The remainder of the Regulations mentioned in the first paragraph above specified compositional standards, imposed requirements as to labelling and, for ice cream, advertising.

These Regulations also amend the definition of "ice cream" in the Cocoa and Chocolate Products Regulations 1976 and in the Cocoa and Chocolate Products (Scotland) Regulations 1976.
