List of ice cream varieties by country
This article is about the ice cream varieties around the world. While industrial ice cream exists in Argentina and can be found in supermarkets, restaurants or kiosks, and ice cream pops are sold on some streets and at the beaches, the most traditional Argentine "helado" (ice cream) is very similar to Italian gelato, rather than US-style ice cream, and it has become one of the most popular desserts in the country. Among the most famous manufacturers are "Freddo," "Persicco," "Chungo", "Cremolatti" and "Munchi's," all of them located in Buenos Aires. Each city has its own "heladerías" (ice cream parlours) which offer different varieties of creamy and water-based ice creams, including both standard and regional flavours.
Ice cream
Ice cream (derived from earlier iced cream or cream ice) 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. It is typically sweetened with sugar or sugar substitutes. Typically, flavourings and colourings are added in addition to stabilizers. The mixture is stirred to incorporate air spaces and cooled below the freezing point of water to prevent detectable ice crystals from forming. The result is a smooth, semi-solid foam that is solid at very low temperatures (< ).
Milkshake
A milkshake is a sweet, cold beverage which is usually made from milk, ice cream, or iced milk, and flavorings or sweeteners such as butterscotch, caramel sauce, chocolate syrup, or fruit syrup. Outside the United States, milkshakes using ice cream or iced milk are sometimes called a thick milkshake or thick shake; in New England, the term frappe may be used to differentiate it from thinner forms of flavored milk. Full-service restaurants, soda fountains, and diners usually prepare and mix the shake "by hand" from scoops of ice cream and milk in a blender or drink mixer using a stainless steel cup.
Ice cream parlor
Ice cream parlors (or parlours) are restaurants that sell ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and frozen yogurt to consumers. Ice cream is typically sold as regular ice cream (also called hard-packed ice cream), gelato, and soft serve, which is usually dispensed by a machine with a limited number of flavors (e.g., chocolate, vanilla, and "twist", a mix of the two). It is customary for ice cream parlors to offer a number of flavors and items. Parlors often serve ice cream and other frozen desserts in cones or in dishes, to be eaten with a spoon. Some ice cream parlours prepare ice cream desserts such as sundaes (ice cream topped with syrup, whipped cream and other toppings) or milkshakes.
Ice cream sandwich
An ice cream sandwich is a frozen dessert consisting of ice cream between two wafers, cookies, or other similar biscuit. Within Australia, ice cream sandwiches are given the commercial name of "Giant Sandwich" (recognizable by its distinct blue and pink wrapper), and "Monaco Bar" (recognizable by its gold and black metallic wrapper) in the Eastern states. Other varieties include Streets "Cookie", "Maxibon" (with one-half ice cream sandwich) and "Maxibon Cookie", and "Pat and Stick's Homemade range" (recognizable by its circular shape). The original ice cream sandwich was commonly known as a "cream between".
House of Flavors
House of Flavors, based in Ludington, Michigan, is a manufacturer of ice cream that is sold throughout the world. They have a 1950s themed ice cream parlor in front of the manufacturing plant. Their signature flavor is their "Blue Moon" ice cream. House of Flavors was founded in 1929 when Guy W. Hawley owned a dairy business west of downtown Ludington. The dairy at 402 West Ludington Avenue had no official name then as it was part of a farm operation. Sometime after 1930 Roland Benedict and Albert Bradshaw became partners with Hawley. Albert Miller bought out Benedict and Bradshaw in 1935 and the dairy business became known as Miller's Dairy.
Green tea ice cream
There is a clear indication that Mount Fuji-shaped green tea ice cream was an item on the menu at the royal dinner party during the Meiji period (1868–1912). The true origin of green tea ice cream, however, is unknown. Although green tea itself seems to have existed as local handmade ice cream at some districts in Japan, none of the Japanese flavored ice creams were really merchandised until the 1990s because the major Japanese ice cream manufacturers were producing vanilla, strawberry and chocolate as their primary flavors. However, green tea shaved ice has been well known and popular in Japan long before green tea ice cream.

I do like a good blizzard from Dairy Queen - my favorite ice cream is probably moose tracks.
