History

The science-food-company Molekyleis Produktionsgesellschaft mbH (Kyl) was founded in 2014 by product designer and marketing specialist David Marx in Berlin. [2] [3] David Marx produces flash-frozen ice using his own technology based on liquid nitrogen, which allows for the popsicles to have a geometric shape. The molekylice is produced at around −200 °C (−328.0 °F). [4] [5]

The molekylice came out of the Science Kitchen - an independent food lab based in Berlin that specialized in molecular gastronomy by inventing and developing food products for a sustainable, vegan-friendly future. [6] The Molekylice is produced in Los Angeles (under the brand name DreamPops) and China (under the brand name BOOM). [7]

The apparent lack of any visible company activity caused major uproar among investors accusing David Marx of fraudulent behavior. [1]
