Glass Canopy

Outfitted with a glass canopy, the dipping cabinet is perfect for front-of-house applications.

Deep Canopy Shelf

A deep shelf is built on top of the canopy, which is ideal for placing sampling spoons, cups, promotional materials, and prepared orders.

Control the unit and program your preferred settings with intuitive digital controls. A 115V electrical connection is required for operation.

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers

Can I install a dipper well on this product?
Yes. This dipping cabinet includes pre-drilled holes, spaced 4 inches apart, on the rear of the unit for mounting a dipper well.
Yes, casters can be installed on this unit by removing the bottom panel to access the predrilled holes for the compatible plate casters.
Avantco warrants new equipment sold to food truck customers to be operational for a period of 30 days from the date of delivery if installed and maintained correctly.
Yes, this dipping cabinet will come boxed with the tub inserts and covers as pictured.
R-290 (also known as high purity propane or CARE 40) and R-600a (also known as refrigerant grade Isobutane or CARE 10) are hydrocarbon refrigerants. R513a (also known as Opteon XP10) and R-448A (also known as Solstice N40) are HFO (hydrofluoroolefin) refrigerants. They are being used by some manufacturers in response to the EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program.
These units hold approximately 10” x 10” 3-gallon ice cream tubs (sold separately).
Generally speaking, ice cream dipping cabinets have a lower holding temperature than gelato dipping cabinets. Because of this, it is not suggested that you store gelato in ice cream units. Also, typically gelato dipping cabinets use 5 L pans to hold product, whereas ice cream dipping cabinets are designed to hold 3 gallon tubs.
As the ice cream gets low, the tub no longer has the weight to remain in place. The cover of the tub has 4 slots for the included clips (packaged separately) that can be used to provide extra holding power to the tub as to prevent unwanted spinning.
The factory-set temperature of -15°F to -11°F reflects the cabinet's operating range, but the ideal product temperature for scooping ice cream is typically between 6°F and 10°F. The specific set temperature needed to reach the ideal product temperature may vary depending on the brand of ice cream and its butterfat content. If your item is still under warranty and you require further assistance with changing the parameters, please reference your warranty for contact information and support.

Not a bad freezer for the price but we have had many issues of inconsistent temperature control as Brian mentioned in his review. The tops of the ice cream are definitely too soft compared to the bottom. If you scoop ice cream on to a cone it wants to slide right off. When you turn the freezer down to make the top harder then the bottom is so hard you can't scoop it. It's been a constant battle over the last year and a half. If I hadn't needed one so bad I would have waited to save up a bit more to purchase a more expensive, better reviewed freezer.

Worst purchase I made. Do not go cheap on dipping cabinet, spend the extra money on quality ones. One came broken and they have been trying to fix it for 3 weeks now and I have been without this whole time. Very inconsistent temperature control. top of the tubs are melting while the bottoms are rock hard.

Pay close attention when purchasing this product if you intend to use it as a dipping cabinet as WebstaurantStore advertises it as. It’s actually an ice cream freezer and keeps the ice cream at a temp soo hard it cannot be dipped. WebstaurantStore refuses to acknowledge their listing mistake and now we have a huge paperweight that we cannot use for its intended purpose. We have spend thousands and thousands of dollars on WebstaurantStore and have never been more dissatisfied with the level of customer service we have received in regards to this issue.

This dipping cabinet does work very well but does have some issues. The specs for it state that its for ice cream but not gelato. The biggest problem I have is you can't raise the temperature above 0 degrees and you can't not scoop ice cream at zero. The doors do not seal and this causes ice to build up around the rim. I do like the ability to raise the tubs but even at the highest point you get soft ice cream at the top but rock hard at about halfway down. The ice cream tubs sit on a rack, trying to fit them into the rack isn't great. I have to bend the bottom rim to fit them in. The top covers that go on the tubs have to use a supplied wedge but if ice builds up it becomes Read More

These really aren’t good quality at all. They bend easily and defeat their purpose, rusty really bad bc the coating is cheap and chips, and the protruding parts break off so everything just knocks and slides around. Maybe okay for a slow ice cream shop that doesn’t touch them often.. but not one with high business/use. We feel like we can’t even wash them because they’re deteriorating so easily. We’ve had for 2 years but the last year they haven’t been in good condition.

Thank you for your review, Seth! A Customer Solutions Representative will remain in touch with you on this ice cream dipping cabinet! Please reach out with any questions.

We love our Avantco Dipping cabinet. We are only a few weeks in but it keeps temperature at perfect scooping temp, even thought it doesn’t look fully sealed. Very easy use, clean and change out tubs. Perfect for our scoop shop! I recommend!

Ice Cream in this freezer holds great. I was able to get my 3 gallon tubs inside and store 4 more below. (5 would fit below too) The temperature is steady. When we did get the freezer, I had to place gaskets on the lid sides to reduce airflow in and out of the freezer. This was a cheap fix from the local hardware store. No one even noticed it was put on afterwards. Clean and simple design. Measurements also matched perfectly.
