Ice Cream

Ok now, I am officially running out of ideas and am procrastinating. Bad. Very Bad. As usual, once I am running out time, I, like many others, will do the first thing in mind: PANIC! Unless, you think of a topic before hand or having one after screaming around the house think you're going to have a late assignment. This is why I usually don't procasinate. Anyways, here's this blog's topic: Ice cream.

From Wikipedia:Ice cream or ice-cream is a frozen dessert usually made from dairy products, such as milk and cream, and often combined with fruits or other ingredients and flavours. Most varieties contain sugar, although some are made with other sweeteners.In some cases, artificial flavourings and colourings are used in addition to (or in replacement of) the natural ingredients. This mixture is stirred slowly while cooling to prevent large ice crystals from forming; the result is a smoothly textured ice cream.The meaning of the term ice cream varies from one country to another. Terms like frozen custard,frozen yogurt, sorbert, gelato, and others are used to distinguish different varieties and styles.

In most cases, people LOVE ice cream.They are great to eat especially during the summer and can by found almost everywhere in different variations. That's the great thing about ice cream. There's so many flavors to choose from, you'll end up having more than one favorite! I think it's interesting how there are different desserts that are topped, decorated, or contains ice cream. For example, if there are any a la mode after a desert, it means there's ice cream being topped off. Another dessert being what is now popular, ice cream cakes. This genius (in my opinion) thought of combining cakes AND ice cream! Everyone loves cakes and ice cream so put them together! Another popular desert is ice cream mochi. In case if no one knows what that is, ice cream is..well ice cream(or you can define it has how Wikipedia did) and mochi is a Japanese rice cake made of glutinous rice pounded into paste and molded into shape. So basically, ice cream is used for the mochi filling and once its cold, its a great desert to eat! Personally, I think this is a pretty interesting desert: Ice cream tempura. Once again, coming from Wikipedia, Ice cream tempura is commonly made by taking a scoop of ice cream frozen well below the temperature at which ice cream is generally kept, possibly coating it in raw egg, rolling it in cornflakes or cookie crumbs, and briefly deep frying it. The extremely low temperature of the ice cream prevents it from melting while being fried. Honestly, FRIED ice cream? I didn't believe it until I see it, which I did about 10 minutes later. I was amazed; it tasted so good, I expected the ice cream will be all soft and melting when in fact, it was still frozen solid. Anyways, I think that's all the desserts I can think of for now... Until then, I'm off to get some mochi ice cream.
