ICE-CREAM AND ICE-CREAM SUBSTITUTES. 



1. Ice-cream is a frozen product made from cream and sugar, with 

 or without a natural flavoring, and contains not less than fourteen 

 ( 14) per cent of milk fat. 



2. Fruit ice-cream is a frozen product made from cream, sugar, 

 and sound, clean, mature fruits, and contains not less than twelve 

 (12) per cent of milk fat. 



3. Nut ice-cream is a frozen product made from cream, sugar, and 

 sound, nonrancid nuts, and contains not less than twelve (12) per 

 cent of milk fat. 



Many products, such as eggs, gelatine, etc., are used in the manufac- 

 ture of so-called ice-cream, which is often . delicious, but is not ice- 

 cream. Frozen custard, when properly made, is delicious; but if 

 sold as ice-cream it would be a deception and, therefore, a violation 

 of the Food Law. 



The sale of a product as ice-cream containing gelatine, eggs, gum 

 tragacanth or other vegetable gum, or the sale of a product as ice- 

 cream which contains less than the required per cent of milk fat will 

 not be contested, provided the same is labeled and sold as imitation
