History of ice cream Ice cream is very popular all around the world. The main ingredients are milk, cream, sugar and flavoring (in this case chocolate). It is said that it was first invented in China around 2000BC.In the 17th and 18th century it was brought to other places around the world. The Emperor of Rome, Nero made an ice cream out of snow, nectar, fruit pulp and honey. The first ice cream parlor in America opened in New York City in 1776. Around 1926, the first commercially successful continuous process freezer for ice cream was invented by Clarence Vogt. How ice cream is made Early production methods consisted of placing the ingredients in a metal container, surrounded by a freezing mixture of ice and coarse salt, and mixing them until smooth. In modern plants the basic ingredients, plus gelatin, used as a stabilizer to give the product a smooth consistency, are poured into a tank, where they are mixed and pasteurized. The mixture is then homogenized to break up particles of butterfat, cooled, piped to a freezing tank, and beaten until smooth; at this stage flavors are sometimes added. The ice cream emerges from the freezing tank partially frozen and is packed into containers that are stored in a refrigerated room until hard then shipped off. (MSN Encarta)
