Season of Ice Cream 2023

Summer- Season of Ice Cream is finally here.

The history of Ice Cream dates back to 500 BC, to the Persians. Who knew, a desert surrounded place will find a secret recipe that will heal/touch/break so many hearts! What's done is done. It is our time and it is munch time.

India has access to a lot of Ice Cream companies and brands. e.g. Amul, Kwality Walls, Mother's Diary, Havmor(1944), Vadilal(1907), Cream Bell, Baskin Robbins, Cream and Fudge, Dinshaw's(1932), NIC, Narula, Naturals etc.

Controversy

There has been an ongoing controversy between Frozen Desserts and milk based ice cream. I have just one question

Is 16/17gm of added sugar/ 100ml justified? In case of Kawlity Wall's trixy there is 20.9 gm of added sugar Trixy.

• The AHA suggests a stricter added-sugar limit of no more than 100 calories per day (about 6 teaspoons or 24 grams) for most adult women and no more than 150 calories per day (about 9 teaspoons or 36 grams of sugar) for most men.

So, let's not go into that debate of who does it better! In my opinion everything is ok if consumed in moderation. Even fruit juice is unhealthy because it lacks fiber and contains more fruit than one should consume hence it is rich in sugar content.

Ice Cream Alternatives

• Sorbet
• Chilled Fruit
• Chilled Custard
• Chilled Porridge 
• Ice Lolly

 Infact as per me anything frozen, sweet thing available is ice cream.
