The earliest ice cream was eaten in China many centuries ago． People at that time would put orange juice on the ice or get something cool to drink． Later， this idea traveled to Italy． Around 1660， it was popular to serve ice cream in coffee shops in Paris． Most of the shops were owned by Italians．Among them， the first successful one belonged to（ 屬于）a man named Francesco Procopio.

Ice cream was brought to America in the early 1700s, and it quickly became the favorite of Americans． President George Washington had ice cream pots（罐）and machines in his kitchen．Dolly Madison， the wife of President Madison， was the first one to serve it in the White House．She made her guests very happy when she served such desserts（甜品）.

Before ice cream was sold in stores． it was made and kept at a very low temperature first． It took a lot of work to mix cream， eggs， fruit and ice． Nancy Johnson，an American woman who was good at machines， invented the ice cream freezer in 1846． Five years later． Jacob Flusell opened the first ice cream factory in Baltimore，Maryland．Her business quickly came to other states．

Today in the United States， ice cream is not only a kind of food，but also a way of life．
