ColdSnap Commercial Frozen Treat Machine
$2,499.00
1 Year Warranty
ColdSnap is a commercial frozen treat machine built for auto dealerships, gyms, hotels, corporate offices, golf clubs, airport lounges, micro markets, and more. It is not designed for home use.
Powered by patented freeze-on-demand technology, ColdSnap freezes each serving inside a sealed pod in around two minutes with no staff, no prep, no cleanup. Pods are shelf-stable, so there is no freezer storage, no cold-chain logistics, and no spoilage. Because the product never contacts the machine, there is nothing to sanitize between serves.
For operators who charge per pod, ColdSnap is a self-contained ancillary revenue stream that runs around the clock without adding labor. For operators who offer it as an amenity, it is the kind of unexpected, premium touch that drives guest satisfaction, stronger reviews, and repeat business.
One machine. Ice cream, non-dairy desserts, protein shakes, smoothies, and frozen lattes. Stock pods, press start, done.
Plug into a standard 120V outlet (15 amp minimum). No plumbing. No installation. No technician required to get started.
ColdSnap is a US company. The machine includes a 1-year warranty and is backed by dedicated US-based commercial support.
Effortless & Fast: Enjoy frozen treats in minutes with no waiting or prep.
No Cleanup Required: Food never touches the machine, ensuring ultimate cleanliness.
Shelf-Stable Convenience: ColdSnap pods require no refrigeration before use.
Versatile Selection: Indulge in ice cream, frozen lattes, protein shakes, and more!
Before You Buy
How is a ColdSnap machine different from traditional frozen equipment like soft-serve or gelato?
ColdSnap is a self-contained frozen treat system that creates premium ice cream,
smoothies, shakes, and more on demand from shelf-stable pods. Unlike traditional equipment, it requires no freezer, no water line, no daily cleaning protocols, and no trained staff.
What types of businesses is ColdSnap best suited for?
ColdSnap is designed for high-traffic, customer-facing environments and employee-focused spaces with natural dwell time. ColdSnap is suitable as either a premium employee amenity or incremental revenue stream.
This includes
- Airports
- Micro-markets and self-service retail
- Offices and corporate campuses
- Hospitality and hotels
- Healthcare and senior living
- Auto dealerships and waiting areas
- Sports and recreation venues
Is ColdSnap a good fit for my business?
ColdSnap works best in environments where:
- You want to offer a premium food experience without adding labor
- Space, plumbing, staffing, or sanitation constraints limit traditional food service
- You are looking to generate incremental revenue or enhance customer or employee experience
- You have a steady flow of foot traffic with natural dwell time, creating opportunities for engagement and/or incremental revenue
- Ultra-high-volume environments that require continuous output at scale (e.g., stadiums would benefit from multiple units.)
How does ColdSnap compare to soft-serve or pre-packaged ice cream?
- Vs. soft serve: No cleaning, no mix handling, no food safety complexity or daily cleaning compliance requirements, no equipment breakdown
- Vs. pre-packaged: Higher perceived value, made-to-order freshness, no freezer storage
- Vs. blenders/smoothies: No prep, no staff, consistent output every time
- Vs. all: Greater product selection including ice creams, frozen lattes, protein shakes, and frozen cocktails all with one machine.
ColdSnap trades slightly longer preparation time (~2 minutes) for dramatically simpler operations
How much training will my staff need?
No training at all. The ColdSnap machine is designed to be plug and play without staff training or internal expertise.
Cost, Revenue & ROI
What is the cost per pod?
Pod pricing varies by product type and volume. Bulk purchasing and our subscribe and save program typically reduce per-unit cost. Purchasing multiple cases will also lower the shipping cost per pod. Contact sales to discuss bulk purchasing options.
What is the selling price per serving?
ColdSnap does not set a MSRP for our pods. Most operators price servings depending on their business location, audience, and product type. Reach out to our sales department to discuss what a revenue strategy may look like for your
location.
What margins can I expect?
Margins vary by pricing strategy and pod cost, but many operators achieve strong unit economics due to:
- No labor cost
- No cold storage overhead
- Flexible ordering options
How quickly can the machine pay for itself?
When used as an incremental revenue stream, payback period will depend on usage and pricing. Understanding your foot traffic and dwell time will also help
understand revenue potential. Reach out to our sales department to discuss what a revenue strategy may look like for your location.
