Temperature

Freezing

Mint chocolate chip ice cream is already a frozen product and should remain frozen until ready to serve. If you have leftover ice cream, ensure it's tightly sealed in its original container or an airtight freezer-safe container to prevent freezer burn and maintain its delicious texture. Avoid refreezing melted ice cream, as this can compromise its quality and safety.

Signs of Spoilage

• Presence of ice crystals on the surface, indicating repeated thawing and refreezing.
• Off-putting, sour, or rancid smell.
• Significant changes in texture, such as becoming icy, grainy, or overly watery.
