Ice cream is a frozen dessert containing cream, sugar and flavouring.
History[]
On 23 June, 1991 while at the zoo for Dudley Dursley's birthday, Vernon bought Dudley and Piers Polkiss each large chocolate ice creams.[3] Rubeus Hagrid bought ice cream (chocolate and raspberry with chopped nuts) for Harry Potter during his visit to Diagon Alley during that same year.[6]
It was also served at the Welcoming Feast in 1991, 1994, 1995 and 1996.
In 1992, when Dobby destroyed the pudding made by Petunia Dursley, she "dug some ice-cream out of the freezer" as a substitute dessert, but the Masons did not stick around.[7] Later that year, Harry bought three strawberry and peanut butter ice creams, one each for himself, Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger, while on a trip to Diagon Alley.[5]
Ice cream was sold at Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour in Diagon Alley,[1] until Fortescue's disappearance in 1996.[8]
No Melt Ice Cream was sold at Honeydukes.[2]
During Horace Slughorn's Slug Club meetings, he served ice cream.[9]
This dessert was served at the Luchino Caffe, an all-night Italian café on Tottenham Court Road in London, where it cost £1.50. The choice of flavours were chocolate, strawberry, cherry, pistachio and vanilla.[4]
Behind the scenes[]
