product using basically milk and milk products.
Prior to the present invention many types of dairy food
desserts were on the market especially a dessert known
as "Yogurt", which is milk that has been allowed to
ferment to a semisolid consistency Various types of

a cottage cheese that cannot be purchased across the
: :-
counter must be used. It is a specially made cheesewith no salt added and is produced only~the creamery

.
cottage cheese is not acceptable since it does not give
the same, smooth, silky looking texture and leaves a
powdery taste. The cottage cheese must be blended to a
very smooth texture.
In a separate container place the cream or cream and
