Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Scoop, a popular seaside kiosk in Newquay, Cornwall, was struggling with a small chest freezer that hid their fantastic local ice cream from view. They upgraded to the Best Frost ICD13 to create an eye-catching display right on their counter front.

"It’s made a massive difference. Customers can see all the flavours, and  the kids absolutely love pointing out which one they want. It looks so much more professional, and  serving is much quicker now we're not digging around in a chest freezer."

Ben Carter – Owner, The Salty Scoop

Since installing the unit, The Salty Scoop has seen its ice cream sales increase by over 30% during peak season.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit is on a flat, level surface to help the compressor run smoothly.
  • Leave at least 10cm of space around the back and  sides for good air circulation.
  • Before plugging in, let the unit stand for at least 4 hours to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  • The glass canopy is supplied flat-packed, so follow the simple instructions for self-assembly.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the interior with a food-safe cleaner and  a soft cloth regularly.
  • Defrost the unit manually when ice build-up becomes noticeable to maintain efficiency.
  • Gently clean the glass lids with a suitable glass cleaner to keep the display sparkling.
  • Routinely check and  clear the ventilation grills of any dust or debris.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Ice Cream Display

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few pointers to help you pick the perfect display for your business.

Size and  Capacity

Measure your space first! Consider how many Napoli tubs you realistically need. A 7-tub model like this is great for most, but smaller or larger options are available if you need them.

Cooling Type

This model uses static cooling, which is reliable and  cost-effective. Ventilated (or fan-assisted) cooling offers more even temperatures but often comes at a higher price. Static is perfect for scoop shops where tubs are used and  rotated regularly.

Display and  Lighting

Your freezer's job is to sell! Look for clear, anti-fog glass (like the Low-E glass here) and  good visibility. Some models have internal LED lighting, which can make colours pop even more.

Power & Placement

Always check if a unit needs a standard 13-amp plug or specialist wiring. A plug-in model offers far more flexibility on where you can place it in your shop.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for features like a durable interior (embossed aluminium is great), removable parts, and  castors for mobility. A clean freezer is an appealing freezer.

How Low-E Glass Keeps Your Scoops Perfect (and Saves You Money)

Ever wondered what 'Low-E Glass' actually means? Think of it as a transparent thermal blanket for your freezer. The glass has an invisible, ultra-thin metallic coating that is fantastic at reflecting heat. In summer, it reflects the sun's heat away from the freezer, stopping it from getting in. In winter, it reflects the cold air back into the unit, stopping it from escaping.

This means your freezer's cooling system doesn't have to work nearly as hard to maintain that crucial sub-zero temperature. The result? Your gelato stays perfectly frozen without developing nasty ice crystals, the display stays clear without fogging up, and  you use less electricity. It’s a clever bit of science that makes a real difference to your product quality and  your energy bills.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Independent Gelato Parlours: The perfect starting unit or secondary freezer for showcasing your most popular artisanal flavours.
  • Cafés and  Delis: A brilliant way to add a high-profit dessert option that tempts customers as they queue.
  • Farm Shops & Attractions: Capitalise on sunny days by offering local ice cream in a professional, appealing display unit.
  • Hotels & Restaurants: Upgrade your dessert station or buffet with a dedicated **gelato display freezer commercial** unit.
