Many believe Dolly ‘Madison, who was such a charming American First Lady, served the first ice cream in the world at one of her famous dinners. Others claim that an inspired Negro chef served frozen custards to his patrons even before the sparkling Madam Madison delighted her guests. Most: people lean to the Dolly Madison theory.

If you freeze ice cream with a crank freezer you never have difficulty about texture. but when you use: a vacuum pack method or the mechanical refrigérator. you must be very careful about the amount of sugar and the ‘denseness of the liquid. Pure cream makes a smooth texture but produces too rich a dessert for everyday use. The ice cream powders take care di this problem and. produce a frozen cream of deliciously smooth texture and delectable flavor. «One of the best combinations of flavors is a mint ice cream or rich parfait with chocolate sauce... A dessert of this kind enables you to start your meal with'a refreshing fruit cup or to serve a fruit salad.
