When it comes to ice cream cones, there are three main types on the market, each with unique characteristics and production requirements.
The first is the sugar cone. Known for its sweet taste and crispy texture, it is tapered and tapers gradually. The batter used to make the cone is usually higher in sugar, which helps to enhance its flavor and give it a golden color after baking.
The second is the wafer cone. Compared with the sugar cone, this cone is lighter, thinner, and has a more delicate taste. It has a flatter, wider opening and a slightly curved shape. Wafer cones are made from a batter with a lower sugar content and a higher starch content, so the taste is neutral and complements the ice cream.
The third is the waffle cone. It has a richer buttery flavor and a thicker, harder structure. Waffle cones are usually larger in size and have a unique grid pattern on the surface, which is formed by the waffle iron used when making them.
Our equipment is designed to meet the specific production needs of various cone types and offers the following unique advantages:
For cone production, our equipment is equipped with a precise temperature control system to ensure that the sugar in the batter is evenly caramelized to achieve the ideal sweetness and crispness. The automated batter deposition system ensures consistent cone size and shape, thereby reducing product variation.
For wafer cone production, our equipment excels at handling thin batters. The high-speed baking plate evenly heats the batter to create a unique thin and crisp taste. The integrated cooling system prevents the cone from over-crisping and ensures that it maintains its structural integrity during handling and storage.
For waffle cone production, our equipment’s sturdy waffle baking plate design provides the necessary pressure and heat distribution to form a unique grid pattern while baking the batter to a perfect buttery and crispy taste. Adjustable baking time can customize the taste of the cone from extra crispy to slightly chewy.
All our equipment is equipped with efficient cone production lines to minimize downtime. Easy-to-clean components reduce maintenance time and ensure continuous operation of the equipment. In addition, the modular design enables scalability, allowing manufacturers to adjust production capacity according to demand.
In short, whether producing sugar, wafer or waffle cones, our equipment can provide consistent quality, efficiency and adaptability to meet the diverse needs of the ice cream cone market.
