How to Remove Ice Cream Stains.
Ice Cream…LOVE IT!!! It’s better than chocolate because the chocolate can be incorporated into the ice cream. What a comfort food, it’s cool, smooth, sweet, and fun. So many flavors, Baskin-Robins has 31, Ben and Jerry’s has another 50 or more, not to mention the Asian influence such as Green Tea, Lychee, and Taro. From a professional stain removes point of view, do we need to worry about all those different flavors and ingredients? No, if we focus on removing the basic ingredients, the others will not be an issue. The basic ingredients are cream, sugar, and fat from the cream. Simple!
