They slow churn the custard so its creamier than ice cream!. Ice cream has more of a sugary sweet taste that seems to be masked by different flavors!. Frozen custard tends be less sugary and only comes in Vanilla and Chocolate!. The way to really flavor up the custard is to add all the extras, like Reese's peanut butter cups, butterfingers, M&M's, even hot fudge, caramel and pecans!. The custard serves as a backdrop to the wonderful additions you can put on your custard!.

I like custard better because of the texture!. I would describe it as being smooth and silky almost lightweight when in fact it isn't at all!. Ice cream and Frozen custard look identical, and one wouldn't think that there was a huge difference in the texture, but low and behold there is!. Frozen custard is incredibly smooth with no ice chips and no after taste!.

Ice cream can at times have a slight after taste, usually due in part to all of those artificial flavors!. Frozen custard is made from pure butterfat, egg yolk and cream!. Some different Manufacturers of frozen custard I'm sure vary their ingredients around a bit, but mainly there are not many added preservatives!. Ice cream can contain many preservatives and additives which take away from the taste!. If you look on a carton of ice cream next time you buy it, you will see a lot of artificial ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, and hydrogenated soybean and cottonseed oils, yuck I don't know about you but I don't want to eat that junk it sounds like it could take on a life of its own!Www@FoodAQ@Com
