Ice cream is so much more than a delectable delight. It's a complex matrix of crystals, bubbles and globules that wants to fall completely apart. Fortunately, the delicate structure of ice cream is held together by a combination of chemical reinforcements and top-of-the-line freezing technology. This allows the perfect mix to be delivered to your tongue where the chemicals explode in a fantastic release of flavour and texture. The technology of ice cream production is explored, both small batch and large scale.
