In the following I would like to give you a little insight, so that you in the <strong>Confusion of terms<\/strong> keep the overview. There are also differences between the individual countries. In this article I will refer to the <strong>Definition in Germany<\/strong> and the publications issued by the German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture.<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmel.de\/SharedDocs\/Downloads\/Ernaehrung\/Lebensmittelbuch\/LeitsaetzeSpeiseeis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>\"Guidelines for ice cream\"<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>(as at 29.11.2016).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to know it in detail, you can of course read the 10-page PDF document yourself. But I think my contribution is clearer. Besides, this is about <strong>ice cream marketed<\/strong>. That means the document refers to ice cream that is sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With homemade ice cream, of course, we have all the freedom we could want and what we call it doesn't really matter. But if you are looking for <strong>Packages in the supermarket<\/strong> or in the <strong>Ice cream parlor the names of the ice cream varieties<\/strong> lest, they should be read in accordance with the <strong>Rules named<\/strong> be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two main distinguishing features are the <strong>Basic ingredients<\/strong> and the <strong>Preparation method<\/strong>. Let's start with the breakdown by base ingredient.
