Creamistry to open in Santa Barbara

July 5, 2018

Creamistry, a California-based chain that specializes in liquid nitrogen ice cream, is opening a location Saturday at 935 State St., in Santa Barbara, according to a company press release. 

Bilal Temel, who owns the Bristol Creamistry in Costa Mesa, and recently opened his second location in Woodland Hills, will own and operate the Santa Barbara location. 

The ice cream is made in front of the customer with a lot of billowing smoke thanks to the flash-freezing process. When the liquid nitrogen (-321 degrees Fahrenheit) hits the base it freezes so fast that ice crystals don't have a chance to develop, resulting in a decadently rich and luxuriously creamy ice cream with virtually no overrun, according to the release.

Founded in 2013, the brand has 50 locations.
