white in home-made ices seems to improve the texture in some instances, but in others to have little effect. When the hot sirup is poured over the beaten egg white the results obtained are as good as when the beaten egg white is added during the freezing process. The sherbets in which milk and fruit juices are combined give delightful- flavored products for home freezing. Classification of Ice Creams Various classifications of frozen products have been proposed. Sommer gives the following classification of ice cream and related frozen products : 1. Plain Ice Cream 6. Parfait or New York Ice Cream 2. Nut Ice Cream 7. Puddings 3. Fruit Ice Cream 8. Custards 4. Bisque Ice Cream 9. Ices 5. iVIousse 10. Sherbets Sommer stresses that classification is based on composition rather than ingredients used. Plain or Philadelphia ice cream has ingredients and composition as previously given for commercial ice cream. It may be flavored with a variety of flavors, such as vanilla, chocolate, maple. Nut or fruit ice creams are plain ice cream with nuts or fruit added. Bisque is made from a plain cream basis with such additions as maca- roons, grape nuts, dried and broken sponge cake, or marshmallows. A mousse has a whipped cream base. Parfait, or New York ice cream, is made from the same ingredients as plain cream except the amount of egg used is sufficient to produce a dis- tinctly yellow color. In some states the amount of egg yolk is specified. Puddings differ from fruit ice cream in containing a mixture of fruits and to justify the name pudding should have eggs in amounts similar to New York ice cream. Ices are made from fruit juices diluted with water and sweetened. Sherbets are made from the same ingredients as ices with the exception that milk, cream, or ice cream is used in place of part or all of the water to dilute the fruit juices.
