			A '''frozen dessert''' is a type of dessert made by freezing liquids, semi-solids, and sometimes even solids. They are typically sweet and consumed as a treat or snack. Frozen desserts come in various forms and flavors, often incorporating fruits, dairy, and sweeteners.

	== Types of Frozen Desserts ==		== Types of Frozen Desserts ==
	~~There are~~ several types ~~of frozen desserts including [[ice cream]], [[gelato]], [[sorbet]], [[frozen yogurt]]~~, ~~and [[frozen custard]]. Each type has its own~~ unique characteristics and preparation ~~methods~~.
			Frozen desserts can be broadly categorized into several types, each with unique characteristics and methods of preparation.

	=== Ice Cream ===		=== Ice Cream ===
	[[Ice cream]] is ~~a sweetened~~ frozen ~~food typically eaten as a snack or~~ dessert. It is ~~usually~~ made from dairy products, such as milk and cream, and often ~~combined with fruits~~ or ~~other ingredients~~ and flavors.
			[[Ice cream]] is perhaps the most well-known frozen dessert. It is made from [[dairy]] products such as milk and cream, combined with sweeteners and flavorings. The mixture is churned while freezing to incorporate air and prevent the formation of large ice crystals, resulting in a smooth texture.

			=== Sorbet ===

			[[Sorbet]] is a non-dairy frozen dessert made from sweetened water flavored with fruit juice, fruit purée, wine, or liqueur. It is known for its refreshing taste and is often served as a palate cleanser between courses in a meal.

			=== Sherbet ===

			[[Sherbet]] is similar to sorbet but contains a small amount of dairy, such as milk or cream, which gives it a creamier texture than sorbet. It is often fruit-flavored and can be found in a variety of colors and flavors.

	=== Gelato ===		=== Gelato ===
	~~[[Gelato]] is a popular frozen dessert of Italian origin. It is generally made with a base of 3.25% milk and sugar. It is generally lower in fat than other styles of frozen desserts.~~

	~~=== Sorbet ===~~		[[Gelato]] is an Italian-style ice cream that is denser than traditional ice cream. It contains less air and more flavoring, resulting in a richer taste. Gelato is typically made with milk, sugar, and flavorings, and is served at a slightly warmer temperature than ice cream.
	[[~~Sorbet~~]] is a ~~frozen dessert~~ made ~~from sweetened water~~ with ~~flavoring (typically fruit juice or fruit purée~~, ~~wine~~, and~~/or liqueur)~~.

	=== Frozen Yogurt ===		=== Frozen Yogurt ===
	~~[[Frozen yogurt]] is a frozen dessert made with yogurt and sometimes other dairy products. It is usually more tart than ice cream and has a lower fat content.~~

	=== ~~Frozen Custard~~ ===		[[Frozen yogurt]] is a frozen dessert made with yogurt and sometimes other dairy products. It is often marketed as a healthier alternative to ice cream due to its lower fat content and the presence of live bacterial cultures.
	[[~~Frozen custard~~]] is a ~~cold~~ dessert similar to ~~ice cream~~, ~~but made~~ with ~~eggs in addition~~ to cream ~~and~~ sugar.
			=== Granita ===

			[[Granita]] is a semi-frozen dessert made from sugar, water, and various flavorings. It is similar to sorbet but has a coarser, more crystalline texture. Granita is often flavored with fruit, coffee, or nuts.

			== Preparation and Ingredients ==

			The preparation of frozen desserts involves freezing a mixture of ingredients while simultaneously mixing to incorporate air and achieve the desired texture. Common ingredients include:

			* [[Dairy products]]: milk, cream, yogurt
			* [[Sweeteners]]: sugar, honey, artificial sweeteners
			* [[Flavorings]]: fruit purées, chocolate, vanilla, nuts
			* [[Stabilizers]]: gelatin, agar, guar gum

	== Health Considerations ==		== Health Considerations ==
	While frozen desserts are often viewed as a treat or indulgence, some types can be a part of a healthy diet. For example, frozen yogurt often contains beneficial probiotics and can be lower in fat than ice cream.

	== ~~See Also~~ ==		While frozen desserts are enjoyed for their taste and cooling effect, they can be high in [[calories]], [[sugar]], and [[fat]]. Some frozen desserts, like frozen yogurt, are marketed as healthier options due to their lower fat content and probiotic benefits.
