Le procédé comporte le stockage d'au moins une composition emballée dans le dispositif de refroidissement accessible par consommateur à une première température super refroidie et l'augmentation de la température de composition à une seconde température pendant une période de temps dans laquelle au moins une composition emballée ne sera pas enlevée du dispositif de refroidissement accessible par un consommateur, par un consommateur. Au moins une composition emballée comprend une composition sous pression en phase liquide dans un contenant étanche. La composition sous pression comprend un solvant et un soluté sensiblement dissous dans le solvant et est à une pression plus grande que la pression atmosphérique. La composition sous pression reste liquide alors que au moins une composition emballée est maintenue au niveau de la première température super refroidie dans le dispositif de refroidissement accessible par un consommateur et au moins partiellement congelée en réponse au conteneur étanche enlevé du dispositif de refroidissement accessible par un consommateur et ouvert et/ou agité par le consommateur.
