A day dedicated to Chocolate, Marshmallow, nuts, and Ice Cream . How could I not support it! There are several claims to the origins of Rocky Road Ice Cream, the first being William Dreyer, he took inspiration from his partner Joseph Edy’s chocolate candy and made rocky road ice cream.
Dryer used his wife’s sewing scissors to cut up marshmallows and walnuts, then added them to chocolate ice cream. The Claim is George Farren who simply blended a candy bar into chocolate ice cream.
After the stock market crash in 1920's, the ice cream was given the name Rocky Road, in a hope to make people smile during the Great Depression.
