Ice Cream
Ice cream often touches sweet, fleeting pleasure and the happy success of things already begun — though it can sour or melt away. The dream may ask what enjoyable thing is going well for you, whether the delight you're savouring will hold or slip into stagnation, and how to relish a sweetness that, by its nature, won't last long.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for ice cream, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream that you are eating ice cream, foretells you will have happy success in affairs already undertaken. To see children eating it, denotes prosperity and happiness will attend you most favorably.
For a young woman to upset her ice cream in the presence of her lover or friend, denotes she will be flirted with because of her unkindness to others. To see sour ice cream, denotes some unexpected trouble will interfere with your pleasures. If it is melted, your anticipated pleasure will reach stagnation before it is realized.
