Overview
A double-insulated freezer bowl, frozen in advance, chills the dessert base while a motor turns the paddle inside the Cuisinart machine. Ingredients and mix-ins go through a wide spout on top while it churns.
Family sized batches and quick churning make it simple to serve a group. The bowl must be pre-frozen, and a second batch waits until the bowl refreezes.
Who it's for
Families and party hosts who plan ahead will get generous batches with little effort. People who want spontaneous or repeated batches should consider a compressor model.
Pros and cons
- Family sized batches
- Quick churn time
- Brushed stainless housing
- Bowl must be pre-frozen
- One batch per freeze
- Bowl takes freezer space
- Spot clean only
Performance notes
Coolant sealed in the double walls of the bowl absorbs heat from the base as the paddle scrapes and folds it. A freezer set to zero degrees is needed for full chill. Once the coolant warms, the bowl must refreeze before another batch.
