Ice cream sundaes have been pleasuring our collective senses ever since 1892, when an enterprising soda fountain proprietor in Ithaca, New York, accessorized a scoop of ice cream with sweet syrup and a candied cherry, then named it after the day it was invented. The Ice Cream Sundae Book offers a scholarly glimpse into sundae culture with a collection of authentic formulas for the assembly of both plain and fancy sundaes as well as make-your-own ice creams and toppings.
