Do I need a granita machine to prepare frozen cappuccinos and fruit granitas?
No. This is a common misconception. Our frozen cappuccinos and fruit granitas can be prepared using a blender, ice cream machine, or even a shaved ice maker. We suggest starting out with a blender that crushes ice, which will allow you to test the sales potential in your location. For commercial-grade blender information, please check out Vita-Mix. However, a granita machine allows for higher volume and quick, efficient service. It’s also easier to sample with a granita machine. Finally, granita machines draw attention and promote impulse sales. If you can sell three frozen cappuccinos per day, then you’re profiting enough to pay for a machine through our lease program.
