Ice pop

Water ice is an ice cream variety, which consists mainly of water and sugar. In addition, may be included (eg, acidulants such as citric acid) as well as coloring and flavoring substance, or in a small amount of fat (usually vegetable), some excipients.

During the freezing process of water ice must not be stirred. It has over frozen water has a lower hardness, since the sugar moiety and the other ingredients prevent the formation of large crystal structures.

Partial water ice is sold by the manufacturers in unfrozen form, so it must be frozen by the seller or by the user himself, which eliminates the expensive cooling during transport. This distribution method is also made ​​possible in that water ice does not contain perishable ingredients and therefore needs no cooling.

After the German food labeling regulation is water ice ( simplified here ) defined as follows: less than 3 % fat, at least 12% dry matter content of flavoring and / or sweetening ingredients.
