Cuisinart SCM-10P1 Snow Cone Maker, Plastic, Red

Product Information

The great thing about snow cones is that you can choose any flavour. Whether you want a classic like strawberry or something more unusual like mango, the choice is yours. Some people love to make rainbow effect cones, or you can combine fruity flavours for the perfect refreshing treat. Some shaved ice machines come with flavored syrups that include cherry, grape, or orange, but you can also get creative and use other toppings. Pour some sweetened condensed milk on the shaved ice for a "snow cap," or fresh juice or chunks of fruit such as pineapple. Puree up fruit like watermelon or throw on some ice cream, and why not put on some chocolate chips while you're at it? For the price of just a few shaved ice cones at the fair, you can own your very own snow cone powerhouse. The manual crank makes itokay for kidsto use, although it takes some strength, aka elbow grease, to churn out shaved ice—not necessarily a bad thing if you're looking for fun summer food to make with your kids to keep them occupied. The sharp, high-quality, rust-resistant blades make the work a bit easier, and it's constructed of BPA-free material, so you can feel safe using it for the entire family. Another great way to enjoy snow cones is using your favourite drinks as flavourings. Imagine a Coca-Cola flavoured cone or Mountain Dew, and you'll know why these icy cold treats are so popular.

What We Love: Precise stainless steel blade, attached dome shaper, high-speed motor, easy to clean and store Popular combinations included vanilla with egg and sugar, but entrepreneurs soon saw the potential of these treats. As most people know, when something becomes an American phenomenon, the rest of the world soon follows! Are Snow Cones & Slushies The Same? On the flip side of the coin, however, this model might not be the best option if you’re planning to just make a single snow cone—other machines dispense ice straight into your cup or bowl, which is much more convenient than digging it out of a bin. The JM Posner snow cone maker boasts fantastic performance, and you can make four portions in less than one minute! Comparing to many other shaving ice machines of the same class, this amount sounds impressive. We also liked that the manufacturer has provided this set with 4 plastic cones saving you the need to buy them elsewhere additionally. Once the shaved ice is ready, serve it up in these cones and when the feast is over, hide them away in a foldaway cone storage compartment. With the JM Posner snow cone maker, you can enjoy homemade snow cones and slushies, experiment with syrups, add fruit and create absolutely fantastic mouth-watering treats for your whole gamily as often as you want.

So, if you want to celebrate summer and counteract the increasingly hot temperatures in the UK, read on because we're about to show you how to make the best snow cones. The History Of Snow Cones Despite the popularity of slushies, snow cones are becoming more common in Europe, making them the perfect alternative to a calorie-loaded dessert.

This handy, compact machine is affordable, easy to operate, clean, transport (for shaved ice on the road!), and store. What's more, it comes with a simple-to-use flexible silicone mold that can accommodate 15 ice cubes, which produces quite a bit of shaved ice. Avoid soap when taking care of your shaved ice maker, and never immerse it in water. The best way to clean your machine is with a vinegar and water solution. Mix the two in a spray bottle and spray down the shaving plate, ice chamber, and ice chute, then carefully wipe them out with a soft cloth. Be careful—the blades that cut through the ice are incredibly sharp. This electric machine makes just as delicious frozen lemonades, slushies, and adult party drinks (spike some frozen limeade for a grownup summer treat) as it does stellar snow cones and shaved ice. It's nearly effortless to operate—just add ice cubes, flip a switch, and it shaves enough ice for four cones in under a minute.

A pop-out tray holds four cones for convenient serving and storage, and the removable ice bin is easy to empty and wipe clean. Plus, this machine is fast and relatively quiet when making these delicious icy treats. The machine is made out of plastic except for the blades. If you are serious about churning out many delicious snow cones for a crowd, look no further. Great Northern is an industry leader in the concession market, and it has a reputation for quality. The brass and stainless steel construction and easy-on-the-eye finish make this a machine you’ll want to display at the center of your pool party, along with other colorful summer desserts like rainbow rice krispie treats.
