Yesterday November 16th we went to the Tip Top factory to find out about marvellous machines. There are cool machines with pipes and containers. They would put lollies in a machine, then the machine would mix it in the ice-cream. The Homogeniser machine punched the three ingredients that make the ice-cream soft. The three main ingredients are sugar, milk and cream.
The Pasteuriser machine takes all the bacteria that's in the ice-cream out by making it hot and in seconds freezing it. They will put it in the fridge for 12 hours.
Then the flavours are mixed in the ice-cream. The ice-cream goes through the pipes and then it mixes it up with the flavours.
It was time for ice-cream. We went into a room and watched a movie. “Wow!” We were eating our ice-cream.
