What are snow cone machines and why should you be interested in them? Shaved ice drinks infused with flavor are popular all year long but especially in the hot summer months.
Iced Drink Popularity
Browse our large selection of Snow Cone Machines
Corner stores have snow cone machines, restaurants have them, coffee shops make flavored ice and many concession stands at arenas sell them. It’s also common for street vendors to use them as well in areas such as carnivals or fairs or just in a busy city. There are flavors of the fruit variety as well as popular soda beverages like cola, root beer, grape soda and more and there are some exotic flavors as well. Some people even like their iced drinks sour and will order sour shots to go into their drink. While multiple sour shots could make you pucker, many kids really like this type of beverage.
How do snow cone machines work?
Snow cone machines can work in different ways. Some shave the ice and blend in the flavor when served. The server pours the unflavored ice into a cone and then squirts syrup on top of the ice. This is a common type of machine for snow cones.
Looking for commercial popcorn machines and other resources?
There are other iced drink machines that are designed to swirl in the machine with the flavors in them. In this case, iced coffee beverages or other flavors such as slushed cola, slushed root beer or slushed orange pop are served. Many corner stores have these machines and offer very large portions of these beverages to customers for a great price.
Profit Potential with Snow cone machines
Ice is really cheap and so are the supplies for these machines so the profit potential is pretty big, especially in the summer time. The hotter the day and the more publicly you display your snow cones for sale, the better the profits for you. Amusement parks are a very popular place for these types of drinks.
Buying Considerations
When buying a machine for making shaved ice drinks, there are several things to consider including:
* Size of the machine
* The warranty offered on the machine
* Presence of drain decks
* Whether you want a model with a backlit sign
* Storage units for syrup and accessories attached
* Finish type for ease of cleaning
* Motor size
* Capacity
You also want to consider the appearance of the machine. If it has a viewing window to show the ice, this can be extra inviting to people looking at your snow cone or slush puppy machine on a hot day.
Snow cone machine offerings vary by manufacturer and pricing ranges from a few hundred to several hundred dollars per machine but you can find online suppliers who will supply you with a high quality machine. You can also find suppliers with extra perks such as a money back guarantee if you are not entirely satisfied with your purchase.
Some suppliers of snow cone machines will also sell related items such as popcorn machines, cotton candy makers along with the supplies and accessories that go with all these machines as well.
