In 1881 the first scoop of this very ice cream was in two rivers in Wisconsin served by the druggist Edward Berners. Some say that a customer named George Hallauer ordered an ice cream soda on a Sunday.

In 1892 at Platt and colt pharmacy in Ithaca, the ice cream sundae occurred when the reverend John M. Scotts stopped to order a bowl of ice cream. Chester Platt started preparing the ice cream and didn’t only stop at the scoops of the vanilla ice cream but also added some cherry syrup and topped it with a red cherry on top of it.
The dessert was so delicious and heavenly but didn’t have any name, so since the day was Sunday, the name ‘sundae’ was named for the dish. There is also historical evidence supporting the story in Ithaca.
In 1916, Harold Dean Thayer discovered his sundae with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup drizzled on top of it and marshmallow sauce and peanuts for the garnishing.
