PARFAIT

A parfait is a dessert made from frozen whipped cream, sweetened and
flavored. An old fashioned parfait was not frozen in an ice cream freezer;
the mixture was packed at once into a mold, the mold packed in salt and ice
to freeze for two or three hours. To be perfect, the mixture must be frozen
on the outside to the depth of one and a half to two inches, with a soft
centre. The quick parfait given under frozen desserts is now in general
use.
