The Best Gelato Ice Cream Maker and Equipment in the UK from Carpigiani If you own or run a cafe, restaurant or ice cream parlour business that sells or is thinking about selling ice cream then this article will help you decide on the best type of ice cream for you and the best and give you more information on the most e icient and best ice cream and artisan gelato machines available in the UK.
So what di erent types of ice cream are there? You may think this is a silly question, however, there are quite a few to choose from when you are thinking about ice cream being included in your menu for your customers and many in our list below that you won’t have ever heard of, or maybe wouldn’t consider serving to your customers. Gelato Ice Cream – Gelato is the Italian word for ice cream. It starts out with a similar custard base as ice cream but has a higher proportion of milk and a lower proportion of cream and eggs or no eggs at all. It is churned at a much slower rate, incorporating less air and leaving the gelato denser than normal ice cream. Gelato ripples and forms imperfect scoops because it is so much denser than standard ice cream and due to its higher volume of milk to the cream ratio as well as its churning rate. The flavour is more intense and purer than other ice cream and that is down to the little or no egg in the mixture. The intense flavour and flexibility to create di erent flavours have seen a growing trend in customers looking for gelato outlets. So Serve Ice Cream – A summertime classic in the UK and you will o en see ice cream vans parked in parks, at festivals or driving around the neighbourhood sounding their known ice cream van tune, rain or shine. Many customers will use the old trade name of Mr Whippy to describe ‘so serve’. More and more businesses are now utilising so serve ice cream machines to serve their customers ice cream in a cone, pot or as a sundae. So -serve ice cream was first created in the 1930’s and gets its smooth and creamy texture from the air that’s introduced as the ingredients are frozen. So serve ice cream is generally lower in milk-fat (3% to 6%) compared to normal ice cream (10% to 18%) and is produced at a temperature of about −4 °C compared to
standard ice cream which is stored at −15 °C. So Serve ice cream is normally only available in chocolate and vanilla flavours and is most o en served with sweet sauces, fruit, sweet and or savoury sprinkles on the top. So Scoop Ice Cream – This is a British favourite all year round too. You can choose from many di erent and exotic flavours as well as your standard strawberry, chocolate and vanilla and there are so many delicious toppings you can add to give your customers taste buds a tingle and send their senses flying. Frozen Yoghurt – Frozen Yoghurt is a growing trend in the UK as it is based on the model of so serve ice cream but is lower in fat o ering many tangy tastes and flavours which everyone enjoys. The di erence in the ingredients of frozen yoghurt to ice cream is the cream, so the nutritional di erence is the fat content. One cup of regular vanilla ice cream contains 275 calories, 5 grams of protein, 31 grams of carbohydrates, 15 grams of fat and 9 grams of saturated fat. Ounce for ounce, frozen yoghurt has fewer calories and is lower in saturated fat than regular ice cream. If you take the same amount of frozen yogurt then one cup of regular vanilla frozen yoghurt contains 221 calories, 5 grams of protein, 38 grams of carbohydrates, 6 grams of fat and 4 grams of saturated fat. Yougurt or Yoghurt? The traditional British spelling is yoghurt, with an “h”, however, more and more manufacturers and retailers are using the American spelling, without the ‘h’. Sorbet – There is no dairy in this frozen treat, making it denser and much richer in taste than traditional ice cream also making it an option for anyone who has a dairy intolerance. Sometimes alcohol is added to the recipe to lower the freezing temperature and create its popular, so , icy texture, so always check this before you serve to a child. It has been around in the UK, France, and Australia for a long time and is becoming more popular in America. It is a popular choice as a dessert as it freshens and zings your pallet. Sorbet is made from sweetened water with flavouring (typically fruit juice or fruit purée, wine, liqueur or, sometimes, honey).
and now onto the more exotic types of ice cream from around the world……. Kulfi – Ice cream in India is more like custard and it’s thick and dense texture takes longer to melt, making it perfect for serving on a stick. Flavours are more on the savoury side, with options like sa ron, cardamom, and rose. Faloodeh – This looks like a savoury noodle dish and is in fact, ice cream from Iran. Blended with a mixture of rose water, sugar, and lime juice, these rice noodles are a perfect frozen treat in the hot and sunny climate.
Dondurma – Dondurma is Turkish ice cream and is nothing like you have had before. The mixture includes salep flour and mastic, which makes it thick and chewy. It is consistently churned and pulled to keep its texture and you can be mesmerized watching street vendors do this. Granita – Came from Sicily and this icy treat is a blend of sugar, water, and various flavourings from fruit, nuts, and herbs, such as; strawberry, almond, and mint. Its crystallized texture makes it best for eating with a spoon from a bowl or cup. Mochi – Mochi comes from Japan and dollops of ice cream are wrapped in sweet and sticky rice dough so you can eat it with your hands. You won’t believe it but these bites which are most o en available in green tea, red bean, vanilla, and strawberry are totally addictive. Rolled Ice Cream – Rolled-up strips of ice cream is a very common street food in Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, and the Philippines. The entire process of pouring the ice cream mixture, chopping, mixing and adding flavours such as strawberries and cookies, and then perfectly spiralling the ice cream only takes the professionals about two minutes. If you go you must try this as you really won’t be disappointed. Snow Cream – Ice cream in Taiwan is a dish of heavenly, flu y sweets. A er freezing a giant cube of milk and water, ice cream makers shave it into minutely thin strips and then top it with boba, fresh fruit, sweetened condensed milk, chocolate, and more. Italian Ice – O en confused with sherbet is otherwise known as “water ice”. It is fruit-based and made by the same process as standard ice cream, freezing and mixing the ingredients. It contains no dairy, although sometimes egg white is included and because of this, it has got a velvetysmooth texture. Typical flavours include lemon, cherry, blue raspberry, and watermelon.

Gelato Ice Cream Machines The definition of Artisan is “a worker in a skilled trade, especially one that makes things by hand”. Today machines help us, but the philosophy remains. Gelato is healthier and lower in fat than standard ice cream, made in small batches using fresh, natural ingredients and is served at a warmer temperature for a more intense flavour. To produce good gelato you need quality, raw ingredients and to follow a key process: There are 5 core steps, in the process of making artisan gelato: 1. Pasteurisation is a heat treatment that ensures the safety of the ingredients and preservation of the gelato. A er heating, the liquid mixture remains at an elevated temperature for the time necessary to guarantee the process; then cooled rapidly before being stored at a maximum of +4°c. 2. Homogenisation Gelato is produced by continuously stirring a mixture containing milk, sugar and natural flavourings as it freezes. A mixer is an indispensable tool for mixing, homogenising and di using any solid or fibrous ingredients into the mix. This helps obtain a consistent and uniform base. 3. Production Any syrup or flavours that are required are introduced into the cylinder and mixed through with the agitator. During this phase, the machine incorporates air into the mix and begins to freeze as the base makes contact with the side of the cylinder, forming tiny crystals which give gelato its smooth characteristic. 4. Blast Freeze The gelato is extracted from the machine at -7 to -9°c and should then be placed in a freezer capable of further reducing the core temperature to -12°c as quickly as possible. This helps to keep the structure, texture and taste of the gelato while in storage or when served. 5. Store, Display and Serve Carpigiani provides a wide range of display cabinets, each one perfect for displaying your artisan gelato safely and attractively.
