Machine Makes Instant Ice Cream (Mar, 1935)
This sounds like a good idea. Would it work?
Machine Makes Instant Ice Cream
USING a new style freezer, freshly made ice cream can be produced in 40 seconds and delivered to a waiting customer.
The ingredients of the dish, after mixing are poured into the top of the machine where they are broken into a fine spray by an atomizer rotating at the speed of 3,000 turns per minute. The spray is thrown against the cylinder wall, which is maintained at a low temperature, where it freezes instantly.





Saw something amazingly similar to this on Food Network’s “Secret Life Of…”, their Vending Machine show.

The company that’s doing it is called MooBella and from what I remember of the “Secret Life” show, they sprayed the ingredients onto a cold rotating cylinder.
Here’s a video of someone else talking to MooBella but they don’t get as in-depth about it as the Food Network show:
