 To be honest though, I have never tried to make what your trying to make in it although I have made smoothies with ice in it a handful of times with good results.

 Yah I think the issue lies with the ingredients used and not the blender itself.
And yes the Osters are reviewed as the best blenders under $50.00

 Yah I saw those recommended. I think if the Jello pudding mix doesn't solve my issue I may go that route!
