Unemployed and destitute miners in the south of Venezuela's gold-rich Guayana region are signing up for courses in ice-cream making!

VHeadline Venezuela News reports: It's part of a project introduced by visiting Ecuadorean Ambassador, Blanca Quiroz Ugarte, who is to give instructions and donate a number of ice-cream making appliances in El Callao and Tumeremo.

The ambassador says training will be given in the production of ice-cream from powdered milk and local tropical fruits that are easily found in southern Sifontes municipality. "With a kilo (2.2 pounds) of powdered milk, we can make up to thirty pounds of fruit ice cream. The preparation only needs a hand-held blender, natural stabilizers and emulsifiers ... the rest is up to the individual taste of those who prepare it.

• The next ice-cream making course is to be held at the Masonic Lodge in Tumeremo on at 2:00 p.m. on Friday (September 26) and in El Callao on Saturday (27th).

Ambassador Quiroz Ugarte has visited villages in the south of Bolivar State over the last four months, to teach how easy it is to turn powdered milk into so much ice cream. She has been giving out her personal recipes for light, fruity and exotic ice creams and says they can be made in any flavor the ice-cream maker wants. She says it gives her an ideal way work with housewives, pensioners, students and the unemployed to help them build businesses as artisan confectioners capable of all kinds of cooking.

Interested parties have been advised to call an information line on 0416-331.79.13 and/or 0414-886.87.92 or visit the Ambassador's webpage http://www.blancaugartequiroz.com/ to view courses which include instruction, ingredients, cookbooks, certificates and a post-training course.
