§ 39.12. Ice cream and frozen custard.

 (a)  Description.

   (1)  Ice cream is a food produced by freezing, while stirring, a pasteurized mix consisting of one or more of the optional dairy ingredients specified in subsection (b). Ice cream may contain one or more of the optional caseinates specified in subsection (c), subject to the conditions set foth in this chapter, and other safe and suitable nonmilk-derived ingredients and excluding other food fats, except natural components of flavoring ingredients used or added in incidental amounts to accomplish specific functions. Ice cream is sweetened with nutritive carbohydrate sweeteners and may or may not be characterized by the addition of flavoring ingredients.

   (2)  Ice cream contains not less than 1.6 pounds of total solids to the gallon, and weighs not less than 4.5 pounds to the gallon. Ice cream contains not less than 10% milkfat, not less than 10% nonfat milk solids, except that when it contains milkfat at 1.0% increments above the 10% minimum, it may contain the following milkfat-to-nonfat milk solids levels:

Percent Minimum percent

milkfatnonfat milk solids

10 … 10
11 …  9
12 …  8
13 …  7
14 …  6

   

   When one or more bulky flavors are used, the weights of milkfat and total milk solids are not less than 10% and 20%, respectively, of the remainder obtained by subtracting the weight of the bulky flavors from the weight of the finished food. In no case is the weight of milkfat or total milk solids less than 8.0% and 16%, respectively, of the weight of the finished food. Except in the case of frozen custard, ice cream contains less than 1.4% egg yolk solids by weight of the food, exclusive of the weight of any bulky flavoring ingredients used. Frozen custard shall contain not less than 1.4% egg yolk solids by weight of the finished food; however, when bulky flavors are added the egg yolk solids content of frozen custard may be reduced in proportion to the amount by weight of the bulky flavors added, but in no case is the content of egg yolk solids in the finished food less than 1.12%. A product containing egg yolk solids in excess of 1.4%, the maximum set forth in this paragraph for ice cream, may be marketed if labeled as specified by subsection (e)(1).

   (3)  When calculating the minimum amount of milkfat and nonfat milk solids required in the finished food, the solids of chocolate or cocoa used shall be considered a bulky flavoring ingredient. In order to make allowance for additional sweetening ingredients needed when certain bulky ingredients are used, the weight of chocolate or cocoa solids used may be multiplied by 2.5; the weight of fruit or nuts used may be multiplied by 1.4; and the weight of partially or wholly dried fruits or fruit juices may be multiplied by appropriate factors to obtain the original weights before drying, and this weight may be multiplied by 1.4.

 (b)  Optional dairy ingredients. The optional ingredients referred to in subsection (a) are: cream, dried cream, plastic cream—sometimes known as concentrated milkfat, butter, butter oil, milk, concentrated milk, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, superheated condensed milk, dried milk, skim milk, concentrated skim milk, evaporated skim milk, condensed skim milk, superheated condensed skim milk, sweetened condensed skim milk, sweetened condensed part skim milk, nonfat dry milk, sweet cream buttermilk, condensed sweet cream buttermilk, dried sweet cream buttermilk, skim milk that has been concentrated and from which part of the lactose has been removed by crystallization, skim milk in concentrated or dried form which has been modified by treating the concentrated skim milk with calcium hydroxide and disodium phosphate, and whey and those modified whey products—such as reduced lactose whey, reduced minerals whey, and whey protein concentrate that have been determined by the Food and Drug Administration to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in this type of food. Water may be added, or water may be evaporated from the mix. The sweet cream buttermilk and the concentrated sweet cream buttermilk or dried sweet cream buttermilk, when adjusted with water to a total solids content of 8.5%, has a titratable acidity of not more than 0.17%, calculated as lactic acid. The term ‘‘milk’’ as used in this section means cow’s milk. Whey and modified whey products used contribute, singly or in combination, not more than 25% by weight of the total nonfat milk solids content of the finished food. The modified skim milk, when adjusted with water to a total solids content of 9.0% is substantially free of lactic acid as determined by titration with 0.1N NaOH, and it has a pH value in the range of 8.0 to 8.3.

 (c)  Optional caseinates. The optional caseinates referred to in subsection (a) which may be added to ice cream mix containing not less than 20% total milk solids are: Casein prepared by precipitation with gums, ammonium caseinate, calcium caseinate, potassium caseinate and sodium caseinate. Caseinate may be added in liquid or dry form, but shall be free of excess alkali.

 (d)  Methods of analysis. Fat content shall be determined by the methods contained in the Official Methods of Analysis of the Association of Official Analytical Chemists, 13th Ed., 1980 (A.O.A.C. Methods). Fat content shall be determined by the method contained in Fat; Roese-Gottlieb Method Official Final Action, A.O.A.C. Section 16.287).

 (e)  Nomenclature.

   (1)  The name of the food is ice cream, except that when the egg yolk solids content of the food is in excess of that specified for ice cream by subsection (a), the name of the food is frozen custard or French ice cream or French custard ice cream.

   (2)  If the food contains no artificial flavor, the name of the principal display panels of the label shall be accompanied by the common or usual name of the characterizing flavor, such as vanilla, in letter not less than 1/2 the height of the letters used in the words ‘‘ice cream.’’

   (3)  If the food contains both a natural characterizing flavor and an artificial flavor simulating it, and if the natural flavor predominates, the name of the principal display panels of the labels shall be accompanied by the common name of the characterizing flavor, in letters not less than 1/2 the height of the letters used in the words ‘‘ice cream,’’ followed by the word ‘‘flavored,’’ in letters not less than 1/2 the height of the letters in the name of the characterizing flavor, such as ‘‘Vanilla flavored,’’ or ‘‘Peach flavored,’’ or ‘‘Vanilla flavored and Strawberry flavored.’’

   (4)  If the food contains both a natural characterizing flavor and an artificial flavor simulating it, and if the artificial flavor predominates, or if artificial flavor is used alone the name on the principal display panels of the label shall be accompanied by the common name of the characterizing flavor in letters not less than 1/2 the height of the letters used in the words ‘‘ice cream,’’ preceded by ‘‘artificial’’ or ‘‘artificially flavored,’’ in letters not less than 1/2 the height of the letters in the name of the characterizing flavor, such as ‘‘artificial Vanilla,’’ ‘‘artificially flavored Strawberry,’’ or ‘‘artificially flavored Vanilla and artificially flavored Strawberry.’’

   (5)  If the food is subject to the requirements of paragraph (3), or if it contains any artificial flavor not simulating the characterizing flavor, the label shall also bear the words ‘‘artificial flavor added’’ or ‘‘artificial


flavor added,’’ the blank being filled in with the common name of the flavor simulated by the artificial flavor in letters of the same size and prominence as the words that precede and follow it.

   (6)  Wherever the name of the characterizing flavor appears on the label so conspicuously as to be easily seen under customary conditions of purchase, the words prescribed by this subsection shall immediately and conspicuously precede or follow such name, in a size reasonably related to the prominence of the name of the characterizing flavor. In any event, the size of the type shall not be less than 6-point on packages containing less than 1 pint, not less than 8-point on packages containing at least 1 pint but less than one-half gallon, not less than 10-point on packages containing at least one-half gallon but less than 1 gallon, and not less than 12-point on packages containing 1 gallon or over. Where the characterizing flavor and a trademark or brand are presented together, other written, printed, or graphic matter that is a part of or is associated with the trademark or brand, may intervene if the required words are in such relationship with the trademark or brand as to be clearly related to the characterizing flavor. If the finished product contains more than one flavor of ice cream subject to the requirements of this subsection, the statements required by this subsection need appear only once in each statement of characterizing flavors present in such ice cream, such as ‘‘Vanilla flavored, Chocolate and Strawberry flavored, artificial flavors added.’’

   (7)  If the food contains both a natural characterizing flavor and an artificial flavor simulating the characterizing flavor, a reference to the natural characterizing flavor shall, except as otherwise authorized by this subsection, be accompanied by a reference to the artificial flavor, displayed with substantially equal prominence, such as ‘‘Strawberry and artificial Strawberry flavor.’’

   (8)  An artificial flavor simulating the characterizing flavor shall be deemed to predominate in the following:

     (i)   In the case of vanilla beans or vanilla extract used in combination with vanillin if the amount of vanillin used is greater than 1 ounce per unit of vanilla constituent, as defined in 21 CFR 169.3(c) (relating to definitions).

     (ii)   In the case of fruit or fruit juice used in combination with artificial fruit flavor, if the quantity of the fruit or fruit juice used is such that, in relation to the weight of the finished ice cream, the weight of the fruit or fruit juice—including water necessary to reconstitute partially or wholly dried fruits or fruit juices to their original moisture content—is less than 2.0% in the case of citrus ice cream, 6.0% in the case of berry or cherry ice cream and 10% in the case of ice cream prepared with other fruits.

     (iii)   In the case of nut meats used in combination with artificial nut flavor, if the quantity of nut meats is such that, in relation to the finished ice cream, the weight of the nut meats is less than 2.0%.

     (iv)   In the case of two or more fruits or fruit juices, or nut meats, or both, used in combination with artificial flavors simulating the natural flavors and dispersed throughout the food, if the quantity of any fruit or fruit juice or nut meat is less than one half the applicable percentage specified in subparagraph (ii) or (iii). For example, if a combination ice cream contains less than 5.0% of bananas and less than 1.0% of almonds it would be ‘‘artificially flavored banana-almond ice cream.’’ If it contains more than 5.0% of bananas and more than 1.0% of almonds it would be ‘‘banana-almond flavored ice cream.’’

   (9)  If two or more flavors of ice cream are distinctively combined in one package, as ‘‘Neapolitan’’ ice cream, this paragraph shall govern each flavor of ice cream comprising the combination.

 (f)  Label declaration. Each of the optional ingredients used shall be declared on the label as required by the applicable sections of 21 CFR 101.4 (relating to food; designation of ingredients), except that sources of milkfat or milk solids not fat may be declared in descending order of predominance either by the use of all the terms ‘‘milkfat and nonfat milk’’ when one of any combination of two or more of the ingredients listed in 21 CFR 101.4(b)(3), (4), (8), and (9) are used or alternatively as permitted in 21 CFR 101.4. Under section 402(k) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.A. §  343(K)), (relating to misbranded food) artificial color need not be declared in ice cream. Voluntary declaration of such color in ice cream is recommended.
