Ice Cream Machines
Do you love a nice bowl or cone of homemade ice cream? With these handy ice machines, you can make artisanal ice cream in no time, without having to go to the ice cream parlour. The machine includes a stirring mechanism and a cooling container. You can make ice cream and yoghurt right at home!

What is a self-freezing ice cream machine?
Within the world of ice cream machines, a self-freezing ice cream machine is a household name. An appliance is self-freezing when it has a built-in cooling unit. This eliminates the need to put the ice cream bowl in the freezer before you can use it. This saves you hours of waiting time, as the bowl usually needs 10 to 12 hours in the freezer. The built-in cooling compressor cools the ice bowl while you use the ice machine. This usually allows you to make ice cream within an hour.
