                                According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for a frozen dessert to be classified as custard, it must contain a minimum of 1.4% egg yolk solids.  Rita's vanilla custard is no exception, relying on a specific blend of dairy, eggs, and stabilizers to achieve its signature rich and smooth texture. This sweet treat is freshly prepared and contains both natural and artificial vanilla flavors for its classic taste profile.
