our ice cream



Our tubs are plastic and recyclable (category 5). They are also useful reusable containers for freezing food and we enjoy hearing about other uses found for the finished tubs.

Here are some creative uses for a finished Mackies tub!

C Leal, used our Organic tubs for potting her plants.


Catherine McLennan suffered the loss of a vent cover on her familys roof during the gales up in Caithness. Here is a picture of their emergency tub measure which worked perfectly and stopped the rain coming through.


Send us your pictures of other uses for our finished tubs and any pictures we use we will reward with a voucher for a free tub of Mackie's Ice Cream.

You can email your pictures direct to nikki@mackies.co.uk
