Deep freeze: Liquid nitrogen ice-cream chill blasts over South Florida

Check out the original article by Miami Herald here

A cold chill is blanketing South Florida. And it’s fueled by liquid nitrogen.

Nitrogen ice cream, which has been steadily growing in popularity the past few years, is made by using liquid nitrogen to flash-freeze the cream base. The speedy process does not allow as many ice crystals to form as traditional freezing methods, creating ultra-creamy ice cream. Instant ice cream also can mean a fresher treat, often without preservatives.

The Voice: Senior Plans to Open Nitrogen Ice Cream Shop In the Georgetown Area

Luisa Santos (COL ’14) is doing what every Georgetown student dreams of doing: ditching her political economy major and opening an ice cream shop in the Georgetown area. But this isn’t your average ice cream; it’s nitrogen ice cream. Nitrogen ice cream is basically just cream and flavors, like most other forms of the dessert, but it uses nitrogen to cool the cream into a solid. Perhaps you might have done this in a science class in high school.
