice on Park Lane in Poynton.
Tom Murphy Just-Ice had opened earlier in the week, and when we arrived in the early afternoon it was clearly a very popular venue – the place was buzzing. They serve fantastic tasting ice cream made from natural and fair-trade ingredients. There was an amazing range of flavours: chocolate, vanilla, fruit crumble, toffee apple, white chocolate, raspberry, Malteser… 18 in all. Page 6
