All I could find was that the first frozen desserts were first invented by the Chinese and Arabs over 2,000 years ago. In the 12th century because of Marco Polo the Italian kingdom encountered the first real recipes for ice cream when he brought an ice cream maker from China. How long China had one I couldn't find out.
It was first sold in Paris by a Sicilian named Procopio di Coltelli in 1678.

The hand-cranked churn, which still used ice and salt for cooling, was invented by an American named Nancy Johnson in 1846, making production possible on site and avoiding the problem of continuous chilling between production and consumer. Ice cream became a popular item for the first time. The world's first commercial ice cream factory was opened in Baltimore, Maryland in 1851, by Jacob Fussell, a dairy farmer. An unstable demand for his milk led him to mass produce ice cream. This allowed the previously expensive concoction to be offered in the city at reduced prices. Fussell opened ice cream parlors as far west as Texas. Many were still around well into the 20th century. Fussell later sold his business to Borden.
The development of industrial refrigeration by German engineer Carl von Linde during the 1870s eliminated the need to cut and store natural ice and when the continuous-process freezer was perfected in 1926, allowed commercial mass production of ice cream and the birth of the modern ice cream industry.
The most common method for producing ice cream at home is to use an ice cream maker, in modern times generally an electrical device that churns the ice cream mixture while cooled inside a household freezer, or using ice and salt. A newer method of making home-made ice cream is to add liquid nitrogen to the mixture while stirring it using a spoon or spatula.

Ice cream is a traditional dish, what we see today as ICE CREAM is a modern version of what the old time British used to eat, when it snowed they use to put cream mixed with sugar and keep in snow overnight, it used to freeze and they ate in the morning.There is no such person on record who invented it. The name ICE CREAM confirms all I said.

The Chinese, and Near Eastern cultures were said to have figured out a method for concocting frozen treats. However, it was in ancient Rome, that they would gather snow from the mountains and mix it with milk, honey, fruit and nuts to make said "ice cream"

Egyptians took advantage of this phenomenon by placing wide, shallow bowls filled with water outside during the cool nights. As some water quickly evaporated, the remaining water cooled, forming ice... from 4000 years ago when the Egyptians mixed honey with crushed ice...http://www.freemaninstitute.com/Gallery/RTGpix1.htm

no one. it has been experimented with ever since freezing became practical, and one improvement led to the next until now when we have it nearly perfect
