Each year that I attend the International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP) annual meeting, there is the Oscars of our own making. The stars are those that have written and published books in 2009 in many different categories. And this year was a very exciting year for food history as the very first award was given in the category of Culinary History. The three finalists in this new category were: Of Sugar and Snow: A History of Ice Cream Making by Jeri Quinzio, From Demon to Darling: A Legal History of Wine in America by Richard Mendelson and Chocolate-History, Culture, and Heritage edited by Louis Evan Grivetti and Howard-Yana Shapiro. And the winner was-
Of Sugar and Snow: A History of Ice Cream Making!!!!!!
