semifrozen
Not fully solid
Semifrozen describes something partially frozen—cold and stiffening but not solid throughout.
The term applies to food in transition: The semifrozen berries were easier to slice.
It also describes desserts meant to be served in this state, like semifreddo, with a texture between ice cream and mousse.
