ice cream

Enlarge picture
An ice-cream factory in which tubs are being filled with soft ice cream. This kind of ice cream is more suited to a freezer display-cabinet or to retail by a mobile ice-cream vehicle. Historically, it is also surprisingly close in form and texture to the ice creams originally made.

Rich, creamy, frozen confectionery, made commercially from the early 20th century from various milk products, sugar, and fruit and nut flavourings, usually with additives to improve keeping qualities and ease of serving. Sherbet is a frozen dessert of watered fruit juice, egg white, and sugar, like an ice, but with gelatin and milk added.
