Liquid Nitrogen Ice Creams in Jakarta

Liquid nitrogen ice creams joint are slowly growing their roots in the city of Jakarta, and fortunately for me, I've hopped them all and actually trying them all myself! and here I am doing the judgement *hammers knock*.

Short explanation about Liquid Nitrogen ice creams, the real difference that you can see from the common ice creams is probably the making process. Liquid Nitrogen is used in the production process to freeze the ice cream scratch. I sometimes feel that the biggest excitement is looking at those mystique smoke on the production process, they're just lust for the eyes.

Here are my guide to Jakarta's Liquid Nitrogen Ice Creams!
(This list is sorted on alphabetical order)

Elicxir Artisan Gelato is one damn unique Liquid Nitrogen ice cream in town, because basically they are currently nomadent, meaning they have no official store and they're open by exclusive orders or special events. I heard there are plans for the future about the official outlet (crossed fingers for that). I have tried their Avocado Matcha ice cream and it's pretty good, the ice cream texture is smooth and the flavor's bold. FYI, the owner of this ice cream brand is Indonesian fashion blogger, Jenifer Patricia, you can read here blog here
Kitchen Aid must be cashing in! I notice each and every brand is using this for the mixer, meaning it's awesome!

Freeze Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream in Mall Taman Anggrek is the new player in the game. Located at the 4th floor, just across Fish N' Co, you can have the ice creams while having the view of the sky rink one floor below. Their ice creams are smooth, sort of light in flavor, but one negative comment about this ice cream is the fact that it melts so quickly.

For me, it's the best Liquid Nitrogen ice cream brand in town! I feel like they take this concept seriously, and don't take this liquid nitrogen thing for granted. I watched myself all the measuring, the fresh fruits and the hygiene during the process. All staffs were wearing googles and gloves for self safety and hygiene (certain brand doesn't wear any of that but I freaking have my eyes on those certain things, but I won't name names).

Such an eyegasmic view.

Recommended menu is this Dark Chocolate Gelato. Perfect! All recipes straight from Italy.

Ice creams from scratch, the texture, the flavor and the consistency are just gorgeous. LIN is probably the only brand among the four mentioned on this post that has the longest "surviving" period, meaning the ice cream do not melt even after a few minutes *clap hands*


I made my own gelato with the help of the owner/expert herself, Ms. Astrid :). FYI my gelato rocks!

Ron's Laboratory

Ron's Laboratory is a new gamer in this Liquid Nitrogen business fiesta, located in Grand Indonesia Shopping Town Jakarta, this ice cream house has a pretty unique laboratory concept supported by fascinating interior and its creations as well. Some of my favorites from Ron's are Dark Chocolate and Avocado Coffee, especially the second one because it has a very unique presentation and tasty flavor. However, it has the same case as Freeze, the ice creams melt so fast, it's like within seconds.



Whenever and wherever there is new Nitrogen ice creams coming up, I'll update it to the list, and ehm *clear throats*, if they make it to the eatandtreats cut! Please help me updated incase you know new Nitrogen ice cream outlets in town, I'll rush my ass to the crib!

Peace and see ya!
