Classic Freeze-Dried Ice Cream is a pioneering product that combines the nostalgic indulgence of real dairy-based ice cream with the technical precision of freeze-drying. Also known as “Astronaut Ice Cream,” this innovative dessert originated in the aerospace sector and has since evolved into a shelf-stable, ambient-ready snack for global B2B markets.

OEM/Private Label Ready

Manufactured using premium vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice cream bases, our Classic Freeze-Dried Ice Cream is pre-sliced into bite-sized bars or sandwich shapes and vacuum freeze-dried to remove over 98% of its moisture. The result: a crispy, melt-in-your-mouth dessert with a creamy finish, zero refrigeration required.
As a professional freeze-dried ice cream manufacturer, we specialize in wholesale, OEM/ODM, and export-ready packaging formats for importers, travel retailers, novelty brands, and global eCommerce distributors.
