The snow was mixed with fruit juice and honey.

Around 1660,coffee shops serving ice cream were very popular in Paris. Most of the coffee shops were owned by Italians. The first successful one was opened by a man from Italy named Francesco Procopio.

Ice cream was probably to America in the early 1700s,and it quickly became the favorite of American presidents. George Washington had ice cream machines in his kitchen. Dolly Madison,the wife of President Madison,was the first one to serve her guests ice cream in the White House.
