It does not melt into water like regular ice. It sublimates to a gas when it warms up, making it a lot less messy to keep next to your ice cream.

How long will dry ice keep ice cream frozen?

Dry ice can keep ice cream frozen for several hours, typically between 4 to 10 hours, depending on the quantity of dry ice used, the insulation of the container, and the ambient temperature. For best results, using about 5 to 10 pounds of dry ice for a standard cooler-sized container can help maintain the ice cream's frozen state longer. It's important to handle dry ice with care, as it can cause skin burns.

Ice cream is usually kept in a freezer, but if it is to be kept cold when camping, boating, or for a picnic, dry ice is readily available from dealers usually listed in a telephone book or on the internet in most cities and towns.
