Other flavors such as strawberries and chocolate, many manufacturers add only strawberry flavor or cocoa butter, not natural strawberries and pure chocolate.the addition of trans fatty acids toice creams is a cause for doubt consumers are more attuned by the variety of complex ingredients and sweeteners added to ice creams and ice creams, and many of the products based on vegetable oils and fats, whether they contain trans fatty acids, because manufacturers do not label people doubt.nestle green tea flavor mousse ice cream ingredients have nearly

    ?
    For example, on the packaging of an ice cream product, the following raw materials are marked: phospholipids, polyglyceride castor esters, castor sugar, whole milk powder, fructose syrup, maltodextrin, lactic acid, sodium lactic acid, sodium methyl cellulose, jaundol Gum, monocalate glycerides, guar gum, cara gum, citric acid, sodium citrate, edible flavor

Acids: Lactic acid, sodium lactate, citric acid, sodium citrate. Sweeteners: Sweeteners, combined with fructose syrup and sugar that are not additives, can reduce the cost of flavor while ensuring sweetness: yogurt flavor and blueberry flavor, are compound flavors, which are estimated to be mixed with dozens of compounds to simulate realistic aromas. Shaping: This is the great effect of thickeners, they are the

    . There are four thickeners
    -
    sodium methyl cellulose, jaundol, guar gum and cara gum. Thickener can improve the state of ice crystal formation, so that ice cream can easily bite, not melt easily, but not become large ice, will not come out on the water.

    (
    clear whole milk fat, combined whole milk fat

    Frozen Beverage Classification and found that the total solids, proteins and fats of ice cream are usually higher than ice creams, mainly due to the use of milk, cream or vegetable fats.experts point out that milk ice cream is based on drinking water, milk, cream, sugar and other main ingredients, and fat ice cream to water, vegetable oil or margarine as the main ingredient, generally speaking, the main ingredient for milk and natural cream products in taste and health is better than the use of vegetable oil or margarine products.Learn to distinguish between sweet ingredients Cold drinks are sweet in addition to white sugar and corn syrup, glucose syrup, as well as fructose syrup, saccharin, sugar, as well as sugar alcohols and honey, in the face of so many sweet sources, consumers have to learn to distinguish between the nutrition and good or bad of various sweeteners.for example, white sugar has higher calories, honey, sugar alcohols are healthier, while fructose syrup, corn syrup and glucose syrup are more nutritious, sweets, although the lowest calories, but no nutrition.choose more easily preserved varietiesmost of Yili and Mengniu's ice cream and ice cream products have a shelf life of
