  • the present invention relates to a method for displaying and selling frozen edible products in a catering or retail outlet.
  • a method for displaying and selling frozen edible products in a catering or retail outlet In particular it relates to a method in which specific types of frozen products are used.
  • frozen edible products such as ice creams, sorbets, water ices, frozen milkshakes, granitas and slush ice drinks, in quick service restaurants, institutional catering facilities, petrol stations and other outlets has always presented problems.
  • frozen products must be stored in freezer cabinets which, owing to their size, frequently cannot be located at the point of sale where the customer makes his decision with regards to buying or not buying a product.
  • products must be visible and accessible to serving staff and / or customers. If frozen products are not visible, customers are likely to choose a more readily accessible alternative, for example a chilled dessert such as yoghurt which is normally displayed in an open-fronted chill cabinet or a chocolate bar from an ambient display stand.
  • insulated boxes combined with passive refrigeration for storing and preserving frozen products are known, for example from US 3 802 220.
  • WO 03/083386 discloses an insulated container having removable displaying and cooling means and containing frozen edible products. In operation, the insulated container, equipped with its displaying means and cooling means and filled with frozen edible products to be sold, is put on display at a point of sale, so that customers can chose and take products from said insulated container.
  • the present invention provides a method for displaying and selling frozen edible products from an insulated container equipped with passive cooling means, the method comprising placing frozen edible products which contain particles of ice or other frozen material having a size of from 0.5mm to 10mm in an insulated container which is situated at a point of sale in an ambient temperature environment.
  • the invention lies in the recognition that frozen products containing large particles of ice (or other frozen material), for example granita / ice slush products are suitable for consumption over a wide temperature range, compared for example to a standard ice cream or ice lolly product.
  • frozen products containing large particles of ice for example granita / ice slush products are suitable for consumption over a wide temperature range, compared for example to a standard ice cream or ice lolly product.
  • ice or other frozen material
  • the invention therefore allows frozen edible products to be displayed and dispensed in quick service restaurants, institutional catering facilities and other similar retail outlets which normally have very little space for a freezer at the point of sale. By carefully designing the frozen product, display times of 6 hours or longer can be achieved without requiring intervention from the vendor (e.g. monitoring the temperature, or replacing the products and / or cooling means).
  • the particles have a size of greater than 1 mm. Preferably the particles have a size of less than 8mm.
  • the particles are present in an amount of from 20 to 60 wt% of the product.
  • the particles have an average size of from 1 to 2mm and are present in an amount of from 30 to 40 wt% of the product.
  • the particles have an average size of from 5 to 8mm and are present in an amount of from 50 to 60 wt% of the product.
  • the passive cooling means comprises a eutectic material, more preferably one having a eutectic temperature in the range -5 to -25 0 C, even more preferably -8 to -2O 0 C.
  • the passive cooling means is provided in the form of pre-frozen blocks containing the eutectic material.
  • the blocks can be removed from the insulated container without needing to remove the products from the container.
  • the insulated container is separated into two or more separate compartments.
  • the point of sale is located in a restaurant, cafe, institutional catering facility, petrol station or other retail outlet.
  • the frozen edible product contains from 5 to 25 wt% of sugars.
  • the frozen edible product is a frozen confection such as an ice slush, a frozen milkshake or a granita.
  • the particles consist essentially of ice.
  • Figure 1 represents a view of a container suitable for use in the method of the invention.
  • Figure 2 represents a view of a container having three separate drawer compartments suitable for use in the method of the invention.
  • frozen edible product means a product designed for consumption which contains ice.
  • the frozen edible products may be similar in formulation to conventional frozen products, such as ice creams, sorbets, frozen yoghurts and the like.
  • the frozen edible products differ from conventional ice creams in that they contain particles of ice or other frozen material having a size of greater than 0.5mm which are large enough to be perceived individually on consumption.
  • the products are thus granita, frozen milkshakes or ice-slush style products.
  • the frozen edible products are normally a packaged, for example served in tubs or cups.
  • the products are suitable for consumption over a wide temperature range. At relatively low temperatures (e.g. -10°C or below) they are spoonable, similar to conventional frozen confections. At higher temperatures (e.g. -5 to -2°C) they are drinkable.
  • the frozen particles can be produced from water or aqueous solutions in any suitable manner, for example by freezing drops on a drum freezer; by direct immersion of droplets in liquid nitrogen, for example as described in US 5,126,156; by moulding small ice pieces, e.g. as described in US 5,738,889; or by using a fragmented ice maker such as the Ziegra Ice machine ZBE 4000-4, ZIEGRA-Eismaschinen GmbH, Isernhagen, Germany; a fragmented ice maker is described in US 4,569,209.
  • the frozen particles consist essentially of ice.
  • the frozen particles need not be pure ice, but may for example be pieces of frozen fruit juice or frozen milk etc. In one embodiment, up to about 20% of the frozen particles are frozen pieces of fruit.
  • Frozen particles are 3-dimensional objects, often of an irregular shape.
  • the size of a particle can be calculated from an area size measurement by assuming a regular shape for the particle and calculating the size or volume on that basis.
  • area size we mean the maximum area as seen in the image plane (i.e. when viewed using optical imaging).
  • the assumed regular shape is a sphere and therefore the size is 2 x V(area size/ ⁇ ).
  • the frozen particle size distribution of a frozen product can be measured as follows.
  • the whole ice / ethanol / water mix is then gently poured into a 14 cm diameter petri dish, ensuring complete transfer, and again gently agitated to ensure even dispersal of the ice particles in the dish. After 2 seconds (to allow for cessation of particle movement) an image is captured of the full dish. Ten replicate samples are taken for each product.
  • Images can be acquired using a domestic digital camera (e.g. JVC
  • the camera is selected to provide sufficient magnification to reliably image particles with an area size from 0.5 mm 2 to greater than 50 mm 2 .
  • the petri dish containing the sample is placed on a black background and illuminated at low angle (Schott KL2500 LCD) to enable the frozen particles to be easily visualised as bright objects.
  • Image analysis is conducted using the Carl Zeiss Vision KS400 Image analysis software (Imaging Associates Ltd, 6 Avonbury Business Park, Howes Lane, Bicester, OX26 2UA) with a macro programme specifically developed to determine the area size of each particle in the image. User intervention is required to remove from the image: the edge of the petri dish, air bubbles, coincidentally connected frozen particles and any residual undispersed material. Of these features, only the apparent connection between frozen particles is relatively frequent. The 10 samples taken allow for the sizing of at least 500, and typically several thousand, particles for each product characterised. From this image analysis it is possible to calculate the range and mean of the diameters of the frozen particles.
  • the frozen particles are combined with a mix.
  • Mixes typically contain sugars such as monosaccharides (e.g.
  • the amount of sugars in the mix is such that the final frozen products contain from about 5 to about 25 wt% of sugars.
  • Mixes typically also contain other ingredients conventionally found in water ices, fruit ices and milk ices, such as fruit (for example in the form of fruit pieces, fruit juice or fruit puree) milk solids, fat, colours, flavours, stabilizers and acidifying agents.
  • fruit for example in the form of fruit pieces, fruit juice or fruit puree
  • milk solids fat, colours, flavours, stabilizers and acidifying agents.
  • the mix may be (partially) frozen, for example in an ice cream freezer
  • the frozen confection may also contain ice crystals. Ice crystals are typically formed during dynamic freezing of the mix (e.g. in a scraped surface heat exchanger) and are distinguished from the frozen particles by their size. The ice crystals are substantially smaller than the frozen particles, i.e. less than 0.25mm, usually less than 0.1 mm. Ice crystals formed in a scraped surface heat exchanger are typically 0.05 - 0.1 mm in size.
  • the mix may simply be chilled before it is combined with the frozen particles.
  • the frozen particles and mix may conveniently be combined by feeding the frozen particles through a vane feeder into the mix.
  • the frozen particles are preferably added in an amount such that they constitute at least 20%, more preferably at least 30% by weight of the frozen confection.
  • the frozen particles are added in an amount such that they constitute at most 70%, more preferably at most 60% by weight of the frozen confection.
  • the frozen edible products which contain the frozen particles are placed in an insulated container which is situated at a point of sale in an ambient temperature environment.
  • Ambient temperature means the normal temperature at the point of sale, i.e. room temperature if the point of sale is indoors, or the air temperature if the point of sale is outdoors, typically 15 to 30°C, such as about
  • ambient temperature environment does not include the situation where the insulated container is located inside a freezer, cold store, chill cabinet etc.

  • the container is of generally cuboid shape, having 6 sides, although other shapes and configurations are possible.
  • the insulated walls may be constructed from an insulating material encased between sheets of a material such as fibreglass, metal or plastic.
  • the insulating material can be, for example, a closed cell foam structure such as expanded polystyrene; foam rubber, such as elastomeric nitrile rubber insulation (which has a thermal conductivity of around 30 mW m '1 K '1 ); rigid foams, such as polyurethane; a fibrous material, such as fibreglass; a vacuum sealed within a double walled container; or vacuum insulated panels, which are typically made of an open cell foam or granular structure which is enveloped and hermetically sealed into a

  • the phase change material should have a phase change temperature such that the frozen edible product remains frozen and is at a suitable temperature when consumed, for example -5 0 C or below, preferably, -8 0 C or below.
  • the passive cooling means are "recharged", for example by re-freezing in a back-of-house freezer facility.
  • the time for which the passive cooling means are refrozen must be sufficient to remove the heat absorbed by the cooling blocks during a vending period. Typically they will be refrozen overnight.
  • the phase change temperature should be above the temperature of a typical back-of-house refrigeration facility, so that it can be refrozen conveniently, e.g. overnight or while the outlet is closed.
  • the back of house refrigeration facility is typically a freezer or cold store at a temperature in the range -18 to -25 0 C.

  • the casings are typically not completely filled with the phase change material when unfrozen, so that there is space inside the casings to allow for expansion of the phase change material on freezing.
  • the phase change material generally does not make the products colder (since the products and phase change material may well be at the same initial temperature, i.e. that of the back-of-house freezer), but prevents the products from warming up.
  • blocks containing the phase change material are located on each of the inside surfaces of the container since this configuration is the most effective for maintaining low temperatures inside the container.
