I FINALLY found a thermomix 21 used here in the USA. I had made a few of the sorbets with frozen fruit which were hits. Tonight, I thought, "I wonder if I can use the powdered fruit drink in my cupboard to make "sorbet." I used crystal light, a brand here in the USA which is diet and has Splenda (peach mango green tea flavor)- one individual package is supposed to flavor a 16.9 oz water bottle- sprinkled the powder over 300g ice cubes, 10 seconds on top speed, and voila, peach mango green tea sorbet!! The kids loved it and it could not be easier. You could use koolaid powder, lemonade powder, gatorade powder.

I was so excited to finally find a used TM21 being sold here, since we can't get the TM31's unless we order it from Canada. The current owner is going to demonstrate it to me on Sunday, but I am really excited about finding new recipes. I found the conversion chart here , but was hoping that someone might be able to enlighten me on the other differences between the TM21 and TM31. There is almost nothing on the internet about it! I had to struggle to find this conversion chart also.
