Here are some fun facts about ice cream to ponder while you enjoy your favorite dessert!
1. It takes approximately 50 licks to finish one scoop of ice cream.
Think you can do it in less? Of course, there are a variety of factors that can affect this, including flavor, temperature, and how long your tongue is!
2. The ice cream cone was an accident.
At the St Louis World’s Fair in 1904, an ice cream vendor ran out of bowls, so a waffle maker rolled his pastries into the cone shape to help!
3. Nationally, vanilla and chocolate ice cream combine for 52% of ice cream sales.
Here at Strasburg Creamery, our top-selling flavor is the beloved vanilla. So popular that there are 2 tubs of this flavor in the case at all times!
