If I could only have one dessert for the rest of my life, I would choose ice cream. I’m just as happy making my way through a freezer-burnt pint of vanilla Häagen-Dazs as I am dropping an obscene amount of money on a scoop of olive oil at Salt & Straw in Los Angeles. Ice cream, simply put, is my happy place.
Given how often I eat it, it’s not surprising that I have almost every ice cream gadget you could think of. My kitchen is home to ice cream makers, immersion blenders, and ice cream scoops of every size. I thought I had it all until I stumbled upon Amazon’s latest drop: Dalicode’s heated ice cream scoop. After years of eating what my mom would say is too much ice cream, I can confidently say that this smart gadget might be the, well, smartest way to serve it that I’ve seen yet.
Dalicode Heated Ice Cream Scoop

The obvious advantage of using an ice cream scoop equipped with a rechargeable battery and a heating element is that you don’t have to take into account defrosting time. Just as a watched pot never boils (until you leave and it boils over), a frozen pint of ice cream is rock-solid until it’s a soupy mess. With Dalicode’s scoop, timing isn’t an issue. The head heats up as soon as you grip the handle, allowing it to cut through frozen ice cream like a knife through room-temperature butter. So long as you wash the scoop by hand and avoid submerging the handle in water, it should last a long time in your kitchen.
Despite its recent launch on Amazon, reviews are already pouring in proclaiming its excellence to the world. In fact, one shopper called it a “total game changer,” adding that it’s a “must-have” for anyone who loves ice cream. A second person commented that it “glides through” frozen ice cream “like a dream,” and a third reviewer dubbed it an “excellent” summer accessory.
If posting up after dinner with a bowl of strawberry ice cream and a jar of hot fudge is also your happy place, don’t miss your chance to score the Dalicode heated scoop while it’s $4 off with a coupon. Only good things can come from such a purchase.
