During deliberation in the Dairy unit, it has been observed that Company is manufacturing generally Frozen Dessert, a product different from ice cream.
Accordingly the public in general is impressed upon to differentiate Frozen Dessert and Ice cream by simply going through the label declaration as both the product differ in composition as well as quality parameter laid down under the FSS Regulation 2011 but are similar in appearance, taste and texture.
Similarity of appearance, taste and texture of such food product are sometimes targeted to befool gullible consumers on account of huge difference in production cost. Moreover all the FBO dealing with Frozen Desserts are also impressed upon to clearly mention the category of the food for
the awareness of the general public failing which action under FSS Act and rules shall be initiated against the violator.
