Every product requires a particular type of equipment to showcase and properly maintain the product. The equipment required to display gelato is a ventilated freezer case. By having cooled air forced around the product, this allows the gelato to be maintained and served at a warmer state creating a more enjoyable mouth-feel sensation.
