Did you know the creamsicle was created by an 11-year-old? In 1905, Frank Epperson mixed some sugary soda powder with water and left it out overnight. It was a cold night, and the mixture froze. He called his discovery the “epsicle” which later became known as a popsicle, creamsicle, and dreamsicle!
