Creamistry, the newest ice cream concept in Town & Country Village is more than a sweet treat, it’s a scientific experience. Visitors to the Memorial District are already excited about the shop. The grand opening on February 10 saw lines stretching down the sidewalk toward the Beltway with customers eager to craft a made-to-order creation using liquid nitrogen.
Owner Mohammad Albanaa is a civil engineer from Qatar who relocated to Houston last February. He signed the franchise agreement on March 2017, planning to open his store September 1, 2017. Unfortunately, Hurricane Harvey delayed the opening until February 2018. Albanaa said despite all he went through he recognizes that helping his customers and making them happy is what is most important: "You own your own business, serving people, seeing the smiles on children's faces, this is the most important thing. I love [it].”
Creamistry was originally founded in California in 2013. They now have franchises in Arizona, Texas, Louisiana and California where customers design and Creamologists create one-of-a-kind desserts.
Start your creation with a base - signature or organic dairy, non-dairy coconut or sorbet. From there, pick a flavor from options including Cinnamon Toast Crunch®, Matcha Green Tea, Cookie Butter and Caramel. Next choose toppings from a selection of candies, cereals, fruit, nuts and sauces like mochi, rainbow sprinkles, cheesecake bites and marshmallow cream.
Creamologists mix the custom elections and that’s when the science happens: they freeze the conconction with liquid nitrogen. Clouds billow out of the mixer, a product of the checmical reaction that produces decadently creamy results and an exciting visual experience.
The nitrogen freezes at -321F, so cold the ice cream has to be warmed before it can be scooped, topped and served . The rapid freezing, however results in ice cream that is incredibly creamy and rich in flavor.
Want to elevate dessert? Add a vanilla cone or a brownie or indulge in a bowl crafted out of chocolate. Caffine afficinados can sample the Creamistry take on affogato or sip on a Nitro Float.
