Hershey's Ice Cream Features
Hand-Dipped Premium Ice
Cream

The
word was out! In a small Lancaster County farmhouse in Pennsylvania the
Hershey brothers were making the best ice cream available anywhere. They
were faced with the problem of supplying the ever growing dema nd!
Well, it didn't take long for that farmhouse to get pretty crowded with all
that ice cream making paraphernalia! Harrisburg seemed a logical place to
open a "real" manufacturing facility. It was centrally located, making the
monumental job of delivering the perishable dessert just a little bit
easier.
In those early days the ice cream was packed in metal lined wooden
containers originally built by the Hershey brothers. The "route salesmen"
packed ice around the containers to guarantee the freshness and quality of
the ice cream, and set off on their daily delivery rounds to ice cream
parlours around Central Pennsylvania.
Hershey's started then what has become tradition through the last ten
decades: quality ice cream, superior service for the dealers and a real
value for the consumers.
The Great Depression saw the birth of a new era. Hershey's became the first
manufacturer to offer pre-packaged pints of ice cream. Those "carry-out"
pints and half gallons started a whole new tradition in the lives of all
Americans.
The days following World War II moved fast. People were on the run.
Convenience
and ease became household words. Hershey's was on top of the situation with
"On-a-stick" desserts. Popscicles, ice cream sandwiches, SkiHi's - the
novelty business was born and bound for success!
Soon the familiar Hershey Creamery trucks became a familiar sight. "Oh boy!!
Hershey's Ice Cream!" posters decorated soda fountain walls, and the
familiar orange and blue "Best of Everything" Hershey's Ice Cream Packages
lined store coolers and home ice-boxes everywhere.
America's love affair with ice cream was growing, and so was Hershey's!
Expanding, modernizing, and always developing the new treats and flavors to
keep those ice cream lovers happy.
