The History

Historians believe the first ice cream appeared in Persia about 2500 thousand years ago. Initially, it was sweetened frozen water, then various things were added to it – fruits, berries.

Only rich people could afford this treat, because the creation process was highly valued.

Ice cream pies came later. Initially, people simply smeared pies with it, and only later did they come up with the idea of ​​​​adding it inside a baked shell.
