 Ice Cream: Ice cream history
Prior to that ice cream was either licked out of a small glass known as a penny lick or taken away wrapped in waxed paper referred to as a hokey pokey (hokey pokey is supposed to have come from the Italian "ecco un poco" "here is a little").
Ice cream making was a closely guarded secret and the knowledge of how to make it would have been a meal ticket for life, which is why the first recipe in English did not appear until 1718.
Ice was shipped into London and other major ports and taken in canal barges down the canals, to be stored in ice houses, from where it was sold to ice cream makers.

 The Mavens' Word of the Day
Hokey Pokey was also the name of a popular ice cream around the same time.
Hocus pocus is also a possible etymology for the name of the Hokey Pokey ice cream, competing with the more dubious derivation from an Italian street vendor's call: "Ecco un po'" (here is a little) or "O che poco" (oh, how little).
The story on the Hokey Pokey's name is not clear at all, but it almost certainly did not come from the adjective we have been discussing (though such a connection would have been appropriate).
