McFlurry

A McFlurry is a vanilla soft ice cream- based product that is sold at McDonald’s . McFlurry ice cream was developed and first sold in Canada . At the end of 1997, McFlurry was officially launched on the German market.

Manufacturing

McFlurry consists of creamy whipped soft vanilla ice cream and an additive that determines the flavor (so-called topping ). The ice cream is tapped into the McFlurry cup and the desired flavor is poured over it in powder form from a metering device. Then a specially shaped, large plastic spoon with a hollow handle is attached to a mixer to mix the ice cream and the flavoring additive. The plastic spoon is removed from the mixer again and handed over to the guest with the mixed cup . So each portion has its own mixer stick in the shape of a spoon.

This reduces the generally feared possibility in the field of soft ice cream production that contamination will continue through several servings, but at the same time this method leads to a significantly higher proportion of plastic waste compared to other soft ice cream offers (e.g. ice cream cones).

The soft ice cream ( McSundae ) common at McDonald's is used as soft ice cream , which is also used to make ice cream cups (with caramel or chocolate sauce) and ice cream cones. The flavors on offer vary depending on the topping used in the various national markets and regions. New flavors are tested regularly and introduced if they are successful or necessary.

In order to make the “soft ice” product, which is inherently very sensitive and susceptible to the most varied of impurities, safer, the raw material remaining in the machine is heated at the end of the day. This means that it can still be safely offered to the customer the next day and does not have to be disposed of. In this way, both food safety and the profitability of the locations are satisfied.
