Dry Ice Gelo Seco

One of those strangely difficult things to find in Brasília is dry ice. You never think about it… until suddenly you actually need it and discover that not every supermarket magically stocks frozen smoke rocks. 

Whether it is for keeping food or drinks frozen during a long trip, transporting temperature-sensitive products, making cocktails look dramatic, or some kind of science experiment that may or may not alarm your neighbors, dry ice can be surprisingly useful.

After asking around, the place most people seem to recommend is Dry Ice Gelo Seco in Núcleo Bandeirante.

They mainly supply dry ice for both personal and commercial use, and from what I have heard they are reliable and straightforward to deal with, which is honestly half the battle sometimes.

You can either pick it up directly from their location or arrange delivery, which is helpful considering dry ice is not exactly something you want melting away while stuck in Brasília traffic.
