Here Are a Few Types of Commercial Ice Cream Freezers and Ice Cream Dipping Cabinets to Choose From:
-
Ice Cream Dipping Cabinets
Did you know that for a substance to be considered ice cream it must have a fat content of 10%? This is why ice cream isn’t quite as smooth as gelato tends to be. Because of this fat content, flavors are a bit less intense as the fat blocks the taste buds on the tongue. Ice cream is a creamy classic that many people favor over gelato and there is still a wide range of different flavors offered. An ice cream dipping cabinet acts as a freezer with an open top so ice cream containers are easily accessible. Customers can view individual bins of ice cream in order to choose their preferred flavor. These cabinets take up more space than a soft serve machine but offer a much wider variety of options.
- Gelato Display Cases
Unlike ice cream, gelato is made with more milk than cream. Because of this, gelato’s flavors are strong and immediate. These flavors are often extremely unique – think Rosemary, Lavendar, Cucumber, Chestnut etc. Gelato display cases are sleek and will display your gelato flavors beautifully. These cases also take up a lot more space than a soft serve machine would so they are more of a commitment for your business. Each gelato pan is made of stainless-steel for easy clean up when it comes to switching out flavors.
- Soft Serve Ice Cream Machines
A soft-serve ice cream machine makes it easy for almost any restaurant or business to offer ice cream to their patrons. There is no need to renovate the design of your kitchen or store because soft-serve machines simple sit on top of any counter. Soft-serve ice cream machines are easy to operate because they make ice cream by using pre-made soft serve mixes. Some can even serve frozen yogurt. Although soft-serve ice cream machines are convenient and allow almost any establishment to add ice cream to the menu, there are a few drawbacks. Soft serve machines can usually only accommodate one or two flavors of ice cream and must be cleaned out regularly.
