Soft serve concepts: machines and operation
Plan a soft serve concept for your business
A soft serve concept combines the right machine with ingredients, accessories and a realistic operating plan. Start with demand, peak hours, portion size and selling price at your location. These determine the required machine capacity and running costs. Also check floor space, electrical supply, ventilation and the workflow for filling, cleaning and serving.
Compare soft serve machines for your business and use our machine selection guide. Find suitable mix in the soft serve range. For the investment, compare leasing and hire purchase.
Our soft serve machines for every need
We understand that every business is unique. That is why we offer a wide range of soft serve machines to meet your specific requirements.
Countertop machines: compact and efficient
Our countertop machines are ideal for smaller businesses such as cafés, kiosks and bakeries, or as an addition to an existing menu. They offer compact construction and easy operation.
Floor-standing machines: professional performance
For larger sales areas or foodservice operations with higher production volumes, we offer powerful floor-standing machines that deliver reliable results even under intensive use.
Self-service soft serve: plan the workflow
Location and serving workflow
With a self-service soft serve machine, customers dispense their own portions. Plan easy access to cups, spoons and, where appropriate, toppings, plus staff for refilling, cleaning and assistance. Check the dimensions and connection requirements of the specific model. Operating hours depend on your location and staffing arrangements.
Machine care and accessories
Pasteurisation and cleaning procedures depend on the model. Follow the operating manual for the selected machine and the instructions for the mix you use. Heat treatment does not replace the required cleaning and checks. We can help match dispensers, cabinets and other accessories to your installation.
Costs and portion planning for your soft serve business
Use amounts excluding VAT throughout: divide the cost of the prepared mix batch, including required ingredients, by the servings you can actually sell from it. Start-up losses and leftovers are then reflected in the yield. Add the cup or cone, spoon, toppings and other volume-dependent costs per serving. Selling price excluding VAT minus variable cost gives the contribution per serving. Multiply it by servings sold during a defined period and compare the result with the remaining costs for that same period. Count labour, electricity, cleaning, maintenance and financing only once each. Compare cautious, middle and stronger sales scenarios using the same portion size and cost basis. Contribution is not yet profit; check actual yield and demand in your own business.
Simple operation with a ready-made mix system
To keep operation as simple as possible, you do not need to create and mix your own recipes. We supply a ready-made soft serve mix in a Tetra Pak.
Our ready-made soft serve mix is:
Homogenised for consistent texture
Storage and preparation according to the product label
Follow storage instructions before and after opening
Plan clean handling and machine care
Supplied with a suitable remaining shelf life
Hygiene and quality assurance
Pasteurisation and cleaning for the specific model
Check whether the selected machine includes heat treatment and which procedures its operating manual specifies. Cleaning intervals and mix handling depend on the machine and product. Include the required daily checks, cleaning steps and staff training in your operating workflow.
Quality control and safety
Check the mix, temperature displays and machine condition as specified by the manufacturer. Train your team in filling, operation and cleaning. Our advice supports machine selection and instruction in its operation.
Versatile uses for your soft serve concept
Additional menu options depend on the machine, ingredients and preparation method. Check mix suitability and the necessary steps for each product:
Soft serve shakes
Iced coffee with ice cream
Iced chocolate with ice cream
Ice cream sundae
Frozen yogurt
Packaged ice cream
These varied uses give you the flexibility to respond to different customer preferences and seasonal demand.
