Hard ice cream has more hard texture than the other kind of ice cream because this ice cream is use some whole eggs. This ice cream is made with cream and/or milk, sugar, and may contain eggs, stabilizers and other flavouring ingredients such as vanilla, chocolate, fruit and many other add-ins. Maybe if sometimes you want ice cream that heavier in your mouth just eat this one.

Soft ice cream usually served at the ice cream shop. This ice cream is more smooth because don’t use the eggs. To have a smooth texture you need a machine to keep the temperature of the ice cream when you put the ice cream to a bowl or a con. This ice cream made only with milk and/or cream, sugar, stabilizers and flavourings.

This ice cream made with  milk ingredients, sugar, stabilizers and other flavourings that contains at least 25% less milk fat than regular hard ice cream.
