Lab Made

Lab Made is the first liquid nitrogen ice cream parlor in Hong Kong. As a liquid nitrogen ice cream parlor, Lab Made makes use of the super cold liquid nitrogen, minus 196?, to freeze its ice cream. The advantage of using liquid nitrogen is that, since it is extremely cold, it takes less than a minute for the freezing process necessary for making ice cream. Thus, it gives off a much smoother texture.

The company was founded in 2012 and owned by Ronnie Cheng Hong-wang and Jennifer Chiu, who first fell in love with liquid nitrogen ice cream when they tasted it in England. Captivated by this dessert, the couple returned home, to Hong Kong, and introduced this treat to the city.

Lab Made primarily offers liquid nitrogen ice cream with four different flavors which change every fortnight, in order to attract new customers and retain the old. Some of their special flavors offered in the past included apple crumble, Hong Kong crispy toast, mooncake, sticky toffee pudding and strawberry cheesecake.

History

Cheng and Chiu established Lab Made on 17 July 2012, with their first shop opened at 6th Brown Street in Tai Hang, Hong Kong.

Founder

Lab Made is founded by Cheng and Chiu. Cheng decided to start his own business after a friend of his introduced him to liquid nitrogen ice cream. He was taken aback by this innovative method of creating ice cream, as well as the fine texture it possesses. Hence, he wanted to bring this idea of making ice cream with liquid nitrogen back to Hong Kong. However, according to the South China Morning Post, he endured a lot of pressure from his family, who were not as optimistic as he on his dream--to quit his job, abandon his chance of almost getting a British passport and venture off to Hong Kong.
