So, what exactly is astronaut ice cream? It’s simple: freeze-dried ice cream is real ice cream!

Frozen in time, yet not frozen in temperature. They take real ice cream, freeze it to -40F degrees, then vacuum dry to remove more than 98% of the water. It’s ice cream that melts in your mouth, without the mess. Ready to Eat, there is no refrigeration or rehydration required. This is the perfect treat for hiking, camping, school snacks, kids’ parties or to enjoy as an everyday dessert.

Astronaut Foods is the original source for freeze-dried astronaut ice cream and it’s the very same ice cream developed for NASA in the 1960’s for the early Mercury Missions.
From the very beginning Astronaut Ice Cream has been proudly made in Boulder, CO, USA. 
Inside the pouch the product paper is slit to facilitate the freeze-drying process. Your ice cream may be a little bit broken. That’s okay! Breakage naturally occurs during the freeze-drying process and does not negatively impact the product.
A delicious, crunchy, yet creamy sweetness that melts in your mouth, sandwiched between two chocolatey wafer cookies.
