The Popsicle was invented by an
11 year
who kept it secret for
18 years.
The inventor was Frank Epperson
who, in 1905, left a mixture of powdered soda and water out on the porch, which contained a stir stick.
That night, temperatures in San Francisco reached record low temperature.
When he woke the next morning, he discovered that it had frozen to the stir stick,
creating a fruit flavored ice treat that he named the epsicle.
18 years later he patented it and called it the Popsicle.
