At Cosmos Ice Cream, the world’s largest ice cream truck, we’re serving up out-of-this-world tastes every time we land. Using liquid nitrogen and state-of-the-art technology, we’re crafting ice cream with flavor unlike anything else, and you may never be able to have it any other way again. Because we freeze our ice cream right when you order it, every serving is unique -- making a trip to Cosmos an experience every time. So come catch us in the community or let us bring the good times right to your event. We’re serving smiles one freeze at a time.
The Truck's Origin
The Cosmos Ice Cream Truck was born as an Airport Shuttle Gillig bus. The bus started its transformation in Brooklyn, NY. Once selected for the build the second floor was added along with a staircase. All remnants inside the cabin were stripped out to make room for a cutting edge Nitrogen Ice Cream kitchen.
Why Use Nitrogen to Make Ice Cream
Liquid Food Grade Nitrogen poured at -321 degrees Fahrenheit freezes the Ice Cream base in a matter of seconds. This prevents ice crystals from forming which is typically found in most commercial ice creams. The quick freezing process leads to a creamy richer Ice Cream without the ice crystal or "overrun" (air pockets created in commercially made ice creams). Just as important, each serving is unique to the ice cream connoisseur ordering it. Once we tasted ice cream made with Nitrogen there was no going back.
