Homework 2: Water: 1) Ice cream is a frozen dessert whose texture is partially determined by the size and quantity of ice crystals that form during production. You have a friend who very much enjoys making homemade ice cream. He/she is able to produce a product for immediate consumption which has a smooth, velvety texture. However, when he/she saves the leftovers by storage in the freezer (slow rate of hard freezing), the texture becomes very coarse and gritty. Your friend knows you have taken a course in Food Chemistry and asks you for an explanation why his/her hard frozen product has a much more coarse texture compared to commercial ice cream (rapid rate of hard freezing). What explanation would you provide?Explanation / Answer
