The mixture must be stirred and whipped until the cream and sugar mixture is frozen. Depending on the equipment, this may take as long as an hour. After the ice-cream is prepared, it must be kept frozen until it is ready to be enjoyed. Making ice-cream is difficult, but most people would agree that it is worth the trouble.

The supply is the product that can be purchased and the demand is how many people want the product. Since it is cold in the winder, the demand for swimsuits is low. This means that swimsuits will be cheaper in the winter. In the summer, a lot of people need swimsuits. This high demand causes swimsuits to cost full price.
