STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM. I gallon cream, 2^ lbs. sugar, 4 quarts berries. Prepare and freeze the cream with half of the sugar, same as the Philadelphia Ice Cream No. 709. Crush the berries, rub through strainer or sieve, and mix with the rest of the sugar. When the cream is nearly frozen, add the berries, mix in well with the spatula and let ripen for one hour. Another way, is to take from the standard cream No. 714, or any other plain creams which contain the usual amount of sugar, and add sweetened and crushed fruit, and some coloring, if required. Pack away and let ripen for one hour. Another way, is to mix even parts of frozen Fruit Ice and Ice Cream, add coloring and more flavor and use. Other Ice Creams with fruit may be made in the manner as given above; adding to each gallon, of French, plain or Philadelphia Ice Cream two quarts of fresh or preserved sweetened fruit juice or pulp; work well in the frozen cream, and let ripen.
