Ice cream or ice-cream (originally iced cream) is a frozen dessert made from
dairy products, such as
cream (or substituted ingredients), combined with
flavorings and
sweeteners, such as sugar. This mixture is stirred slowly while cooling to prevent large
ice crystals from forming, which results in a smoothly-textured ice cream. Although the term "ice cream" is sometimes used to mean frozen desserts and snacks in general, it is usually reserved for frozen desserts and snacks made with a high percentage of
milk fat.
Frozen custard,
frozen yogurt,
sorbet,
gelato, and other similar products are sometimes also called ice cream. Governments often regulate the use of these terms based on quantities of ingredients. Ice cream is generally served as a chilled product. It may also be found in dishes where the coldness of the ice cream is used as a temperature contrast, for example, as a topping on warm desserts, or even in
fried ice cream. Some commercial institutions such as
creameries specialize in serving ice cream and products that are related.
