For volume producers of frozen novelties, sticky conditions are a constant issue with equipment during processing.
"Any process involving fruit juices has the potential to be messy," explained T.J. Couzens, vice president and general manager of Italian ice and frozen juice bar maker MIA Products. "Manufacturers of frozen novelties must run batch mixes through the process lines before they reach the freezing rooms. The sugars in the juice can make cleaning process lines difficult."
