<p>The invention encompasses methods of preparing a stratified frozen confection for hand consumption and the related confection. The methods include filling an aliquot container defining a three dimensional shape with at least one open end with an amount of a frozen material, reducing the temperature of the frozen material within the scoop to about -12.2°C (10°F) or less; placing a first surface of the frozen material in contact with an interior surface of a first substrate, the first substrate having a length dimension an a width dimension; removing the frozen material from the aliquot container. The first surface of the frozen material is in contact with the interior surface of the first substrate and a second surface of the frozen material is positioned in a plane above the plane of the first substrate. Thereafter, the methods include manipulating the second surface of the frozen material to place at least one cavity in the second surface; disposing upon the second surface of the frozen material an amount of a filling to form a filling layer that has a first surface that is in contact with the second surface of the frozen material and a second surface; applying a second substrate to the second surface of the filling, the second substrate having a width dimension and a length dimension. Thus, a stratified frozen confection having at least two layers disposed between a first substrate and a second substrate is formed.</p> |
