## Overview

Astronaut Foods Freeze-Dried Ice Cream Sandwiches are a NASA-developed, ready-to-eat dessert featuring real ice cream freeze-dried at -40°F to remove 98% of water.

Perfect for space enthusiasts, outdoor adventurers, or anyone craving a futuristic snack made in the USA.

## Description

These are our two most popular freeze-dried ice cream flavors in one convenient 6-pack, because two melt in your mouth flavors are better than one. Just like the astronauts eat! So, what exactly is astronaut ice cream? It’s simple: freeze-dried ice cream is real ice cream! We use the process of lyophilization, commonly known as freeze-drying, to turn the ice cream you know and love into something truly special. Lyophilization removes 98% of the original water content, and the result is a crunchy, creamy sweetness that melts in your mouth. We use the same process to freeze dry fruits, which brings out the sweetness and adds an unexpected crunch to nature’s candy. Best of all, the freeze-drying process allows fruit to retain all of its nutrition! Since the very beginning, all of our products have been proudly made in the USA. You can find our home base in sunny, beautiful Boulder, CO.

Review: Great teen gift - Such a fun different cool gift! My nephew loves nasa and space right now so he was super excited about these. He said they were delicious and was dipping them in his milk! I was worried they were going to be crumbly but they held up really well! Worth the money to see him excited! They were pretty large too !
Review: Sweet but cute - I used these as party favors for a galaxy themed party. It was a huge hit and kids enjoyed the ice cream. It's a bit sweet but cool for a galaxy party.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding and Fun Snack!
*by C***P on September 10, 2024*

I had purchased these fun astronaut snacks for my boys years ago at a children’s museum & they enjoyed them so much, they requested more! I couldnt find them again, until this year on amazon! The packaging has changed a bit, but, they are as described and exactly what my sons and I fondly remember! Great for imagining and for a teaching tool about space exploration! So, so pleased
