National Frozen Custard Day

Frozen custard is a type of frozen dessert that is similar to ice cream, but with a richer and creamier texture. It is made with a base of egg yolks, cream, sugar, and flavorings, which are mixed together and then churned in a special machine that freezes and aerates the mixture. One of the key differences between frozen custard and ice cream is the addition of egg yolks to the custard base. This gives frozen custard a richer and creamier texture, as well as a slightly yellow color. Frozen custard was first created in the United States in the early 1900s, and it became a popular treat in the Midwest and on the East Coast. Today, it is still a popular dessert in many parts of the country, particularly in the Midwest. Frozen custard is often served in specialty shops and ice cream stands, and it can be enjoyed on its own or with toppings such as hot fudge, caramel sauce, or fresh fruit. It is also a popular ingredient in desserts such as sundaes, milkshakes, and pies.
