What are the ingredients in sherbet and ice cream?

Answer:

Answer

HI Bre,

The ingredients for ice cream are milk, sugar, cream, air, and some fruit flavoring.

A good recipe for sherbet is:

1/2 teaspoon of citric acid

1/4 teaspoon of bicarbonate soda

1-2 spoons of icing sugar

4 lucazade tablets

actually, they're probably asking about Sherbet the frozen dessert, the American name for what can be anything from a fruit/sugar/water/eggwhite mixture (more a sorbet) to a gelato-esque fruit/sugar/milk product. Both are frozen in an air-incorporation method similar to Ice-Cream/Gelato, but are usually fruit flavored, often tart (citrus flavours abound, with many recipes also including lemon juice) and not as thick or milky/creamy as an ice cream or a gelato.
