Another liquid nitrogen ice cream shop has opened in OC. à la minute (yes, all in lower case) uses tanks of the same substance that Creamistry in Irvine and Poof in Buena Park uses to instantly freeze milk, cream and sugar into, well, the stuff you already know by now, made to order under billowing vapor clouds.

The store is located in Old Towne Orange at 117 N Glassell St. and is actually the second à la minute in Southern California. The first has been open awhile in Redlands.
Featured flavors include Strawberry Balsamic and Chocolate Lavender.
