C.C. Brown's Fudge Sauce

The hot fudge sundae, according to L.A. restaurant lore, was created by Clarence Clifton Brown at his Hollywood ice cream parlor C.C. Brown’s in 1906.  Since the closing of that venerable establishment in 1996, the recipe for C.C. Brown’s hot fudge sauce has been kept alive.  As of 2006 Lawry’s The Prime Rib acquired the rights to it.  They currently make, jar, and sell C.C. Brown’s Hot Fudge Sauce at their restaurants and online.

I’m thinking this Good Humor man in Washington, D.C. must’ve had more to offer than just ice cream.  The girls can’t seem to get enough of him.

Here is a great photo taken by Leo Russell of cowboys making ice cream in 1940.  The caption: Farmers freezing ice cream. Pie Town, New Mexico. There is no ice in the town. Two or three farmers have built ice storage houses of wooden blocks, packing the ice in sawdust. When someone makes the thirty or forty mile trip for ice, several families get together for an ice cream party.
