Because of the dilemma of earning bread without causing harm to someone, Ramjibhai Patel started thinking of an alternate means of livelihood. One day, he dreamt of selling ice cream; it convinced him that it was god’s message to follow the right path. Started in 1991, Prabhu Ice Cream continues to sell softies, slushes, sundaes, 32 ice cream flavours, thick shakes and their best-seller — ice cream sandwich; almost 200 of which are sold every day.u00a0
