The Brand

Science Couldn’t Taste Better
Sub Zero Ice Cream & Yogurt’s unique flash freezing process harnesses both science and the culinary arts to create the smoothest, freshest ice cream you’ve ever tasted.

Smooth and Creamy
Unlike most ice creams that are whipped full of air and hardened for hours in a freezer, our ice cream is frozen on the spot in 15 seconds or less. This means ice crystals don’t have a chance to grow which results in the smoothest, creamiest ice cream around, even with bases like soy or rice milk!

Trillions of Flavors – Literally
Since we have such a large selection of flavors and mix-ins, our customers aren’t limited to 20 or 30 choices — they’re limited to over one trillion. We cater to all dietary restrictions, tastes and preferences since the customer can choose the base, flavors and mix-ins.

Catering
Our fresh ingredients and freezing process make our catering an affordable option since nothing is pre-made. We don’t require electricity so our table or trailer can be set up anywhere!

Tasty Education
Our frozen treats are the sweetest science experiments around. We make a huge effort to visit local schools and science programs to show off our crazy chemistry skills and help kids warm up to science!
