National Ice Cream Sandwich Day 2023
August 2, 2023 in the USA
National Ice Cream Sandwich Day is celebrated on August 02, 2023. An ice cream sandwich is a frozen confection composed of a layer of ice cream sandwiched between two biscuits/cookies or slices of cake.
Alternatives to wafers are often used, such as chocolate chip cookies, which are used by Chipwich, for example. Many companies offer alternatives to the conventional ice cream sandwich as well, such as San Francisco's It's-It, that uses oatmeal cookies and dips the sandwich in dark chocolate.
In North America, an ice cream sandwich is a slice of ice cream, commonly vanilla although other flavors are sometimes used, sandwiched between two wafers, usually chocolate and rectangular. The current version was invented in 1945 by Jerry Newberg when he was selling ice cream at Forbes Field. (With material from: Wikipedia)
