Would anyone like some ice cream?

[Currently Enty was doing something with one of her heavier, bomber aircraft. Loading what looked like milk and other items into a compartment onto... one of the wings!?

Anyway, she looked both busy, and giddy at the same time.]

What kind of ice cream maker is that?

[ He is before airplanes existed. He is trying to figure out if the entire machine is involved ]

[ Sherlock realizes he may have asked the wrong question because the answer didn't exactly clarify anything for him. He'll ask something else instead. ]

Do you have a reason for creating such a large amount of ice cream?

How much for a scoop and what flavor?

[ Sherlock is someone who regularly forgets to eat or purposely forgoes eating, so him actually showing interest is a rarity. ]

If I could obtain the ingredients, do you think you could manage rosewater, orange blossom, or some citrus flavor?

[ He could visit the market to see if anything might work. Perhaps some honey to drizzle on the ice cream as well. (He's also going to give something for the ice cream itself) ]

[ Yes, that would be an issue. ]

Would it not be possible to take a smaller portion of unflavored ice cream to mix in these flavors? It would allow you to experiment with more than just vanilla and chocolate.

[ Vanilla is considered unflavored? The spice made from an orchid? ]

I think the vanilla would go well with them.

I should be able to get the ingredients with a trip to the market, and I'll purchase some extra ingredients for anyone else who'd like to try those flavors.

There is no need for that. I am familiar with the process. Salt, ice, and agitating the contents to make the cream freeze quicker.

[ In another world and time, an older Holmes had a mystery involving a hand cranked ice cream churn. ]

[ Especially when it involved creating a murder weapon! ]

I shall go obtain the additional ingredients then.

[ The ice cream maker churn made an ice dagger which was used to kill a man! ]

I will.

[ And then later he will return with some ingredients to make some very Victorian flavored ice cream. ]
