Collection: Ice Cream & Novelty Freezers

1 product

Ice cream and novelty freezers hold frozen desserts at serving temperature for scooping or self-serve. The current range includes the EFI Versa-Display FICDC-47, a 47" round ice cream dipping cabinet for scoop shops, cafés and dessert counters.

For gelato display and storage cases from Nemox, see Merchandising Refrigerators & Freezers. The full range sits under Refrigeration, Freezing & Ice Equipment.

What's in this collection

  • Dipping cabinets: Display freezers with tubs held under glass so staff can scoop to order, like the EFI FICDC-47.
  • Novelty and back-up freezers: For packaged novelties and back-up tubs, see glass-door freezers in Merchandising and solid-door units in Reach-In Freezers.

What to consider when choosing an ice cream freezer

  • Number of flavours: Count the tubs you want on display and allow space for back-up stock.
  • Scooping vs storage: Dipping cabinets hold product at scooping temperature; storage freezers hold it colder for longer periods.
  • Footprint and access: Check the width and whether staff will work from one side while customers view from the other.
  • Placement: Keep units away from heat sources and direct sun, which make the compressor work harder and can soften product.

Frequently asked questions

What is a dipping cabinet?

A display freezer that holds tubs of ice cream at a scoopable temperature under glass, so customers can see flavours and staff can serve from it.

Do I need a separate storage freezer?

Usually, yes. Back-up tubs and hardening are better handled in a colder storage freezer.

Where can I find gelato display cases?

Nemox gelato display and storage cases are listed in Merchandising Refrigerators & Freezers.
