Shoppers rush to buy Slush Puppie machine to beat the heat at home

The simple-to-use slushy maker is available at Amazon and comes with a host of syrups to whip up the ultimate retro refreshment Longer and hotter days are finally here, and while the majority have been looking forward to warmer weather, staying cool and comfortable during the days is becoming more of a challenge. When the heatwave hits, there's nothing quite like an ice-cold slushie to help take the edge off, and shoppers can find one voted an Amazon Choice product by shoppers. For those who want to recreate those nostalgic, frozen treats from the comfort of their homes, the Fizz Creations Slush Puppie Snow Cone Machine bundle is available on Amazon for £56.99 and it's a great option for entertaining on sunny days. The clever machine makes it simple to whip up refreshing snow cones and slushies from the kitchen counter. The bundle includes a pack of four iconic flavours: Blue Raspberry, Strawberry, Cola, and Lemon & Lime, so there's something for every taste. Featuring a handy ice-shaving mechanism, the Fizz Creations Slush Puppie machine transforms ordinary ice cubes into finely crushed snow, ready to soak up those classic-tasting syrups. Home-made slush machines have been given a premium facelift in recent times, with foodie kitchen brand Ninja launching their Ninja SLUSHi earlier this year when it immediately sold out. It's now back in stock and comes with a free Ninja cooling bottle so you can carry your cold drinks on the move. Known for its powerful blending and ice-crushing abilities, it's a popular pick for those wanting café-style frozen drinks at home. Also on sale at Ninja, customers can find the Ninja CREAMi deluxe with a £30 discount, it's ideal for making a plethora of your family's favourite frozen treats. The Slush Puppie brand holds a special place for many, and this home version captures the same flavours and texture found at seaside arcades and cinemas. It's a fun way to cool down and adds a playful, retro touch to any gathering. Replacement syrups are also available to buy separately, with plenty of flavours to choose from. As temperatures climb, a home slushie machine is a fun and refreshing addition to any kitchen space. Shoppers have taken to the reviews to share their thoughts. One person wrote: "A lovely little addition to my bar; the kids loved it." A second comment read: "A good product, which keeps the children amused for ages." A third person shared: "Perfect gift for a 6-year-old." However, one customer noted: "Great item, but the syrups are incredibly sour. Trying to find out the right ratio." The gadget is available at Amazon now, among a host of other kitchenware deals launched of Amazon's forthcoming Prime Day event which is set to run across the retailer from July 8.

Alpkit saves Scottish bag manufacturer Trakke from closure

Trakke, which was founded by Alec Farmer in 2010 and is based in Glasgow, announced its closure in February, saying that rising costs and tax increases made operating 'untenable'. Now, Alpkit — a multi-award-winning certified B Corp and outdoor equipment brand — has taken over the company. Production is expanding with the creation of seven new jobs at Alpkit's Nottingham-based factory, while select Trakke styles will still be made in Glasgow. READ MORE: Deacon Blue founding member James Prime dies aged 64 All Trakke bags will continue to use premium Scottish fabrics, maintaining the quality customers have come to expect. The original Trakke team, including founder Farmer, has been closely involved in the transition to ensure continuity in design, values, and product integrity. 'We've long admired Trakke's commitment to heritage materials, timeless design, and sustainable production,' said David Hanney, CEO of Alpkit. 'Bringing Trakke into the Alpkit family is a natural step, as both companies are driven by purpose, not just product.' With this transition, Trakke becomes a certified B Corporation, a 1% for the Planet member, and a Living Wage Foundation employer. Since 2010, the company has manufactured all its products in Scotland. Trakke's products have also proven to resonate globally, with 50% of previous revenue generated from the US. Alpkit currently sells to 69 countries. The company said the new structure will strengthen Trakke's international presence while "maintaining its unique identity". 'As we scale production and reach, we're excited to serve customers worldwide with the same passion and quality Trakke is known for,' added Hanney.
