SPM Physics-AHA! Physics Behind Malaysia’s Potong Ice Cream

 


At Malaysia’s night markets, vendors make traditional ice cream without a fridge — just ice cubes and coarse salt. When salt is added, the melting point of ice collapses from 0°C down to –10°C or even –21°C. The ice is forced to melt, absorbing latent heat from the milk inside the iron canister. In minutes, the mixture freezes into a delicious ice pop. This comic captures the AHA moment where physics explains how salt and ice create magic, turning thermal equilibrium and phase change into a sweet treat.
