Frozen Custard Day

Frozen Custard Day is August 8th

Today is Frozen Custard day! What is Frozen Custard you ask? Frozen Custard is a type of ice cream that contains more egg yolks than traditional ice cream, which gives it a richer and creamier texture. It is also made with cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract.

Making Frozen Custard is a bit more involved than making regular ice cream. First, the custard base must be cooked until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Then, it is immediately cooled to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, the custard base is combined with cream and milk and churned in an ice cream maker.

There are two main types of Frozen Custard: French and German. French Frozen Custard is made with a custard base that contains egg yolks, while German Frozen Custard does not contain egg yolks.

So whether you choose to make French or German Frozen Custard, or even just regular ice cream, be sure to enjoy some today!
