Rapid cryogenic freezing reduces ice crystal size, improving dessert mouthfeel.
Origin: Japanese, Western, Scandinavian (Traditional to modern) — Japan, Western world, Scandinavia
See full technique reference →During rapid freezing, water molecules nucleate at high rates, forming numerous small ice crystals that are then stabilized by proteins and fats. The high cooling rate limits crystal growth, while sugar depresses the freezing point, further controlling crystal size.
Primary Reaction
Freezing of water into ice crystals
