ICE-CREAM
The number of manufacturers of ice-cream in the Borough is
now 6. Each of them is equipped to produce pasteurised ice-cream,
and production is in every way in accord with the Ice-Cream

157 samples were taken, 94 of ice-cream manufactured in the
Borough, and 63 from shops or itinerant vendors trading in icecream
manufactured outside the Borough.

in the Borough.
