Summary
A profession that manufactures frozen confections (such as ice cream and sherbet) consistently from raw material blending through sterilization, stirring, freezing, and packaging.
Description
Frozen confectionery makers mass-produce frozen desserts such as ice cream, sherbet, and gelato in factories.
