I am lucky to have a “Dripp” near me – and
they have loads of different flavors of ice
cream, plus loads of different flavors of
cookies, with which to make ice cream
sandwiches!

different kinds of cookies! WOW!

nThisntypical American version of an ice cream sandwich was created andnpatented by four fellows in 1963, but pictures from Atlantic Citynshow that ice cream sandwiches were popular way back in the earlyn1900s – and cost just a penny each! n

nAccordingnto the book Sugar and Snow: A History of Ice Cream Making, by JerinQuinzio, the first ice cream sandwich was created in 1899 by anpushcart merchant in New York City. His first-ever version wasnvanilla ice cream between two thin graham wafers. Nobody seems tonknow the innovative peddler’s name. (And of course, it is possiblenthat someone else sold a similar treat elsewhere – this is the kindnof idea that is likely to have occurred to more than onenperson!)

Many different nations have ice cream sandwichntraditions that are not necessarily well known here. For example, innSingapore ice cream sandwiches are often made with red bean, yam,nsweet corn, or honeydew melon flavors and are sandwiched between twonwafers.
