Meanwhile, ice cream was known 5, 000 years ago in China. The then aristocrats indulged in ice cream, consisting of pieces of ice and snow. They added lemon and other fruits, berries, which were a natural flavor. In Europe, the delicacy of aristocrats came in the 16th century with the help of Marco Polo, who brought ice cream from a trip.
From this moment begins the entry of ice cream in people's lives. At first it was available only to aristocrats, much later - and commoners tasted it. The main thing is that the European confectioners constantly improved the ice cream recipe, and also expanded the list of flavoring additives. For example, Italians introduced nuts and cookies into ice cream, and Austrians introduced coffee glasse.
Later, Americans patented machines for the production of ice cream, and it became available to almost everyone. There were also refrigerators for storing the produced goodies, which allowed him to remain fit for a longer time.
The prototype of the ice cream familiar to the current sweet tooth appeared in the 1930s, when the dairy product acquired a thicker consistency. Ice cream is not only tasty, but also a useful product that enriches the body with calcium better than other dairy products, so enjoy your health.
