Sub-Zero Anti-Griddle Party

We had a nice turn out for my pre-birthday sub-zero party. We made the ghetto version of a anti-griddle using a $5 block of dry ice and a metal tray. The tray quickly drops to a very cold temperature near -80C after being placed on the dry ice. There is a initial nails on chalkboard audible racket. I'm not sure if it's the metal contracting or just the sounds of dry ice scratching the metal. We flash froze different ingredients into popsicles. We found a few recipes that worked pretty well. These are the favorites. I'm looking forward to trying this again on a hot summer day.

 

honey + lime chipotle

blood orange + cream + honey

balsalmic vinegar + vanilla + cream chocolate ganache

kashi cereal adds a nice puffed crunchy texture

pretzels sticks can be used in place of popsicle sticks for handles
