OLD AND GROWING!
In 1925, Casper Merrill took the milk and cream from the family milk cows and made the "original" Ice Cream Nut Sundae on a Stick in a ten-gallon milk can. He sold them at the local 4th of July celebration, and people wanted more! Soon after, Casper developed his original FatBoy Ice Cream Sandwich, a much larger than usual ice cream novelty that earned its name.
