If the ice cream is too soft to spread, put it in the freezer for 15 minutes and try again. Once you've got an even layer, place the bowl in the freezer for 2 hours until thoroughly frozen.
• Spread the diced mango all over the macaroon-studded ice cream or sorbet and freeze for 30 minutes. Fill it with the mango sorbet, smoothing the top, and freeze for 2 hours.
