Frozen Desserts Around the World
Now's the time to cool off with a sweet, frozen treat.

A children , nothing excited us more on hot summer days than an ice cream truck.

We kids would make a dash for the truck as soon as we heard it coming.

We would quickly hand over our change and be rewarded with a delightful, frozen treat.

Ice cream trucks aren't so common anymore.

But the desire for a frozen treat on hot days seems to be universal.

Here are some popular treats around the world:

Parfait
A favorite in France is the parfait, which means " perfect."

This partly frozen dessert is made with egg yolks, sugars , whipped cream and often a flavored syrup.

It is then served in a tall glass usually with ice cream and fruit in layers.

Turkish mastic ice cream (dondurma)
Like other kinds of ice cream,dondurma is made with milk and sugar.

Thickening agents and flour are also added.

These ingredients make the dessert so chewy that it's usually eaten with a knife and fork!
