Why Tyler Florence loves his Stoelting F131

Miller & Lux Provisions

In the heart of San Francisco's Union Square, renowned chef Tyler Florence's latest culinary venture, Miller & Lux Provisions Patisserie, has set a new standard for dessert. Among the many delights that have captivated customers, one stands out—the croissant cones, a marriage of ice cream and pastry that has been a hit since the cafe's opening. 

While the croissant cones themselves are a testament to Florence's culinary expertise, he attributes much of their success to a piece of Stoelting equipment—the Stoelting® F131-38I2 Soft Serve Freezer. In his own words, “it’s actually the soft serve machine that makes this dessert extra amazing”.  

What sets the Stoelting® F131-38I2 apart according to Florence, is its innovative internal system. This unique process allows chefs to tailor the texture to perfection, resulting in a “cartoon-like that’s so ultra-creamy" each time.  

But perhaps the most impressive feat is the machine's endurance. Florence attests that it runs tirelessly throughout the day, meeting the demands of a bustling cafe without skipping a beat. For him, it’s clear that there's no substitute when he stated, “I can’t imagine using any other soft serve machine – the end product that comes out is perfect exactly as is!". 

As the frozen dessert market continues to flourish, Florence's experience serves as a testament to the importance of quality equipment in achieving culinary excellence. With Stoelting® by his side, he's not just serving dessert; he's crafting an experience that leaves a lasting impression on every customer.
