  2. Americans claim to have invented ice cream, but no one is sure. Folklure says Dolly Madison first created it to serve at the White House. • Historically, there is an indication that snow and cream flavored with honey was a treat of the Roman Empire.

  3. Ice Cream is also popular in Italy. They have a variety of types. • Gelati-Italian ice cream • Spumoni- contains fruit, nuts, and candy; strawberry, vanilla & pistachio • Neapolitan- 3 flavors of ice cream arranged in layers; usually vanilla, chocolate, & strawberry

  4. Info • 14.5 gallons of ice cream are consumed per year per person in the U.S. • There is no grading of ice cream, however there are some federal regulations regarding milk fat content.

  5. 2 Types • Home made- ice cream made from a mixture that may or may not be cooked, before freezing. It the mixture contains egg it should be cooked before freezing. • Commercial- ice cream produced in a factory, using large-scale equipment and processes. • Stabilizers keep ice crystals small so not grainy

  6. Types • Regular Ice Cream- made from milk, sugar, flavoring, and stabilizers; needs 8-10 % milk fat • Premium Ice Cream- same ingredients, but 20% milk more fat; richer in taste and texture • Ice Milk -frozen firm milk, sugar, flavoring, and stabilizers; 2-7% milk fat; more sugar and equal calories due to sugar, but cost less

  7. continued • Mellorine/toffuti- uses vegetable or other fat as part of milk fat • Frozen Custard- ice cream with egg yolk added for richness • Frozen Yogurt- low fat, low calorie; sweetened and flavored yogurt is frozen and served like ice cream • Fruit Sherbet- milk, sugar or fruit juice, stabilizer, and egg white; 1-2 % milk fat

  8. Other info • There are now low-fat and no fat ice creams as well as no/low sugar low carb. • Storage – store air tight or in a freezer bag to prevent absorbing odors; keeps up to 2 months • Nutrition -½ c. ice cream =135 calories ½ c. hard ice milk = 90 calories ½ c. soft ice milk = 110 calories

  9. Principles • Must be stirred while freezing so the formation of ice crystals stay small and keep a creamy taste. • Freezing occurs by the withdrawal of heat. • Overrun or swell- beating of air into mixture- needs 40-50% air • Body- firmness or resistance to rapid melting. Homemade ice cream has more body & will melt faster • Texture – firmness of particles, smoothness, & lightness; size & distribution of ice crystals impt.
