the ice creams with different levels of inulin (except that with 4% inulin) were melted much faster in the mouth than the control one (with 10% fat) and obtained a significantly lower average score than the control ice cream. From the panellists' view, only the sample containing 4% inulin had a melting rate similar to that of the control ice cream.
Akin, Akin, and Kirmaci (2007) conducted research on the effect of inulin and sugar on the physical and sensory properties of prebiotic ice cream and determined that addition of inulin had no effect on the sensory attributes of ice cream.
