工作原理
- 1
Enter the amounts of milk, heavy cream, sugar, and egg yolks in grams.
- 2
The calculator sums them to get the total base weight.
- 3
It also computes the sugar percentage and approximate fat percentage.
- 4
Use these numbers to adjust your recipe for desired sweetness and richness.
milk + cream + sugar + yolks常见问题
What is a typical ice cream base ratio?
A common base uses about 2 parts milk to 1 part cream, with sugar around 15-20% of total weight and egg yolks about 10-15%.
Why is fat percentage important?
Fat affects texture and mouthfeel. Higher fat (10-16%) gives a creamier, richer ice cream, while lower fat can result in icier texture.
Can I use this calculator for a custard base?
Yes, it works for any base that uses milk, cream, sugar, and egg yolks. Adjust the amounts to match your recipe.

公式
此计算器背后的数学公式，供您核对结果。
Total Weight
Simply add all ingredient weights to get the total base weight.
Example:
Input: Milk=500g, Cream=300g, Sugar=150g, Yolks=100g
Calculation: 500+300+150+100
Result: 1050g
Sugar Percentage
The proportion of sugar in the base, which affects sweetness and freezing point.
Example:
Input: Sugar=150g, Total=1050g
Calculation: 150/1050×100
Result: 14.3%
实际应用场景
此计算在日常生活中的应用。
Recipe Scaling
Scale a base recipe up or down by adjusting ingredient amounts and seeing the total.
Example: Double a recipe by doubling all inputs.
Nutrition Estimation
Estimate sugar and fat content to align with dietary goals.
Example: Check if sugar percentage stays below 18%.
Custard vs. Philadelphia Style
Compare bases with and without egg yolks to see the difference in fat and weight.
Example: Set yolks to 0 for a Philadelphia-style base.
提示与常见错误
Tips
- Use a kitchen scale for accurate measurements.
- For a richer base, increase cream and yolks; for a lighter one, use more milk.
- Sugar percentage between 14-18% is typical for ice cream.
- Fat percentage around 10-16% gives a good balance of creaminess and scoopability.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Forgetting to include egg yolks in the total weight.
- Using whole eggs instead of yolks, which changes the fat and protein content.
- Not accounting for the fat content of cream and milk when estimating richness.
假设与限制
- Use the stated inputs and units.
- Results are estimates for planning and education.
- Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
