Summary based on the book description on Amazon.
What should I know about ice cream and sugar?
Home-made ice creams give you control over what goes in, and that includes the sugar. The FDA page on added sugars on the Nutrition Facts label explains that the label lists added sugars, so comparing with a shop-bought tub is straightforward. Sweet treats are enjoyable, and a portion size you can live with is a sensible approach.
The Harvard page on added sugar says sugary foods are best eaten sparingly. Frozen fruit and nuts give creaminess with less added sweetener than a standard recipe.
For storage, the USDA FSIS freezing guide says to freeze food quickly, because slow freezing makes large ice crystals. Store in an airtight container, and expect texture changes after a few weeks.
Blenders can be difficult to clean around the blade, so wash it promptly. People with nut allergies should avoid cross-contact with nut-based bases.
