The Chilling Chronicles of Ice Cream, presented by John Cilio via Zoom Online
Have you ever wondered how that delightful mix of dairy products, sweeteners, and cold ingredients comes together to create the ice cream we all love? What makes some brands stand out with their rich flavors, while others leave you wanting more? Do you know the difference between Philadelphia and French-style ice cream and why they taste so different?
Join us for an engaging discussion on the history of one of America's favorite treats—ice cream! This talk will explore how ice cream was discovered and made its way to America. We will highlight some evolved variations, such as sorbet, frozen yogurt, gelato, and soft-serve, all stemming from basic frozen dairy and now non-dairy products. We'll also touch on beloved classics like sundaes and milkshakes, highlighting notable ice cream makers and their innovations.
To wrap up this 50-minute presentation, we will showcase some of Connecticut's most popular ice creams, as voted on by various sources. Don't miss this opportunity to indulge in the fascinating world of ice cream!
