Commercial Kulfi Maker Box, 84 Moulds, 2 oz

This 84-mold commercial kulfi box is what Indian restaurants and catering businesses actually use to make authentic malai kulfi at large scale. It's the traditional metal box design you'd see in India, built with galvanized steel molds that can handle daily freezer cycling without rusting out.

What makes this useful for restaurants:

The 84-mold capacity means you can prep a full batch overnight and have kulfi ready for your dinner service or weekend catering event. Each mold holds 2 oz, which is the standard serving size. The box measures 27" x 18" x 13", so you'll want to measure your freezer first, but it fits in most commercial units.

The galvanized steel construction isn't fancy, but it's durable. These boxes last for years in commercial kitchens because they're built to take repeated freezing and thawing. The metal handles freezing better than plastic molds, which tend to crack over time.

How restaurants actually use this:

Most places prep kulfi mix in the evening, pour it into the molds, freeze overnight, and serve the next day. You can insert wooden sticks before freezing if you want the traditional kulfi-on-a-stick presentation. To remove the kulfi, just dip the mold briefly in room temperature water for 5-10 seconds and it slides right out.

ROI is straightforward:

Ingredient cost per kulfi runs about $0.30-0.50. Restaurants typically sell kulfi for $3-5. At 84 pieces per batch, you're looking at $210-378 profit per full box. The equipment pays for itself after 100-150 kulfis sold, which for most operations is 1-2 batches.

Common applications:

• Indian restaurants adding kulfi to dessert menus
• Catering companies serving weddings and cultural events
• Food trucks and street vendors (the decorated box is instantly recognizable)
• Sweet shops expanding their frozen dessert selection
• Event catering operations that need portable equipment

Technical specs:

• 84 individual galvanized steel molds
• 2 oz (60 ml) capacity per mold
• Total batch: 168 oz (5 liters)
• Dimensions: 27" W x 18" D x 13" H
• Weight: approximately 25-30 lbs empty

Popular kulfi flavors you can make:

Traditional options include malai (cream), pistachio, mango, cardamom, and saffron. Some restaurants also do rose, kesar pista, almond, or seasonal fruit variations. The 84-mold capacity gives you flexibility to make multiple flavors in one batch if you want variety on your menu.

Cleaning and maintenance:

Hand wash the molds with warm soapy water after each use. Dry them completely before storing to prevent rust on the galvanized coating. The box itself just needs occasional wiping down. With basic care, this equipment will last many years of regular commercial use.

What's included:

Complete kulfi box with all 84 integrated galvanized steel molds. Ready to use - just add your kulfi mixture and freeze. The decorative exterior gives it that authentic kulfi vendor look if you're doing tableside service or operating a street cart.

Important note on freezer space:

At 27" x 18" x 13", this takes up significant freezer real estate. Make sure you have the space before ordering. Most commercial reach-in freezers can accommodate it, but measure to confirm.

Customer questions we get:

Do I need a commercial freezer?
No, it works in residential freezers too, though you'll want a chest freezer or large upright to fit the dimensions.

Can I make other frozen desserts?
Yes, the 2 oz molds work for popsicles, ice pops, or any frozen dessert. Some customers use them for sorbet or frozen fruit bars.

Are wooden sticks included?
No, but standard popsicle sticks work fine and are available at any restaurant supply store or online.

How long does freezing take?
Allow 6-8 hours minimum. Most restaurants prepare overnight for next-day service.

Is this the same equipment used in India?
Yes, this is the traditional commercial design used by kulfi vendors across India and wherever Indian communities have established restaurants.
