Smoking Cold Ice Cream in Old City

In July I wrote about a rolled ice cream shop in Old City. Tonight I tried another ice cream trend, liquid nitrogen. While rolled ice cream uses a cold stone to freeze the cream, liquid nitrogen ice cream uses, well, liquid nitrogen.

I went to Happily Ever After on Market between Second and Third.

They have a lot of flavors to choose from. I went with mint chocolate.

First the cream goes into a blender.

Then the liquid nitrogen is added.

Finally a small blow torch is used.

The final result is a cup of ice cream.

I can’t say this is better than other ice cream, but it does come with a show.
