Looking for a step-by-step guide on how to make legendary and mythical ice cream in Grow a Garden? This cooking update introduces several new ice cream recipes that are essential for completing quests and earning exclusive rewards from the NPC Chris P. Here’s how to create each ice cream variant, what ingredients you need, and the best way to use them for maximum reward.
What Is Ice Cream in Grow a Garden?
Ice cream is a new quest item introduced during the Grow a Garden cooking update. There are currently two legendary ice cream recipes and one mythical ice cream recipe, each requiring a different combination of fruits. Ice cream cannot be sold for extra profit or used to boost crops—it is solely intended for feeding the pig chef NPC, Chris P, in the center of the map.
Legendary Ice Cream Recipes
There are two legendary ice cream variants you can make:
Legendary Ice Cream Recipe 1:
1x Pineapple + 1x CornLegendary Ice Cream Recipe 2:
1x Banana + 1x Sugar Apple
Both legendary variants follow the same process and cooking time. Once completed, they are used exclusively for fulfilling Chris P’s craving quests.
How to Make Mythical Ice Cream
Mythical ice cream is a rarer variant and requires a slightly different recipe:
Mythical Ice Cream Recipe:
2x Banana
Mythical ice cream is not available in prismatic form and, like the legendary variants, is designed for quest turn-ins only.
