KS1 Activity Sheet The Ice Man FACT: Ice is frozen water. Water turns into ice when the temperature is COLD - below 0 degrees Celsius. Ice turns into water then it is WARM – above 0 degrees. 150 years ago, Victoria was Queen of England. There were no fridges or freezers and ice melted. This man came to London from Switzerland to sell food. Can you find his name in the museum? Write it here: ……………………………………………………… He started off by selling hot chocolate but people wanted something cold in the summer – ice cream. He had a clever idea. Look at the display. What did he do? ……………………………………………………………………………………….. ………………………………………………………………………………………… www.canalmuseum.org.uk KS1 Activity Sheet The Ice Man Here are five pictures of the ice. The word boxes are in the wrong order. Can you put the right number with each set of words? Picture …… The ice was delivered round London by cart. 1 Picture …… The ice was unloaded from the ships by crane and moved by canal boat to the ice warehouse. 2 Picture …… The ice was cut from lakes using big saws. 3 Picture …… The ice was sent down the mountain on an ice railway like a huge slide. 4 Picture …… The ice was loaded onto wooden ships to be taken across the sea to London. 5 www.canalmuseum.org.uk KS1 Activity Sheet The Ice Man When the ice got to London, Carlo Gatti had to stop it from melting. Around 150 years ago he built a warehouse with a deep hole to put the ice in. This is called an ice well. The warehouse is now the London Canal Museum and you can look down the well. Think of four words to describe the well and write them here: ………………………….…… …………………………………….. ………………………….…… …………………………………….. Have a go at drawing the well with ice in it – look at the model to help you imagine it. www.canalmuseum.org.uk .

Gatti, in its way, is not so much of London but of England, and of all the world. G EORGE R OBERT S IMS, Living London, 1900 À sa manière, Gatti n’appartient pas tant à Londres qu’à l’Angleterre, et au monde entier. Carlo Gatti (vers 1870) 1 NICOLAS Carlo Gatti converted his premises into confectioners’ shops and cafés. {…} Carlo’s establishments were an immediate hit. {…} Ices had previously been a luxury for the idle rich, and this was the ﬁrst time in England that they became available to the poor. Again he enjoyed spectacular success. On a sunny Summer day, he insisted to a parliamentary board of enquiry a few years later, he sold thousands of ices to people who strolled across Hungerford Bridge. P ETER B ARBER A Curious Colony , Leicester Square and the Swiss Carlo Gatti avait transformé ses locaux en conﬁseries et en cafés. {…} Ces établissements ont eu un succès retentissant. {…} Jusque-là, les glaces avaient été un luxe réservé aux riches oisifs, c’était la première fois en Angleterre qu’elles étaient à la portée des pauvres. Ici aussi, le succès a été spectaculaire. Par un dimanche ensoleillé, racontait-il à une commission d’enquête parlementaire quelques années plus tard, il vendait des milliers de glaces aux passants qui traversaient le pont de Hungerford. — 3— I « O S IGNUR !

So, it is propitious that former Swiss Ambas- sador to United States Dr. Martin Dahinden, who is a seasoned Swiss diplomat with exquisite tastes and a vast reservoir of knowledge and experience wrote a book Beyond Muesli and Fondue, which describes Swiss contributions to culinary history.

Lick It, Michael Petry, Catalogue Essay
Lick it Most of us have seen a glass microscope slide, even if only on one of the many CSI television episodes, usually covered in blood, mucus, sperm or hair. Imagine licking it. Our recent ancestors did, or at least they licked similar licks of glass that carried on them the smallest taste of the precious substance that was ice cream. Imagine a hot day, and the cool sweet flavour on your tongue. You might be hanging from a strap in the over crowded, smelly and terribly hot London Underground, with your eyes closed thinking of refreshment, of exit, of cool. We still can’t afford a civilized mass transport system, so image only being able to afford a lick of ice cream, off a glass slide. Well that was your lot until the mass shipment of ice from places like Norway in the mid 1800’s allowed the general populace to have what only the upper classes and previously only the aristocracy was able to afford. It is said that the Chinese invented the idea of ice cream over a thousand years ago, and it took the Italians to make the leap to the addition of milk, but it took Agnes Marshall’s (the Heston Blumenthal of her day) edible ice cream cones in 1894 to make it an integral part of summer. Many flavours and styles have seen the population as a whole become addicted to it, and even Blumenthal’s bacon and eggs ice cream hasn’t stopped our desire to lick it. Before the invention of freezers, huge quantities of ice had to be stored underground or in ice houses.

The Rise and Decline of the Anglo-Norwegian Ice Trade, 1850-1920

Although new technology eventually allowed the production of artificial ice, natural ice retained a strong market position until World War I. This dissertation investigates the rise and fall of the Anglo-Norwegian ice trade, including the reasons behind the Norwegian success (comparative advantage, proximity to Britain and long-standing trade relations with Britain) and the rapid and persistent growth of British consumption of ice (high urbanisation, and growth of food-processing industries). Furthermore, it seeks to explain the continued use of natural ice long after the introduction of artificial ice and mechanical refrigeration. Seasonal aspects and supply shocks were instrumental in promoting technological change, but the diffusion of the new technologies varied across industries, and was affected by economic and social factors.
