   I was searching with the RLG Cultural Resources database.

DILL PICKLE--The RLG shows a "Dill Pickle" song, about 1906.  Merriam-Webster has 1904 for "dill pickle" and OED has 1906.  It's found earlier in the NEW YORK TIMES, 14 December 1895, pg. 14:  "Charles Sharpegger, Jr., importer of German dill pickles and manufacturer of sauerkraut, at 220 West Street."

NEAPOLITAN ICE CREAM--M-W and OED have 1895.  This is from the RLG database, which takes it from the Library of Congress's American Memory database (www.loc.gov):


Neapolitan ice cream ... The subscriber takes this method to inform the lovers of rare confectionary, that he is manufacturing an entire new article of ice cream, which far surpasses anything in that line ever offered in this city ... E. S. Colton. [Boston 1868].
