Industry-Leading Shell Precision

FrozenCone® delivers highly accurate shell weights and uniform shell thicknesses, ensuring consistent product quality across every production run. The technology achieves up to ten times greater shell weight precision than traditional shell-making methods.

Superior Fat Bloom Resistance

The cold-pressing process creates a dense crystal structure and highly uniform shell walls, reducing fat migration and significantly improving resistance to fat bloom in centre-filled products.

For more than 30 years, FrozenCone® has set the standard for cold-pressed chocolate production.

Using patented technology and supercooled plungers, FrozenCone® creates perfectly shaped shells with exceptional precision, superior fat bloom resistance, and minimal chocolate waste.

The result? Higher product quality, greater design freedom, cleaner production, and significant chocolate savings.

Eliminate Waste. Maintain a Cleaner Production

With the launch of the third-generation FrozenCone® technology, excess chocolate and scraper systems became a thing of the past. The innovative cold-pressing process ensures clean mould surfaces, reduced waste, and a more hygienic production environment.

Flawless Shapes. Cleaner Production.

FrozenCone® combines high-precision tooling with patented cold-pressing technology to create perfectly shaped chocolate products with exceptional consistency. Clean mould surfaces, accurate shell formation, and reliable product dimensions ensure premium quality while supporting efficient, trouble-free production.

Built for Product Innovation

FrozenCone®V provides the flexibility to produce multiple product shapes, fillings, and chocolate masses within the same production setup. Quick-change plunger heads enable rapid product development, while direct transfer from mould to assortment box reduces handling and increases efficiency. The result is greater production flexibility, faster innovation, and premium assortment products with consistent quality.

Precision That Pays Off

FrozenCone® delivers up to 10× greater shell weight accuracy than conventional shell-making methods. Greater precision allows manufacturers to maximize centre filling weight while reducing overall chocolate consumption, creating premium products with improved profitability.

Engineered for Perfect Shell Geometry

FrozenCone® gives manufacturers complete freedom to create perfectly shaped chocolate shells with customized contours, embossed details, and precision-engineered edge geometries. The result is superior product quality, reliable assembly, and the flexibility to bring even the most complex chocolate designs to life.
