Choosing the right ice cream for the right dish
Delivering your customers the ice cream happiness that they desire starts behind the counter. It’s great to have a 10L vanilla vanilla in your freezer. However, bulk ice creams may not be compatible with all applications.
While some bulk ice creams will give you a creamy, thick shake, others will make your dessert look like a pile of melted cream. We have the inside scoop on which type of bulk icecream can make your dish shine.
HOW TO GET THE THICKEST SHAKE
Do you ever wake up with an idea that could transform your menu? We Aussies are pretty adept at finding things overseas, adapting them to our home and making it our own. The Aussie version of the American milkshake classic is the all-time favorite thickshake. We don’t believe that you should only have one type of shake in Australia. We offer thickshakes, milkshakes, and now freakshakes.
Ice cream is a key ingredient in making this popular crowd favorite. It’s thick and difficult to swallow through a straw, which makes it hard to resist. A thickshake is basically ice cream that has a tiny bit of milk and tasty flavouring. It’s important to choose the right icecream! You need bulk ice cream with at least 10% fat to ensure that your thickshake does not turn into a bland, watery beverage.
The type of ice cream you make is not the only thing to watch out for. Always start with the ice cream before you add all other ingredients to a blender. After the toppings, syrups, fruits, and syrups are combined to make a thick cream of ice cream, add your milk slowly. You can control the consistency of your thickshake by taking your time with the milk. The more milk you add, the smoother and less expensive your drink will be.
Just when you think you’re done with thickshakes, many venues are turning them into freakshakes. It started with burgers that were too good to be true, then came the loaded fries and now the freakshake. The freakshake is a thickshake that’s decorated with everything edible. This includes chocolate bars, scoops ice cream and lollies. Some venues even added waffles, brownies, and pieces of cake to their shakes. There are so many places to go.
SHAKE YOUR MILKSHAKES
Milkshakes were before thickshakes. Milkshakes are dependent on milk, while thickshakes depend on consistency and quality of icecream to make customers swoon. Milkshakes are often made by mixing syrups or sauces with the milk preference. As time passes, Aussies are now adding a scoop of ice cream to their milkshakes to add more flavour and texture.
Cafes, ice cream parlours, and fast-food restaurants are switching to ice cream with small amounts to preserve the creaminess of the milk. A lower-fat ice cream flavour will be a better choice for milkshakes, as customers aren’t looking for thick drinks.
AFFOGATOS – THE CHERRY ON TOP TO END A PERFECT MEAL
It’s a dream come true for adults, made with coffee and ice cream. This coffee-based dessert is a classic and has been on the menus for many years. This is the adult version of child’s icecream with sprinkles. It’s a sweet treat that’s served after a tasty meal.
It is important to choose the right icecream for your customers. You can enhance the richness and decadence of your affogatos by using full-fat vanilla ice cream. Vanilla Bean is a great choice if you’re looking to make your dessert stand out. Your customers will love the vanilla bean flecks. You can also try chocolate, hazelnut, or coffee full-fat ice cream if you want to go bolder.
Ice cream is the star of the dessert. Make sure to chill your glass before you add a scoop. It will prevent the ice cream from melting as soon as it leaves your kitchen, and before it reaches your customers. You can also show off your icecream and offer your customers an espresso shot to accompany it. This will give your customers the chance to enjoy the thrill of pouring their coffee over top.
SUNDAES AND KID’S DESERTS – WHEN IT ALL IN THE TOPPINGS, AND THE SCOOP of ICE CREAM Is A BONUS
Ice cream and saving money don’t go together. Ice cream is the key ingredient in many dishes. It delivers rich flavours, thick textures, and an unforgettable experience.
Let’s face it, kids don’t care about how good the ice cream is. They care only about the delicious toppings and sauces that hide the creamy goodness from the naked eyes. The best way to cut costs is to use a less expensive, more common ice cream, such as banana splits or sundaes, for the kids’ menu.
The perfect scoot to accompany your savoury dishes: SLICK, FLAWLESS AND SHINY
It’s okay to go cheap on ice-cream for kids’ desserts, but cutting corners when ice cream is an integral part of the dish is not. If ice cream is a main component of your dish, choosing a premium icecream will improve the taste and appearance. Your customers will be captivated by the combination of the rich and flavourful ice cream and the warm, delicious cake. Premium ice cream gives your customers a creamier, denser texture that melts as soon as it touches their lips (and not before).
Premium ice cream has a stronger flavour and thicker consistency. This enhances the appearance of your dessert. Imagine being served dessert with ice cream that has already melted. It wouldn’t be something you would like, and neither would your customers. A top-of the-rank ice-cream will give you a silkier, smoother quenelle that holds its shape longer and can be paired with other dessert components. You want to make your dessert more luxurious? A vanilla bean is a simple choice that will elevate the quality of your dessert.
THE FINAL SCOOP
It’s important that you understand the differences between bulk ice creams. Some may have a thicker consistency because of their higher fat content, while others might release a stronger flavour because they are more quality. Before placing bulk orders, think about the purpose of your ice cream and choose from a few options depending on its application.
