ABSTRACT:
A device for masticating frozen foodstuffs such device having a housing; a motor installed inside the housing; and an inlet portion for introducing foodstuffs therein connected to a masticating chamber. A plunging device is attached such that a piston is inserted into the inlet hopper to move the frozen foodstuffs into the masticating chamber. A masticating element is contained within the masticating chamber and is connected to the motor. This masticating element is formed with a threaded masticating portion with a plurality of cutting grooves having ninety degree angles of attack for masticating the frozen foodstuffs into the desired creamy texture. The masticating element also has a transferring portion with a plurality of moving shoots to move the masticated product out of the machine. The frozen fruits, vegetables, or other foodstuffs are easily loaded, masticated, and cleanly removed from the apparatus. When using frozen fruits this results in a non-dairy frozen dessert comprised of quick frozen fruit composite which has been masticated to achieve a desired creamy texture. Fruit, vegetables, or other frozen foodstuffs may be used alone or in combination with other flavoring agents such as vanilla extract, oils such as mint and powders or liquors such as chocolate and carob.
