Ice cream history

courtesy of wikipedia.org

In the 18th century cream, milk, and egg yolks began to feature in the recipes of previously dairy-free flavoured ices, resulting in ice cream in the modern sense of the word. The 1751 edition of The Art of Cookery made Plain and Easy by Hannah Glasse features a recipe for raspberry cream ice.

 

In 1843, Nancy Johnson of Philadelphia was issued the first U.S. patent for a small-scale hand cranked ice cream freezer. The invention of the ice cream soda gave Americans a new treat, adding to ice cream's popularity.

 

The ice cream sundae originated in the late 19th century.

 

20th century

 

The history of ice cream in the 20th century is one of great change and increases in availability and popularity.

 

Ice cream became popular throughout the world in the second half of the 20th century after cheap refrigeration became common.

 

One important development in the 20th century was the introduction of soft ice cream, this was by a chemical research team in Britain (of which a young Margaret Thatcher was a member).
