Summary

A total of 150 samples of ice cream, sold in retail from different non-industrial ice cream makers in Spain, were analysed. The chosen types were flavoured, with or without added ingredients (fruits, walnuts, etc.). 47% of the samples had mesophilic aerobic count between 100.000 and 1 million CFU/g. All samples were positive for total coliforms. The enterobacteriaceae count was between 1000 and 10.000 CFU/g for the majority of the samples. Microbes belonging to the group D of Streptococcus genus were found between 10 and 100 CFU/g in 49% of the samples.
