Who knew! There’s even a national day for people who fancy having an extra dessert.
We have decided to celebrate them all with a look back at some great days from Hartlepool’s past.
Get ready for a feast of custard, chocolate, poetry, books and fitness!
. World Ice Cream Day
Free ice cream for these Fens Primary School pupils in 2006. Who can tell us more about this great event? And while you're at it, why not put World Ice Cream Day in your diary. It is on July 17. Photo: FLR
