Hard Ice Cream Display and Holding
Dipping cabinets are a staple item for any restaurant, cafe, or ice cream shop serving hard ice cream. Visual dipping cabinets typically have sliding glass lids for quick access to product while allowing for customers to easily view product without opening the lid. Horizontal dipping cabinets feature a stainless steel top with dual access removable lids (good for both storage and display), while chest freezers are perfect for storing extra gallons of ice cream after your initial bulk purchases.

Gelato Display
While not technically a soft-serve ice cream, gelato certainly is a more delicate frozen treat. Serve gelato, sorbet, and Italian ice in these specialized dipping cabinets. Gelato is typically displayed in rectangular drop-in pans within the case, and these pans can be switched out and rotated as needed. Top each pan with a label, and you’ve got yourself a well-organized gelato display!

Instead, shock freeze at 0°F or +10°F; the water in the ice cream is transformed into micro-crystals that maintain initial quality intact and do not ruin the structure. Walk-in freezers can then store these frozen products as well for long-ter

Accesories
Portioning tools like an ice cream disher help to not only ensure similar scoop sizes but are also great at creating a smooth, rounded scoop every time. Be sure to store these in your dipper well between use. Dippers utilize defrosted liquid in the handle for easier scooping. When your ice cream dishers and dippers are not in use, you’ll want to store them in a filled dipper well. This keeps the scoop clean while ensuring that ice cream transfer between flavors is kept to a minimum. Liquid or ge
