814-Lancnter Farming, Saturday, September 24, 1994 SYRACUSE. N.Y. Ice cream made the old-fashioned, hand-cranked way was the high light of the third annual Celebrity Ice Cream Making contest held August 29 in celebration of Dairy Day at the New York State Fair. Sponsored by ADADC and the Dairy Products Building Task Force, seven teams from local radio and television stations and the Syracuse Newspapers deve loped their own original ice cream flavors. Each team had the opportunity to creatively select and add then own secret ingredients to the basic mix, which is what set aside the winning team. From pineapple and coconut to hazelnut coffee and rich chocolate chunks, no two flavors were alike. The basic ice cream mix, consisting of milk, sugar, eggs and cream, was donated this year by Upstate Milk Cooperative, Inc., of Syracuse. Judging die seven flavors on originality and taste were Senator Nancy Lanaine Hoffmann, Mayor Roy Bemardi and New York’s very own state Dairy Princess, Jennifer Emerling. “I really enjoyed tasting all the unique and delicious flavors,” said Miss Emerling. “Even though it was so difficult to select a winner, I have to say my favorite was the “Syracuse Crunch Ice Hockey Cream” because of my affinity for anything with lots of chocolate in it!” Syracuse radio station 9SX FM WAQX developed the winning flavor which was named after the new Syracuse hockey team. Packed with Nestle Crunch bars, chocolate chunks, and granola, the flavor was convincing to the judges. “For the 3rd year, we were glad to be a part of exciting com petition,” said Dave Coombs of 95X. “Our team really worked hard to develop ‘Syracuse Crunch Ice Hockey Cream’ and then to crank it out for the judging. We just hope more people try to make ice cream at home, it’s truly outstanding!” WTVH-TVS added chocolate chips and Oreo cookies to their ice cream mix to create a “Holstein Dream.” The Syracuse Newspap ers came up with “Java Delight,” packed with chocolate chunks, Reeses Pieces, Oreos, and instant coffee. As the hand-cranking con tinued, fairgoers were able to sample the team flavors, which were prepared in advance by Gary Raid of Colosse Cheese Store, Pulaski. At the conclusion of the contest, American Dairy Associa tion held a drawing for a free ice cream freezer for the public. Also, recipes of the speciality flavors were distributed for use at home.
