The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act(NLEA) fully implemented in 1995 allowed for some modifying terminology. According to this act, ice cream can be modified to be called reduced-fat ice cream, light ice cream, low-fat ice cream and no-fat ice cream... no-fat ice cream contains less than half a gram of fat per serving. These modified ice creams can also weigh not less than 4. 0 pounds per gallon rather than the 4. 5 pounds per gallon stipulated for regular ice cream.

As the ice cream is drawn with about half of its water frozen, particulate matter such as fruits, nuts, candy, cookies, or whatever you like, is added to the semi-frozen slurry which has a consistency similar to soft-serve ice cream. In fact, almost the only thing which differentiates hard frozen ice cream from soft-serve, is the fact that soft serve is drawn into cones at this point in the process rather than into packages for subsequent hardening.

OBS

Soft serve ice cream: frozen dairy product mixes e.g. includes soft serve yogurt, milk shake mix.
