I would guess vanilla since ice cream is made from frozen vanilla sauce (creme anglaise) that can be flavored.

Vanillia

On July 23, 1904, Charles E. Minches of St. Louis, Missouri conceived the idea of filling a pastry cone with two scoops of ice cream, thereby inventing the ice cream cone. The walk-away cone made its debut later that year at the St. Louis World's Fair.

The origins of ice cream can be traced back to the 4th century B.C. The Roman emperor Nero ordered ice to be brought from the mountains and combined with fruit toppings. In the 13th century, Marco Polo learned of the Chinese method of creating ice and milk concoctions and brought it back to Europe. Over time, recipes for ices, sherbets, and milk ices evolved and were served in the fashionable Italian and French royal courts. After the dessert was imported to the United States, it was served by George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Dolley Madison.

The use of ice mixed with salt to lower and control the temperature of the mix of ingredients proved a major breakthrough in the creation of ice cream as we know it. The invention of the wooden bucket freezer with rotary paddles facilitated its manufacture.

A Baltimore company first produced and marketed wholesale ice cream in 1851. The treat became both distributable and profitable with the introduction of mechanical refrigeration. The ice cream shop or soda fountain has since become an icon of American culture.

During the 20th century many brands of ice cream were marketed on a large scale in supermarket and branded francised palors. Many new, exotic flavors were developed during this era. In 1997 the idea of "microbatch" ice cream was developed. Borrowing from the success of microbrew beer, this ice cream is painstakingly produced in small batches and sold in limited quantities. The pioneering company in microbatch ice cream was Jeremy's Microbatch Ice Cream. The company was one of the first to sell ice cream on the Internet. Unfortunately, they have apparently met the same fate as many early online businesses and have closed shop.

Now, many people enjoy making their own ice cream at home. It is really quite easy with the aid of devices that improves upon the bucket freezer concept mentioned above. With a low cost unit, families can enjoy fresh made ice cream whenever they wish.

you guys have to go way back. nobody is actually sure, but the persians used to freeze many diffrent items including milk and cream yrs ago. cream was and still is pretty good by itself, so that would be the answer in my logic, but if any flavor would be first it would be HONEY. honey is mentioned too many times in persia and in india where it has been recorded first.
hope this helps

Vanilla of course. Then they came out with the flavors.

When you make icecream there is actually no flavour until you introduce it
