Summary: Next, wholesalers now began to emerge and the industry grew. They produced large quantities of ice cream. New flavors of ice cream came about and children ran after street sellers to get their ice cream. Milkshakes, sundaes and more were sold. Jacob Fussell, a master in wholesaling, taught it to many other people after the civil war. Most sold it with a low butterfat content than in original recipes and so the ice cream was much fluffier, which some customers complained that it felt like they were eating air. The most popular flavor was vanilla, but ice cream was also made with different delicious fruits that gave it taste. Jefferson loved vanilla and it was sold at pleasure gardens. However, all of this did not advance technology for ice cream greatly. Wholesalers encouraged inventors to develop new products. 2 major developments were the centrifugal cream separator, which stopped the need to setting milk aside for 12 to 24 hours, and the centrifugal butterfat tester. Molds became a fashionable thing- people made many designs. Isaac Newton had a famous ice cream parlor. Children's favorite thing was ice cream. Good Humor was a famous ice cream truck. Dairy Queen was famous for their ice cream. Ben and Jerry's homemade was also famous and their first shop was in Vermont.
