Many people have eaten ice cream waffle cones, which are liked by many people because of their crispy texture. Nowadays we also know that ice cream waffle cups are made by the ice cream wafer cup machine, but do you know its origin?
The origin of ice cream wafer cups
In 1904, an ice cream vendor in the St. Louis Expo Park initially served ice cream for sale in ordinary cups and saucers. But by noon, all the cups and saucers had been used up. Next to the ice cream vendor, a vendor from the Middle East was selling a Middle Eastern dessert called Zalabia.
Just when the ice cream vendor didn’t know how to handle the afternoon’s business, Ernest rolled his Zalabia pancakes into a cone. The Zalabia was then transformed into an ice cream cone, and the wafer cone was born.
Today, there are two types of ice cream cones, one is the standard cone on the left in the picture above. This cone is very uniform in appearance and the production process is very simple, with the batter being poured into a mold, heated, and shaped before leaving the mold.
How to make an ice cream cone with a wafer cup machine
Good ice cream is served in wafer cups, it does not become soft and fluffy. Therefore, the process of making this kind of wafer cone will be a little more complicated. Next, we will show you how to make these ice cream cones with a wafer cup making machine.
- Baking tray
During the production process, the batter will be put on the baking tray first. The mold of the baking tray is grid-shaped, and when the batter is formed, it will have a grid pattern.
- Tunnel oven
The batter placed on the baking tray is first covered with a panel and then conveyed into the tunnel oven. The tunnel-type oven is a kind of equipment that uses long box hot air circulation and far-infrared drying for baking. It is mainly to cope with the demand for baking and drying with high output and efficiency requirements.
- Egg roll forming machine
After the batter is baked, the panel above will open. Then, the robot arm will send the baked batter to the omelet-forming machine. You can understand that the baked pastry will be fed into the conical mold in turn. In fact, there will also be a special arm on the omelet forming machine to receive the pastry and quickly roll it into a cone. The rolled waffle cone will fall from the outlet of the omelet-forming machine.
Finally, The dropped cones will be slowly pushed to the end, which is to leave enough time for the cones to cool down. Some of them also go directly to the cooling tunnel, so that the ice cream waffle cone made by the wafer cup machine is finished.
