Rocky Road: the dessert born from the Great Depression
Original: The stock market crash, the Great Depression & the legend of Rocky Road
The legend of Rocky Road ice cream traces back to the 1929 stock market crash that triggered the Great Depression. As the story goes, Oakland, California ice cream maker William Dreyer mixed in nuts and marshmallows to create a treat that offered small comfort in hard times. The tale is being revisited as a reminder of how the era still shapes popular culture.
Why now: Financial nostalgia and market jitters are renewing interest in stories tying today's economy to the Great Depression era.
