Cake Display Fridge

A cake display fridge is a general purpose chilled display cabinet to merchandise a wide range of patisseries including cakes and pastries, either for self-service by the customer, or enclosed for service by an attendant.

These can include food for immediate consumption, such as cakes, unwrapped cream cakes, cookies, biscuits and buns, as well as savoury pastries and other savoury snacks served cold.

Packaged goods can also be displayed in a chilled patisserie merchandiser, for example multipacks of cupcakes, donuts and other cold sweets.

Counterline have enclosed and open-faced glass cake display fridges in our idesign range, allowing you the option of serving customers yourself or allowing them to make their own selection and bring it to a counter to pay.

Counterling offer cake and patisserie fridges in the manhattan, integrale, countertops and vision aire ranges.

Chilled Cake & Patisserie Merchandising Fridge

Where are cake fridges used?

A commercial cake fridge might be used anywhere in business cold food is served, either in retail environments for later consumption, cafes and other food service establishments to be eaten immediately, or in other locations like cafeterias, hospitals, schools and so on. The design of this type of unit means the food is constantly on show. So a stand alone or counter top cake display fridge would make a great feature in a cafe or shop.

They serve several important purposes:

  • Displaying items to allow customers to make a selection.
  • Storing delicate items safely to avoid becoming misshapen or crushed.
  • Keeping chilled foods below the minimum safe storage temperature.

Cake and patisserie fridges also give staff good visibility of stock levels, so that specific items can be replenished as and when they are needed during the course of service, and especially in peak times such as lunch and dinner.

How do cake fridges work?

A cake fridge has one or more chilled shelves or racks on which fresh products such as cakes and pastries can be displayed while held at a controlled low temperature.

This is achieved through convection of chilled air throughout the cabinet, resulting in an even distribution of cooling air around each item via a method that is suited to the delicate sponge, pastry, whipped cream and other common patisserie ingredients.

Chilled cake display fridges may be open-fronted for self-service, or fully enclosed, helping to maintain the lower temperature inside and allowing for customers to be served by an attendant instead of helping themselves to their chosen items.

This is particularly beneficial when serving unwrapped delicate food items such as cupcakes and Danish pastries, as well as serving up individual slices of larger items like layer cakes.

Patisserie & cake fridges in the idesign range

You will find chilled merchandising units suitable for use as large or small cake display fridges throughout the Counterline idesign range, including integrale, da vinci and manhattan styles of enclosed chilled commercial cake fridges and self-service counter top display units with open fronts.

Our ‘new experience’ chilled self-help merchandisers come with angled shelves for visibility of all items, or flat shelves for delicate patisserie products that cannot be left at an angle, for example due to a whipped cream or soft frosting topping.

Find out more on the ‘chilled’ pages under each style and look under ‘heated’ for matching styles of hot plates, bain maries and other hot hold merchandiser units.

Finally, you can also look at our Options & Technical Specifications page for more details of how chilled merchandiser units in the idesign range can be customised for specific applications and even greater versatility.
