Ice cream is a colloid combining an emulsion and a foam, with milk fat, ice crystals and air (a liquid, a solid and a gas) spread throughout another liquid (the water from the milk). In traditional homemade ice cream, the lecithin in egg yolks acts as the emulsifier, keeping the colloid stable.
How Ice Cream is Made. In its most basic form, ice cream is a mixture of cream and/or milk, sugar and sometimes eggs that is frozen while being churned to create a frozen product. In commercial ice-cream making, stabilizers, such as plant gums, are usually added and the mixture is pasteurized and homogenized. The mixture may have flavourings added, from something as simple as vanilla to fruit or other flavours and pieces of candy.
