ONERO Soft Serve Chocolate | Home

Home Edition for Domestic Machines

ONERO soft-serve mix powders are made for ice cream machines, using high-quality British and Irish milk and offering significant advantages. Originally designed for commercial ice cream makers, they are now available in 150g sachets for home use with any type of domestic machines.

Unlike most whipped ice creams that contain non-dairy fats like palm oil and added emulsifiers, ONERO mixes use only dairy milk fats. Thanks to their 32-35% full-cream milk powder content, they bring a luxurious taste and texture.

Advantages of Mixes in Powder Form

Soft-serve is dispensed directly from the ice cream machine and is known for its light, airy texture. It is commonly sold in high-street shops, seaside kiosks and mobile ice cream caterers such as Mr Whippy-style vans. Soft-serve mixes are supplied in two forms: UHT/chilled liquid which is pre-made and ready to use, or soluble powder such as ONERO mix, which should be mixed with water before being poured into the ice cream machine.

While common liquid mixes eliminate one preparation step, they come with drawbacks. UHT processing (Ultra High Temperature) heats the liquid mix to over 130°C during manufacturing, which destroys delicate dairy flavours and often results in a cooked, flat taste. To compensate, some manufacturers tend to mask with flavours and other additives. Liquid mixes also have fixed formulations preventing users from adjusting mix ratios to suit custom recipes and preferences. Once a liquid mix is opened, it has a limited usage window leading to potential waste. They are also significantly heavier and bulkier than powders, increasing transport and warehouse costs, while their sensitivity to spoilage makes them less stable compared to powders, which also retain better nutrient stability over time.

Based on premium dried milk, ONERO mix powders outperform ordinary options combining the purity of real dairy with the advantages of powder.
