Terrible use for ice cream too, actually. Flash freezing it and not whipping it at the same time totally ruins ice cream.

Ah brick of frozen milk... large ice crystals to crunch on and a surface like concrete. My favorite kind of ice cream

Properly flash-frozen ice cream is actually very smooth since the ice crystals are very small. The water freezes before it has a chance to form large crystals.

Neat. I mean makes sense considering dip n dots

[โ€“] Willy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

wouldn't you just get a huge dipping dot?

Haha probably, but it was the only thing I could think of that people would want to be cold faster. Maybe some other desserts, like lemon meringue or banana cream pies.
