Commercial Soft Serve Machines for Professional Kitchens

Commercial soft serve machines are one of the highest-margin additions a food service venue can make. A well-positioned soft serve program generates significant impulse revenue with low ingredient cost and minimal labour — making it a favourite for fast food outlets, hotel dining, ice cream parlours, and cafés looking to diversify their dessert offer. Unlike domestic ice cream makers, commercial soft serve units run continuous freezing cycles at high volume, maintaining consistent product viscosity and temperature throughout busy service periods. Gravity-fed machines are ideal for lower-volume operations and are easier to maintain; pump-fed machines deliver higher overrun control and output, suited to high-demand venues. Floor-standing models cater to large operations needing continuous supply, while benchtop configurations suit smaller venues or secondary outlets.

Our Soft Serve Machine Range

Atlantic Equipment is the authorised Australian supplier for Taylor — the global gold standard in commercial soft serve. The Taylor range spans single-flavour benchtop gravity-fed units (C707, C152) through to twin-twist high-capacity floor-standing machines (C712, C713, C716) with heat-treat cycles for hygiene compliance. The Taylor C723 provides high-capacity twin-twist bench top production with microprocessor viscosity control, ideal for busy QSR and dessert bars. The Taylor C606 combination shake and soft serve machine offers unique versatility for venues that serve both products. For artisan-style gelato production, we carry Italian-made Musso machines (L2 Stella, L3 Giardino, L4 Consul) producing up to 8kg/hr in a compact benchtop footprint. Technocrio Italian-made ice cream display freezers complete the range, keeping scooped product at optimal serving temperature in front-of-house displays.

Soft Serve Machines FAQs

What types of soft serve machines does Atlantic Equipment stock?

We stock single and twin-flavour soft serve machines in benchtop and floor-standing configurations, gravity-fed and pump-fed variants, combination shake and soft serve units, frozen custard machines, and artisan gelato batch freezers — from entry-level to high-capacity commercial production.

What is the difference between gravity-fed and pump-fed soft serve machines?

Gravity-fed machines rely on natural flow of mix from the hopper into the freezing cylinder — simpler to operate and maintain, and well-suited to lower-volume service. Pump-fed machines use a positive pump to force mix through the cylinder, providing greater control over overrun (air content) and delivering higher-capacity output — preferred for high-volume QSR and venues where consistent premium product quality is critical.

Which brands of soft serve machines do you carry?

We are the authorised Australian supplier for Taylor, the world’s leading commercial soft serve brand. We also carry Musso (Italian artisan gelato batch freezers) and Technocrio (Italian ice cream display freezers) to provide a complete frozen dessert solution.

Can you deliver soft serve machines across Australia?

Yes — we deliver soft serve machines Australia-wide. Due to the weight and size of floor-standing machines, delivery is via specialist freight carriers and must be to a ground-floor accessible location with forklift or tailgate access. Contact us to arrange a quote for your delivery address.

How do I size a soft serve machine for my venue?

Key factors include daily portion volume (freezing cylinder and hopper capacity), number of flavours required (single vs. twin-twist), peak service demand (portions per hour), and available benchtop or floor space. As a guide, a Taylor C707 suits venues serving up to 150–200 portions/day; a C713 or C716 floor-standing unit is appropriate for high-volume operations. Our team can help size the right machine for your specific throughput requirements.
