How to store ice cream

Leave a comment

There are four things to keep in mind when storing ice cream:

  1. Keep the air out
    You can use an airtight container.
  2. Prevent Flavors from Mixing
    The smells of food in your freezer can mix with your ice cream and change the flavor. Unless you have a separate chest freezer, you will need to do something to keep those flavors out of your ice cream.
  3. Check the temperature of your freezer
    You can store ice cream on the shelves of the freezer, not in the door.Ice cream is best stored at -11°F (-24°C).
  4. Keep the temperature consistent
    Ice cream does not like changes in temperature.So,whether you are buying ice cream from the ice cream store or making it with an ice cream machine,you should avoid thawing and refreezing! Large ice crystals will form and the smooth, creamy texture will be destroyed.

To serve ice cream more easily, transfer the container from the freezer to the fridge ten to twenty minutes before serving.

IML Brief Introduction

Leave a comment

What’s IML?The IML, which has been finished printing and die cutting, is generally placed inside the open mold by Robot Arm. Then the label is fused into the surface of the plastic products, in the process of the product forming. The combination between the label & the plastic product is natural & it completely becomes a part of the plastic product & has a significantly better appearance, which appears “no label look” effect.
