FSSAI planning new quality
self-regulatory framework standards for Ice Creams for Food Products;
F
SSAI considering a plan to make it mandatory for manufacturers to print expiry dates on packs, said a top official of the apex regulator. Part of a stricter regime on food safety in the wake of the ban on Maggi noodles by the FSSAI in June, companies currently suggest a 'best before' date. That's not enough, said the official, who didn't want to be named. He also called on the industry and lobby groups that represent companies to move toward a selfregulatory framework similar to the one that the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India has for its profession. There would then be no need for the FSSAI to intervene to the current extent, he said. The FSSAI has come under attack from the government and the industry for choking the
sector. "The 'best before' date on the label indicates diminished nutritive value of the food product, which is still safe for consumption. However, for how long will it stay safe to consume after the 'best-before date' is not known," the official said. "By clearly stating the expiry date on the label, the safety of the consumer will be taken care of as the 'best before' date will always precede the expiry date. The 'best before' date can then be made optional." Shelf life refers to the duration for which a product and its ingredients are safe for consumption under varying temperature and humidity conditions over a period of time. At the time of development, shelf-life stability is determined through a real-time study or an accelerated process.

he FSSAI is working on comprehensive norms for milk and milk products which will now also include ice cream and flavoured milk. The FSSAI is working on comprehensive norms for milk and milk products which will now also include ice cream and flavoured milk. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) is planning to set new quality standards for ice cream and flavoured milk besides tightening safety norms for milk and other dairy products. The proposal comes after ban on import of Chinese milk and milk products last month due to presence of melamine for one year till June 2016 following a recommendation from the FSSAI. The FSSAI has norms for milk, paneer, ghee and butter among others. "In the latest proposal, the regulator is working on setting more specific and stringent standards for fat content in milk. ... there is need to further broaden the quality standards for milk and its products. We are working on that and it is likely that in next one month will come up with draft of these standards," a source said. The authority is working on comprehensive norms for milk and milk products which will now also include

ice cream and flavoured milk, among others, the source added. Currently, the FSSAI has ceiling on presence of insecticides and metal contaminants in milk and milk products. Last month, the regulator had imposed limits for melamine in domestic milk products. Melamine is used in plastic and fertiliser industry. The regulator has stepped surveillance on processed food items after the Maggi controversy. It is reviewing safety standards and holding several consultations with stakeholders to strengthen it. It had also asked states to increase surveillance and act against entities selling contaminated packaged drinking water as well as adulterated milk and edible oils. Earlier this year, in a meeting with state food safety commissioners, the FSSAI chief executive officer had shared concerns raised by the Parliamentary Panel on Consumer Affairs regarding widespread incidences of milk adulteration. The food safety watchdog has also formed an 11-member panel for regulating salt, sugar and fat in food products sold or served at eating joints in the country.

IDFA Kicks Off National Ice Cream Month with Instagram Contest In addition, ice cream companies are encouraged to share how they are celebrating National Ice Cream Month by posting on the IDFA Facebook page or tweeting @dairyidfa using the hashtag #IceCreamMonth. IDFA will also be posting news releases and announcements from member companies on the IDFA website.
I
n 1984, US President Ronald Reagan designated July as National Ice Cream Month and the third Sunday of the month as National Ice Cream Day (July 19 this year). He recognized ice cream as a fun and nutritious food that is enjoyed by over 90 percent of the nation's population. In his proclamation, President Reagan called for all people of the United States to observe these events with "appropriate ceremonies and activities.” Ice Cream Photo Contest IDFA’s celebration began with the annual ice cream photo contest on Instagram. People following IDFA on Instagram (@ dairyidfa) are invited to share photos that show how they are celebrating National Ice Cream Month. Entries should include the hashtag #IceCreamMonth. Each Friday in July, the person with the photo that receives the most “likes” will receive free ice cream.
Capitol Hill Ice Cream Party IDFA began its summer celebration of ice cream in June at the 33rd Annual Capitol Hill Ice Cream Party in Upper Senate Park. More than 2,000 gallons of ice cream and frozen yogurt were available in more than 50 flavors, along with root beer floats, another summertime favorite. IDFA extends a special thanks to two longtime contributors: Hershey Creamery Company provided the ice cream coolers and Jack & Jill Ice Cream Company provided the trucks and ice cream storage that made the party a huge success. Without their support, IDFA wouldn’t be able to put on such a “cool” event.
IDFA is asking member ice cream companies to invite their fans and followers to participate in the contest.

What’s the healthiest ice-cream? The difference between five different kinds of Ice-Cream varieties.
D
uring summer, cold desserts seem like a delicious option. There are many options when it comes to frozen dairy (and none dairy) desserts. Ice-cream, soft serve ice-cream, frozen yogurt, gelato and sorbet – what is the difference between all of them? Any of these sweet treats can be incorporated into a healthy,
well-balanced diet. Read the Nutrition Facts label to determine the nutrition information and serving size. Only consume the recommended portion size; many people eat more calories than recommenced when it comes to ice-cream type desserts because the packaging containers contain multiple servings.
Many frozen yogurt shops offer a variety of crushed candies to add on top, which adds more fat and calories than the frozen yogurt by itself. When toppings are available to add, choose fruit and nuts to add flavor without adding extra empty calories. Michigan State University Extension lists five varieties of ice-cream and their base:
some sort of dairy product (milk solids and/or milk fat) and is lower in fat and calories because milk is used instead of cream.
1. Ice-cream is made from cream, sugar and flavorings – other variations may include sweeteners, non-dairy milk products and skim milk.
5. Sorbet is non-dairy and is made from fruit puree or fruit juice, sugar and flavorings. Usually sorbet contains very little to no fat, but it is high in sugar.
2. Soft serve icecream is a result of incorporating air into the ice cream during the freezing process. Soft serve also usually contains less milk fat than regular ice-cream. 3. Frozen yogurt, or “froyo” is usually not made from 100 percent yogurt. It does always contain
4. Gelato is made from cream and sugar, but contains less butterfat and less sugar than regular ice-cream.
Based on the core ingredients listed, you can decide for yourself which ice-cream option is the best for you. In addition, use the National Nutrient Database to compare the nutrition of different types of treats as well as other foods.

erché No, Florence, Italy Nigella Lawson is said to be a fan of Perché No, a gelateria in Florence that has been making traditional Italian ice cream since 1939. Every morning the team makes a huge batch of fresh ice cream in fabulous flavours such as milk with honey and sesame seeds, coffee crunch and lavender. Legend has it that this was the very first ice cream parlour to install a glass display case to show off their flavours. Chinatown Ice Cream Factory, New York, US
The Chinatown Ice Cream Factory is a Big Apple institution. Crowded and bright, it offers a huge range of frozen treats, many with an Eastern slant, such as lychee sorbet or red bean ice cream. If you're really impressed, you can even buy a T-shirt to take away with you. Morelli's, Broadstairs, UK Take a step back in time at Morelli's, an oldfashioned ice cream parlour at the seaside that
stock up before you go home. Fatamorgana, Rome, Italy When it comes to choosing an ice cream parlour in Rome, you're spoilt for choice - but many people sing the praises of Gelateria Fatamorgana, which serves scrumptious scoops of homemade ice cream
in a number of locations throughout the city. There are no chemical additives or artificial flavours, and there's even lactose-free treats available. Anyone
for a scoop of Turkish pistachio? Fenocchio, Nice, France Fenocchio is a family-owned parlour in Nice's old town which was founded in the 1960s and has a cult following among locals. There are nearly 100 flavours on offer, ranging from the classics to quirky inventions such as tomato basil and cactus.
was set up by an Italian immigrants in 1932. There is a juke box, soda fountain and booths aplenty, while typical ice cream flavours include lime and mint or coffee with Nutella. If you don't live in the UK, don't fret - there are now 14 other Morelli's stores around the world, as far afield as Bahrain and Texas. Anna Durkes, Berlin, Germany Anna Durkes is a tiny ice-cream-parlour-cumcoffee-house in Berlin, ran by an Italian couple, that is much-loved by the city's residents. Don't miss the 'Brioche con Gelato' - two slices of fluffy brioche, filled with fresh frozen goodness. The cafe also sells a wide range of Italian treats, so
Australia Families love this ice cream parlour Down Under,
not just for the 60 flavours of dairy delicousness (all made with local milk), but because there's also kids' activities such as mini golf. Stay long enough, and we reckon you can probably justify a second portion. Berthillon, Paris, France
Ice cream doesn't come much more stylish than at Berthillon, the legendary Parisian parlour and tearoom on Île Saint-Louis that attracts huge queues in summer. It's also worth a visit in winter
though - the chocolate ‘affogato’ ( vanilla icecream, topped with hot chocolate and praline cream) is heaven.
Joy, New Zealand An ice cream parlour with a conscience, Joy is a social enterprise which employs people struggling to find a job. You can find Joy kiosks or 'pods' each operated by what Joy calls a a 'remarkable unemployee' - all around the country, offering Italian-style ice cream in flavours such as rum and coconut, wild berry and 'super chocolate'.
Max & Mina's, New York, US You won't find wackier or wilder ice cream flavours than at this New York store, which was set up by brothers Bruce and Mark Becker in 1997. The siblings have used everything from horseradish to beer, pizza and smoked salmon to flavour their confections, and encourage customers to help them brainstorm future ideas. Gelupo, London, UK
A little bit of Italy in the heart of Soho, Gelupo is a pretty blue-and-white tiled gelateria that is an offshoot of the Italian restaurant Bocca di Lupo. Flavours change regaulrly with the seasons, but popular options in the past have included rhubarb crumble and amaretti with apricot.

savE® Advanced Phase Change Materials (PCM) technology for protecting ice-creams in power deficit regions
I
t is a known fact that Ice-cream requires the most fool proof cold chain management compared to any other product. Once melted it is impossible to regain the taste, texture and quality. Hence, it makes a lot of difference in the way in which ice-creams are produced, shipped and stored. Out of the estimated 4000 Crore ice-cream market, the majority of the sale comes from tier 1 cities as companies find it difficult to reach the rural areas due to lack of infrastructure and unavailability of power. This article introduces phase change materials, an innovative technology which addresses this challenge thereby increasing the opportunity to make ice-creams accessible at the best quality to the rural segment. Phase Change Materials (PCM) Phase Change Materials (PCM) fall under the sub category of energy exchanging smart materials. Energy exchanging smart materials is defined as those materials that are able to store latent and sensible energy in the form of light, heat, electricity or hydrogen and exhibit reversibility. A PCM has the ability to store and release large amounts of heat/ energy while maintaining a constant temperature unlike conventional solutions as shown in the figure 1 below. PCM’s have tremendous potential to fulfill the growing need of energy for cooling and heating applications across various industries. It finds its application globally in diverse sectors
like cold chain, HVAC, refrigeration, automobile air-conditioning, apparels, waste heat recovery, consumer goods and more; wherever there is a need for thermal energy storage. Difference between conventional Eutectic Mixtures A generic term “eutectics” are also used for referring any mixture of chemical compounds or elements that have a single chemical composition that solidifies at a lower temperature than any other composition made up of the same ingredients. This composition is known as the eutectic composition and the temperature at which it solidifies is known as the eutectic temperature. Whether it is salt water solution, glycol solution or PCMs all are referred to as eutectics; hence there is a need to understand the difference. A eutectic solution to be qualified as a phase change material for the purpose of storage of thermal energy there are some important factors to be considered. Without the consideration of these factors a eutectic solution would find its application as an anti-freeze solution or simply as a sensible heat storage medium at various temperatures. PCMs are engineered to change their phase (solid to liquid or vice versa) at a specific temperature and one should look at the following three factors to qualify a PCM;
1) High thermal storage capacity in the form of latent heat (200KJ/Kg or above) 2) Constant temperature maintenance during the release of stored energy. 3) Guaranteed repeatability in performance for more than 3000 times. The benefits of the above features are; • Precise temperature control allowing not more than +/- 1°C of error. • Longer duration of retention period – upto 18 hours due to high latent heat. • Reduction in the overall weight of the freezer due to high energy storage to weight ratio of the PCMs. Performance of PCM in commercial freezers or coolers Freezers for ice-creams are designed to maintain a temperature between – 18°C to -23°C while beverages are maintained between 2°C to 8°C in a cooler. The PCM chosen for both of these applications are different due to the different temperature requirements. Shown below in figure 2 is an illustration of PCM integration within the walls of the ice-cream freezer. The selected PCM gets charged passively when the power is available within 9 -10 hours. The selection of the PCM is important as one of the critical factor is the minimum temperature that
Figure 3
the refrigeration unit can offer to ensure charging is completely done. Once fully charged the PCM is in ready state to release back the energy when there is a power or equipment failure. The figure 3 shows the graph of the temperature inside an empty freezer compartment monitored sensors at various different locations. This freezer is designed to maintain a temperature of -18°C to -19°C for a minimum of 16 hours subjected to an ambient of 40°C and several opening and closing of the lid. About Pluss Polymers Pvt.

Bishnupada Sethi, chairman and managing director of Omfed, said it has already held discussions with top officials of the Gujarat-based milk major.
Omfed's milk procurement from farmers has touched six lakh litres per day against an average procurement during 2014-15 of 4.45 lakh litres. It is now finding it very difficult to dispose off surplus milk, he said.
"Omfed will soon sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Amul, which has a rich global experience in this field," Sethi told IANS. The quantity of milk received at Omfed Plants has gone up and the surplus milk needs to be despatched to other states. So, Amul has agreed to receive Omfed Milk at its plant in Kolkata, he said. Amul has assured to help Omfed in improving quality standards during procurement and processing, quality control and marketing its
"Amul will help Omfed in doubling the ice cream manufacturing capacity at Bhubaneswar dairy by sharing its expertise," he said.
Omfed is planning to expand its capacity and a new plant will be set up soon with the funding support of NABARD under Rural Infrastructure Development Fund. At present, milk is being sold by Omfed through 4,500 outlets across the state including 750 retail points in the capital city.

10 points to consider when formulating
with Ice Cream inclusions
F
By Tharp & Young
ormulating with inclusions requires management of free-water mobility, temperature, freezing points, osmotic pressure differences and other factors for both frozen dessert and each inclusion. The following considerations apply. 1. Compositional compatibility The ice cream composition must be compatible with any added colorant or liquid flavor (that is, adequate sweetness, color, body and texture) and, at the same time, with each added inclusion. 2. Amount/type of inclusions Use rates of 10% for particulates and 15% for syrups, based on the weight of the frozen dessert are typical. Thus, it is possible to have up to 50%
(two particulates and two syrups) as inclusions. That puts physical and chemical stress on an already stressed system. 3. Microbiological quality Since inclusions are added post-pasteurization, they need to be either pathogen-free or rendered pathogen-free. Methods used must not affect ease of handling or sensory properties. 4. The delicate balance It is necessary to balance freezing performance (tied to freezing point management and water mobility control), flow, handling and sensory appeal to the rigors of distribution and consumption. This means management of mix composition, freezing performance, water mobility and other factors, all of which affect both ice cream and inclusions. 5. Weight per finished gallon Inclusions are typically heavier than the frozen dessert into which they are added. That makes the final product heavier than simple straight flavored ice cream (for example, vanilla). To maintain a specified finished weight, the addition of more overrun (air) may be necessary. Adding overrun can reduce air-bubble strength and sensitize the air bubbles to physical abuse by larger particulates and actively variegated syrups. If overrun adjustment is undesirable, it may be necessary to create specific mix compositions. 6. Temperature Inclusions should be added at as low a temperature as possible to minimize localized heat shock. Inclusions also need to be injectable under conditions of use. This minimizes the
development of iciness due to melting and refreezing. As temperature decreases further, there can be shrinkage of ice cream or inclusions away from each other. This creates cracks, voids and opportunities for secondary defects. 7. Mechanical affects The ability of any given inclusion to retain its preferred physical form, shape and eating character is critical. That applies to syrups as well. In most cases, mechanical ways to deliver desirable thickness, visual appeal and flavor delivery vary from plant to plant. In any case, to provide for clear differentiation of inclusions from ice cream, syrups should be injected after addition of particulates. 8. Economics Inclusions may be more expensive than the frozen dessert into which they are added. That means, as inclusions are considered for novel features and benefits, careful assessment is necessary to insure compliance with whatever line-cost-averaging guidelines exist. This can offer positive influence on economic return within and between product lines. The opposite is possible as well. 9. Physical behavior Ultimately, the flow behavior of ice cream with inclusions added is determined
by what is necessary to allow the finished product to uniformly fill packaging or the ability to make molded, filled or extruded novelties. 10. Maintaining integrity Frozen desserts are designed to be eaten frozen. Most inclusions are not. Textural challenges may run counter to each element. That is, keeping ice cream smooth, creamy, rich, not sticky and not gummy versus maintaining the dry, crunchy, crisp, soft, thick or gooey features of any given inclusion or combination of inclusions. Notwithstanding all the above, an ice cream processor can deliver the desired sensory “promise” with proper formulation, inclusion selection, common use rates and conditions of injection.
Do more with less: consolidate your Ice Cream mixes Here’s what you need to know about consolidating mixes.
W
e are intrigued by the idea of managing costs by maximizing the utility and flexibility of one mix to play multiple “roles,” thus minimizing the total number of mixes an ice cream processor must make. Manufacturers face myriad demands related to new products, ease of manufacturing, contract manufacturing, regulatory limitations, operation flexibility and the like. They also seek to achieve “commercial parity” with targeted sensory attributes by using formulation, overrun, flavor, color, cost and resistance to heat shock. So minimizing the number of mixes creates huge operational opportunities. Take a hard look at your existing portfolio of mixes (including ingredients, compositions, whipping/ freezing performance, labeling, etc.). Are they: • Compatible with consolidation? • Flexible enough to allow for commercial parity? •Limited by other quantitative and/or qualitative factors (i.e., mix composition, functionality,
sensory appeal, and economics)? Mix parameters Many such elements can be managed by relatively objective mix parameters. Consider the most restrictive of all frozen desserts, standard full-fat ice cream. Commercial parity. How close is “close enough for all practical purposes”? Factors to match will differ company–to-company, line-by-line and flavor-byflavor. Color/flavor. Although qualitative in nature, mix differentiation can be done at the flavor tank and/or at the freezer. The more options available from any given mix, the more flexibility and consolidation of mixes that can be considered. Sweetness. This must be matched to the amount/ type of flavor and other physical parameters in the mix. Sweetness can be added at the flavor tank via added flavors, bulky flavors and liquid “bases” that provide color, flavor, water management needs, etc. If allowed and compatible with labeling considerations, a small amount of a properly balanced combination of high-intensity sweeteners could add sweetness delivered at the flavor tank. An objective evaluation of the properties of a proposed consolidation mix with regard to key elements of processing behavior and sensory properties needs to be made. Two useful tools for that evaluation include consideration of freezing
profile and water mobility in the unfrozen portion of the ice cream. Freezing profile involves the calculation of the freezing point (FP) of a composition and of the amount of water frozen at temperatures below the freezing point. This provides insight into the effect of the amount of water frozen during freezing/whipping on initial ice crystal size. Freezing profiling also allows consideration of the influence of freeze concentration, which has a direct influence on water mobility in the unfrozen portion of the product. Water Control Index (WCI) is a new approach to water behavior management. It can be used to reflect the influence of nonstabilizer ice cream components (proteins and high-molecular weight carbohydrates) on the mobility of water in the unfrozen portion of the finished ice cream. Working with the WCI The application of WCI to the process of mix consolidation represents the use of a new perspective that adds clarity to considering differences. For example, there may be concern about the lower total solids of any given mix. However, a greater WCI may compensate for that. WCI also may provide guidance to a stabilizer supplier as to the amount of any given stabilizer/emulsifier blend to use depending on functionalities necessary to bring a single mix into commercial parity with mixes it may be replacing. The table illustrates the application of these principles to consolidation of three mixes into one mix. The stabilizer/emulsifier blend applied is assumed to be the same for ingredient labeling purposes. Compositions A, B and C represent a portfolio of full-fat ice cream mixes for consolidation into a
single mix, identified as “Consolidated.” For each of the compositions, freezing point, WCI and equivalent sweetness (compared to sucrose) are shown for comparative considerations. The process of developing the consolidated product is guided by the objective of keeping the key characteristics of the single mix as close as possible to those of the other mixes. This involves application of the following criteria: • Differences in WCI within ± 5% of the target value are insignificant; • Differences in absolute equivalent sweetness in ice cream within ± 5 % of a targeted sweetness cannot be distinguished; • Differences in freezing point within ± 0.5 F can be tolerated. The existence of values outside of these ranges means you might have to change processing conditions, such as freezer draw temperature. Or, it might be necessary to investigate the marketing suitability of achieving parity by using ingredients outside the range of those used in the products being replaced. Once you achieve a sense of textural and economic commercial parity, a single mix could be further differentiated by the amount and type of flavor, color and/or overrun applied. Ultimately, qualitative assessments should include marketing suitability and factors related to sensory appeal. You also will have to look at product positioning, content claims and ingredient lists when considering approaches to consolidating mixes. You’ll have a lot to contemplate. But you’ll find a lot of opportunity, as well

ISA: The monarch of display cabinet & professional refrigeration maintain our number one position. Our products are manufactured after a lot of development and research and extensive testing.
I
SA was established in 1963 in Bastia Umbra (PG - Italy) and has since become a worldwide leader in the shop furnishings and professional refrigeration sectors. For ISA, design is about creating harmony between man and machine, between art and science, between design and technology: distinct elements, united by a single passion. The ISA product range is capable of accompanying the consumer throughout the entire day: from breakfast at the bar, to the lunch break at a grill or restaurant; from shopping at a supermarket or convenience store, to stopping for a tasty treat at a pastry shop or ice cream parlor, or even for an after dinner get-together at a local pub. This flexibility gives our customers the freedom to choose the specific products that are best suited to their establishments and to their personal tastes, in terms of size, performance and style. It’s a product range that’s capable of meeting the requirements of any type of customer worldwide, from small businesses to multinational corporations.
India is diverse and big market, how do you view this market? I have a lot of confidence in the Indian market developing to the European standards. Like we started here 8 years ago, and our very first business partners were blueStar. We also did a string of hotels like the Taj Group where we put out the gelato professional cabinets when gelato happened to be big news in India. Gelato became very popular about six to eight years ago and we sold a lot of cabinets. clubs, pubs, restaurant etc. ISA is a demand oriented company where we also produce for different countries a particular line of products that actually suits that country. For example take Unilever, they put out a lot of ice cream cabinets globally; the cabinets can be in the Caribbean or can be in India where the temperatures are high. We fulfill their need and requirement. Together with the developing department of these Major companies and our developing department we come up with the cabinets and the companies come with the branding, we end up creating a niche product.
But later on the business went down wards due to recession and now it is reaching back to the level to we are used to. I have full confidence in the Indian market that it will grow. In India as compared to Europe you do not have many ice cream manufacturing companies that deliver their ice cream all over the little places, either the company who manufactures its own ice cream opens its own outlets and at best if they have a franchise they lend them a chest freezer. So if you are manufacturing quality ice cream but by not displaying it the correct way or not offering it from a proper ice cream cabinet, you do a little bit of injustice to your business. On the hand I do
ISA has taken it upon itself to renew the concept of the electronic refrigeration ice cream cabinet, which has been on the market for over 20 years and has come to play an extremely important role in the world-famous tradition of Italian artisanal gelato-making. Satish Ruparelia, Managing Director of ISA, UK, visited Indian during Ahaar 2015 in New Delhi, shared with us the concept of display cabinet in food processing industry, especially for the bakery and ice creams. In a candid interview with our Editor, Firoz H Naqvi, Ruparelia told about the market presence of ISA in India and its future plan. Delta Nuritives is their dealers & contact in India. Company had a massive stall during Ahaar 2015 in New Delhi. Excerpts from the interview; Could you brief us about your company and what services you provide to the food industry? We are a company that manufactures equipment for display purposes which is for the front of the house operations, which can be for ice cream shops and coffee shops and we also produce refrigeration storage cabinets which could be used in the back area of restaurants and hotels. We have been established since 1963 and the company exports to nearly 74 companies. Our business is based on manufacturing for multinational buyers, like Unilever, Nestle, Movenpick etc. The phrase that we very often use in our company is that, “wherever there is food and drinks, ISA is always there’’. We are the front of the house providers, like in the patisseries shop or the ice cream where the display cabinet in the front is the most important. ISA is functional 24 hours a day; we are present in night
The company started off with manufacturing ice cream cabinets and today we are the best as far as the range of the product is concerned, especially in the gelato cabinets. We also manufacture for artisan who are basically successful because of the quality of their ice cream. With the best ice cream to serve they would want to display in the best possible way to conserve the temperature at the best possible level, because of which the taste of the ice cream is not affected, for instance if an Ice cream comes out of a chest freezer t would end up being solid as a rock, but when it comes out of a professional cabinet it would be just at the right temperature and texture and eating that ice cream would be joyful and smooth. And I am proud to say that globally we are very successful with this range of cabinets. Do you manufacture the cabinets in one location or different locations? It all manufactured in Italy at one location which is the region of Umbria near Perugia, where the company was established and till today all is operational there. But now we have contracted out to build up a brand new factory which is designed by Portia and this will be operational by 2019 and would be the state of the art factory. The success of our company is the innovation, the design and the style and this is the way we
think that in coming time the business in India will compete with the one that is in Europe. This is because people in India are now becoming aware and demand for premium quality ice cream. Ultimately there is plenty of business in India in regard to the business cabinet business. What were the challenges you faced while establishing your business here? The biggest challenge is on the side of the public who would have an ice cream but can’t differentiate whether the ice cream is from a chest freezer or a professional cabinet. The cost is the challenge too but in my point of view it is the public the poses to be the main challenge that is not demanding the quality ice cream and I am also surprised when it comes to using the word gelato, people think that it is coming from a nice looking cabinet so it’s going to be expensive. I think it is the perception which is a challenge. How is ISA’s cabinet different from the other regular cabinet we see in India at a very cost effective price? Well the difference is quite obvious, like for instance, the normal cost effective chest freezer usually offer rock solid
ice cream that is stored at – 18 degrees and you have to struggle to scoop it out and then for easier business you may bring the temperature down to – 10 or – 8 degrees. If an ice cream is stored at -16 degree small icicles are formed but if you take a professional cabinet where the temperature is -8 degrees then the ice is smooth and soft and easy to scoop. A properly made ice cream served at the right temperature is very good in texture, smoothness and quality. ISA has never compromised in products, it provides the best display cabinets for the food industry and that is why it is the number one company for display cabinet. What are your plans for the Indian market, how are going to reach out to more and more people? Our plans are to work with professional companies like Delta, who are in the ingredients business but they have the “know – how’’on how to make ice cream and they are selling a premium product in term of the ingredients. And the last thing they would want to do is to make good ice cream and not display it properly because the whole object is lost then. So we are pleased to be working with them. It is not a business of number games and if a product is sold in the correct way and in right establishment it can only bring on more products and ISA is premium quality ice cream cabinet manufacturer. We also manufacture lower range cabinets called the IZECTA-7 that are for cost effective ice cream cabinet. Apart for ice cream and bakery, what other segments can these kinds of cabinets serve in India? We already manufacture cabinets for frozen food. We manufacture cabinets for supermarkets, bakery, we also have refrigerated bar counters and we have spent a lot of resources in developing these products. When you look at global chains, they specify ISA because internationally ISA is used.Even when I walk down the five stars I can see an ISA product. Like I said I am very confident about the Indian market. The market in India 7 to 8 years ago was very hyper but as I said before we went under recession and India did not reach the point where it should have been. But with development and the land bill passed I expect all the projects to go on fast, I am pretty sure the market in India is becoming very fast. Even politically the scenario is becoming very good and India will be Europe in a matter of few years. I can see a lot of confidence in the people, in the businesses and the market. You can actually feel the self-reliance in the air.

Canada Drops Added Sugars from Proposed Changes to Nutrition Labeling
I
n regulations proposed last month, Canada aims to change a number of nutrition labeling requirements, as well as other labeling regulations, including ingredient declarations. Many proposed changes are similar to those proposed last year by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but there also are important differences from current or proposed U.S. labeling. In technical documents published last year, Health Canada, the agency responsible for helping Canadians maintain and improve their health, had explored the addition of a separate “added sugars” declaration, similar to that proposed by FDA, but this declaration was rejected in last month’s proposal. IDFA filed written comments with Canada last September, opposing any change to labeling added sugars. The new proposal now addresses sugars content of foods in two ways. In addition to labeling the grams of sugars in the food, an additional percent
Daily Value declaration would be required, with the percentage based on a Daily Value of 100 grams of sugar. Additionally, sugar ingredients would be grouped together in the ingredient list under the collective heading “sugars.” “Although it’s not known how the Canadian
decision will impact FDA’s thinking on its proposed requirement to label added sugars, we see this as a significant conclusion that should be strongly considered by U.S. regulators,” said Cary Frye, IDFA vice president for regulatory and scientific affairs. “Health Canada found the inability of analytical methods to distinguish between naturally occurring and added sugars would contribute to enforcement challenges, and cited U.S. research that shows consumers have a limited understanding of added
sugars on a food package.” Consistent Serving Sizes The proposal would also require nutrition information to be based on a consistent serving size, similar to the U.S. Reference Amount Customarily Consumed (RACC). Canada proposed a threequarter cup serving size for ice cream and frozen desserts and a per piece or unit measurement for ice cream bars, cones and sandwiches. The United States has suggested revisions to ice cream serving size on U.S. Nutrition Facts panel as well, changing from half a cup to one cup per serving. IDFA strongly opposes the proposed U.S. change, citing newer consumption data. IDFA believes revised density should be used, which would result in three-quarters of a cup as the common amount of ice cream usually consumed. Other proposed labeling changes from Health Canada include: • Addition of potassium as a mandatory nutrient; • Labeling of color additives by their common and usual name, rather than a collective name; • A footnote at the bottom of the Nutrition Facts panel would be required to help consumers understand the declared percent Daily Values: “5% or less is a little, 15% or more is a lot”; • A new health claim for fruits and vegetables; and • Formatting changes to the Nutrition Facts panel, including reordering nutrients and larger calorie information. The proposal recommends a five-year implementation date, which would help to reduce the economic burdens on food manufacturers and marketers that would be required to revise all labels on all products.

Why Scream For Gelato Instead Of Ice Cream? Here's The Scoop
H
igher butterfat content makes ice cream thick and heavy, which is why you can get a nice, round, firm scoop of ice cream, shown at left. Gelato, at right, has less cream, which gives you softer drifts. Back in the day, this saying applied to pretty much everyone: "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream." Nowadays, though, one friend is probably screaming for gelato, another for a vegan frozen dessert and yet someone else for sherbet. But it's gelato, ice cream's Italian cousin, that's keeping more customers coming back. Gelato sales rose from $11 million in 2009 to an estimated $214 million in 2014, which has kept frozen dessert sales afloat, according to the market research firm Mintel. Gelato has gained ground in part because it's novel, says Beth Bloom, an analyst at Mintel. And, because we tend to think of gelato as "this special thing made by artisans in small, premium batches," she says. But is gelato really all that different? I'll admit that whenever I take in a mouthful, I often wonder if I'm really just eating ice cream with an exotic name slapped on. Italian gelato is smoother and silkier than its American counterpart. It's also denser, but has elasticity and fluidity, says Morgan Morano, author of The Art of Gelato. They are, in fact, quite different, Morgan Morano assures me. She's the author of the new book The Art of Making Gelato, and was classically trained in Italy. The first thing you'll notice, she says, is that gelato is a lot creamier. It's smoother and silkier than its American counterpart. It's also denser, yet it has that elasticity and fluidity that you can't get with ice cream. Another difference: "the actual recipe and ingredients used," she says. Both contain cream, milk and sugar. Ice cream, though, is heavier on the cream and typically uses egg yolks to pack the mixture together. Gelato, on the other hand, has more milk than cream. And authentic gelato rarely uses egg yolks, says Morano. Usually, if they're in there, it's just for a bit of flavor. With more cream comes more butterfat. The Food and Drug Administration defines ice cream as containing no less than 10 percent fat – though Morano says most ice cream tend to be 14 to 25 percent fat. Italian gelato, though, only has about 4 to 9 percent fat. At the most basic level – the molecular level – any frozen dessert is a mix of water and fat molecules, according to a 2014 video by the American Chemical Society. These molecules form crystals as the mixture freezes. And the longer it take for ice cream to freeze, the bigger the crystal, resulting in that crunchy mouthfeel. What the butterfat does, according to the ACS video, is keep ice crystals small by preventing water molecules from clumping together to form giant crystals. It also makes the mixture thick and heavy, which is why you can get a nice, round, firm scoop of ice cream. Scoops of gelato, on the other hand, are often soft fluid drifts. But if fat is what makes the frozen treat creamy, how can gelato be creamier? "There is a lot less air churned into gelato than into American ice cream, [a process] known as overrun," Morano says. American ice cream can be up to 50 percent air. Air makes it soft and fluffy. Since gelato has less butterfat, the mixture is light to begin with. So it only needs 20 to 30 percent air as it thickens and freezes. That keeps the product dense — and therefore creamy, Morano explains. It's also why her recipes suggest using a gelato machine, which churns at a slower rate, rather than an ice cream maker.
Lower fat also means the flavors in gelato come out better, Morano argues. "Butterfat coats your palate," she says, "and if you have less of it you can taste the flavors more quickly."
It also helps that authentic Italian gelato is typically served at 7 to 12 degrees Fahrenheit, about 10 to 15 degrees warmer than ice cream. As the YouTube video explains, the cold numbs your
tongue so you don't taste as much of that sugary sweetness in ice cream. Because gelato is served warmer, you also get more of the flavor's intensity. With the trend of gelato on the rise, shops have been popping up and commercial ice cream companies like Breyers and Haagen-Daz have been quick to jump on the bandwagon. But Morano says there's one way to tell if a cup of gelato is made the traditional way or if it's just ice cream in a fancy suit. She says traditional gelato shouldn't be served with an ice cream scoop. Instead, you have to use a spade, which is flatter — like a spatula. "Not only can you work gelato with the spade to soften it up, but there's a whole artistry," she says. "That's why I love the spade, it's an amazing tool and when you're using it to scoop gelato, people love seeing that." When it comes to actually eating gelato, she says one thing matters most: "Eat it fresh." "When you make anything at home, it never tastes the same the next day," she says. "These recipes in my book — they're meant to be consumed within 24 hours."

Carpigiani:
Spreading the culture of artisan gelato throughout the world Today Carpigiani has a worldwide presence in markets such as Spain, France, Germany, UK, USA, Japan, Russia, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, China and so on. In particular, in India Carpigiani is represented by Delta Nutritives, the country’s main provider of ingredients and processing solution for the gelato industry.
C
arpigiani is an Italian company, located near Bologna, specialized in the production of artisan gelato and soft serve machines. It claims control of more than half of the world market as for the first ones, and about the forty per cent as for both. The technological growth of the 1960s, which saw the invention of the “hard-o-matic” machine, allowed Carpigiani to become the worldwide leader in the gelato machinery industry.
In 1993 Carpigiani was certified UNI EN ISO 9001:1987. It was the first company in the business to receive that certification. In 2003, Carpigiani founded the Carpigiani Gelato University, a school that teaches artisan gelato production techniques and sustains the development of gelato shops all over the world.
Mr. Andrea Georgacopulo, Exports Sales Manager of Carpigiani, Italy, talked about Carpigiani’s presence in India and his own experience. Excerpts from the interview; Could you give us a brief insight about your company, Carpigiani? Carpigiani was founded 70 years ago and immediately started manufacturing gelato, ice cream and pastry equipment with the aim of making life easier in the food processing facility. Furthermore, we have also established in 2003 the Carpigiani Gelato University, where we teach students from all over the world how to make artisan gelato with our machines. In fact, many people from India come to our university in order to be trained in the art of gelato
and ice cream making. We start from basic to advanced training, which is very important, and the second step is to support our students in the opening of their own business. What we do is try to understand what is right for them, provide them with the right equipment so that they can establish an efficient gelato business. How do you view India as a destination market for gelato? As far as gelato markets are concerned, the industrial gelato and ice cream market is growing rapidly in India. States such as Gujarat are exemplary of this growth. Artisan gelato market, however, is still in a nascent stage in India, though it has many opportunities in the time to come. During the last stage Gelato World Tour in Singapore – our international competition for gelato artisans around the world - we had a lot of applications from India and we selected Vanjimuthu Palaniswamy and Kavithamani Vanjimuthu from Boomerang gelateria amongst the 16 finalists. Is India going to be a big market for gelato in the near future? It certainly is. Many people are willing to learn how to make gelato and how to use fresh ingredients, which means that people in India are becoming aware of the quality of good gelato and want to consume fresh, natural ingredients instead of derivatives and substitutes. So having people from India in our university not only proves how
willing they are to learn and spread artisan gelato culture, but also that the market will definitely see a substantial growth. Do you think India will have a gelato university? Would you help in its establishment? While our University headquarters are in Bologna, we already have a campus in Dubai where we do base training. Moreover, through the cooperation with our local distributor, we are planning to organize online base courses in Mumbai with the instructor teaching via video. It is a lot easier and less expensive for people from India to go to Dubai or Mumbai. How different is your machinery from your counterparts? Carpigiani is a 70-year-old company known for its technology, which we have meticulously developed over the years. We as a company are very proud to provide our end users with the best quality and the best service in the entire world. Our distributors have made it possible for us to reach the end user. At AAHAR 2015 Carpigiani has displayed small machines for parlors and companies. What is the response to this machine? The idea was to introduce something that was affordable in order to start a business. So we presented a small machine with a beginner’s professional package included. We have already received several orders and the response is very positive.

romoters of Ice Cream brand Havmor are planning to divest close to 15-20% stake in the company to raise funds for setting up a new plant in Rajasthan or Maharashtra which will focus on north and south markets. Satish Chandra Chona started Havmor in Karachi in 1944, but within three years, following partition, had to wind up and cross the border. In Ahmedabad, however, where he moved in 1951 Havmor was reborn.
Havmor manufactures ice creams in candies, cups, novelties, packs, topo cones, sundaes, premium tubs, roll cuts and sugarless in various flavours like butterscotch, chocolate, vanilla, kesar pista, chocolate chips, cherry berry, strawberry, mango, etc. Currently, the products is available through more than 20,000 outlets across Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.

hether you're warming up to the summer heat, or ordering up a room service treat, a refreshing scoop of ice cream is all you need to cool you down. Guess what? You no longer have to worry about the extra pounds that you will put on after you satiate your sweet tooth. Obviously, if eaten in moderation, ice cream has some surprising health benefits. We've got the scoop on four reasons this frozen concoction may be the perfect splurge. Helps you lose weight: According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that women who ate at least one daily serving of full-fat dairy products, such as ice cream, gained less weight than those who didn't. Obviously, it does not imply that you can go ahead and sit with a tub full of ice cream. Half-cup serving of vanilla or chocolate ice cream - which has about 140 calories, 7g fat and 14g sugar is considered to be a reasonable part of your diet. Helps you fight infertility: Another reason why women may indulge in ice cream is credited to a Harvard study in the journal Human Reproduction
which suggests that consuming full-fat milk or ice cream may increase your chances of having a baby. The study looked at the eating habits of more than 18,000 women between the ages of 24 and 42. Women who ate full-fat ice cream two or more times a week had a 38% lower risk of ovulationrelated infertility than women who had full-fat ice cream less than once a week. Provides important nutrients: While there is no denying that ice cream is not exactly considered a health food, it does come with its own set of benefits. Its main ingredients like cream, milk and sugar helps in bone-strengthening, tissue repair and cell growth. Makes you smile: One scoop of ice-cream and you feel good, ever wondered why? It is because it simply tastes delicious. Another study found out that a spoonful of the cold stuff actually makes you happy. According to researchers from the Institute of Psychiatry in London, when people enjoy themselves an immediate effect takes place on an area of the brain called the orbitofrontal cortex, a pleasure center that activates.

How An Ice Cream Stand Made Pineapple A Local Flavour Of Missouri
P
ineapple Whip is a familiar summer destination for many people in Springfield, Mo. But even in the depths of winter, long lines have turned out for the treat. All summer, Weekend Edition has been travelling the country in search of local flavour. The Midwest marks the latest stop on that trip of taste, down in Springfield, Mo. But the spot we found sports a distinctly tropical vibe. It's called Pineapple Whip — both the beloved
frozen dessert, and the series of roadside stands that sling them to long lines of eager eaters. And the treat is simple, too: a nondairy, juice-based soft serve. Something so simple, and so distinctive, it's tough to label it with any readily recognizable category, any name but its own. But how did such a tropical taste get so associated with the middle of Missouri? "You'd have to ask my grandfather that," says Zach Fortner, the owner of Pineapple Whip. "He put down roots here years ago, and this is where
he started it. So this is where we remain." It's been a while, too: Three generations of Fortners have been serving up pineapple whip. And while the pineapples have to be shipped in from elsewhere — you can thank crop troubles in Missouri the past few years for that — the enthusiasm for the confection is all local. "It's summer, so we're busy. We're only open during the summer months," says Fortner. But last winter, they did try something new, opening for three days in the bitter cold. "We called it our 'Whip Solstice.' People actually came! We had lines a hundred deep, and it was 27 degrees outside. We're still scratching our heads on that one a little bit." There isn't just one flavor. In fact, there are six: the trusty original, mango peach, strawberry kiwi, grape, orange and a pomegranate banana combo called, naturally, "nanagranate." "Very often, we have ... moms who've just had their babies, and the first request the mom has is to have some pineapple whip brought to them. I always like seeing things like that," Fortner says.
"We had a wedding party come on their way to the reception a few weeks ago." The whip-churning's a bit of an about-face for Fortner, in particular. It may be a family business, but it wasn't always his. He was a banker for 10 years before coming to the business — and, he says, the change of scenery has been a joy. "I couldn't have picked a [more] polar opposite career to switch to," Fortner says. "But I wouldn't trade it for the world. I get to make people happy all day, so what more could you ask for." As for those long lines of happy people, well: "We're just thankful that we have people coming back to see us as often as they do."

The great British pass-time of camping also apparently came back into fashion last year, with sleeping bag sales going up four-fold, along with increased sales of tents and camper vans. Interestingly the figures show that sales of beer and cider change with the temperature – with sales going up during warm summers and dropping during cooler ones. And of course those fair-weather cyclists make use of the temporary hot weather, with sales of UK-manufactured bicycles hitting £60.2million in 2014, which is an increase of two thirds on 2013.

Beet Ice Cream, red-pepper sorbet: Yes, Vegetables are now the stars of your favourite frozen treat
W
hen Grinning Face, a non-dairy gelato shop in Toronto’s Cabbagetown neighbourhood, introduced a wildflower-honey and beet flavour to its clientele last year, the response was overwhelmingly good – and bad. “It’s our most polarizing flavour,â€? says owner Keo Williamson. “People wanted to try it just to see how a vegetable is incorporated into a dessert. Some were expecting [it] to taste like a salad, but it doesn’t.â€? In fact, the ice cream is smooth and sweet, with a distinct beetiness minus the vegetable’s usual earthy twang. It’s made of mild golden beets roasted in honey, then swirled with red beets, which add colour contrast and a slightly stronger flavour. The young Toronto company, which specializes in gelato with a coconut-milk base, is one of a growing crop of ice-cream makers who are harnessing the power of vegetables. From San Francisco to Montreal, pint packers, scoop shops and even restaurants are experimenting with increasingly bold flavours of the vegetal variety. The trend is rooted in contemporary restaurant cuisine, where, more and more, vegetables have gone from being an afterthought to the main event. “Being open to using vegetables along with herbs and spices is not something I ever had to think too much about,â€? says Jake Godby of Humphry Slocombe, the famously unconventional San Francisco scoop shop. “All of our ice creams and sorbets are sweet even when they contain what are perceived as savoury elements,â€? he says. “We make sorbets from carrots and beets, both of which themselves are very sweet vegetables. We also make a Candy Cap mushroom ice cream, which tastes like maple syrup.â€? Meanwhile, at New York’s veg-forward Dirt Candy restaurant, chef Amanda Cohen comes at it from a different perspective. “I think we’re moving away from overly sweet desserts, and one of the nice things about vegetables is that, while they do have their own sweetness, it’s not cloying. Also, they open up a huge range of flavours to play with. I love incorporating the bright, fresh vegetal blast you can get from greens, or the dank earthiness you can get from root vegetables.â€? So what might you find on Dirt Candy’s dessert menu? “I’m having a hard time thinking of a vegetable I haven’t turned into ice cream,â€? Cohen says. “I’ve made ice cream with broccoli, radishes, lettuce, cucumber, corn, red beets, yellow beets, grilled radicchio, parsnips, squash, celeriac, sweet peas, fennel and sweet potatoes.â€? “There’s been a large change in the kind of flavours that are available,â€? says Douglas Goff, professor in the department of food science at the University of Guelph. “Vegetable flavours, spice ice creams, savoury and hot chili flavours are all becoming more common,â€? according to Goff, who has been teaching the school’s ice-cream technology course for 28 years. “[The popularity of] fruit flavours such as strawberry and peach have gone way down.â€? Even mass producers such as Häagen-Dazs have tentatively stepped into the field. Last spring, the company tested an ice-cream line called Spoon Vege in Japan, featuring flavours like Tomato Cherry and Carrot Orange, which were marketed as a healthier alternative with only 8.5 per cent fat. At Bang Bang ice-cream parlour and bakery on Toronto’s Ossington strip, meanwhile, scoops are a hedonistic 22 per cent milk fat, and flavours such as avocado and corn on the cob are spooned into an array of decadent vessels. “We do icecream sandwiches, primarily made with five types of cookies,â€? says co-owner Rosanne Pezzelli. “We EDITOR Firoz H. Naqvi
also make a hot Hong Kong-style waffle, and we do profiteroles.â€? Other purveyors such as Humphry Slocombe stick to sugar cones or cups, or send out their frozen veggie confections to restaurants, where they are plated as desserts. Julien Lebuis of Montreal icecream parlour Les GivrĂŠs does the same. “Chefs who want to add vegetable ice cream to their menu call us.â€? The co-owner of two retail locations as well as a wholesale operation, Lebuis says
Les GivrĂŠs makes a corn ice cream in summer, a butternut-squash flavour in late fall and lots of custom options in between. “We did a redpepper sorbet for the restaurant Smoking VallĂŠe in Montreal. It was amazing – really refreshing. They used it in a frozen cocktail, Le Trou Normand, with a special kind of gin.â€? Anyone eager to try out the trend at their next dinner party is spoiled for choices. A little homemade corn ice cream takes chocolate cake to a different place
– simply fold some freshly roasted kernels into a good-quality pint of vanilla. Likewise, a peeled, seeded and chopped tomato adds excitement to a scoop of strawberry. But easiest and perhaps most enticing of all is following Les GivrÊs’ lead: Use red pepper or carrot juice in your favourite sorbet recipe in place of fruit, then freeze and serve with vodka or gin.
