Abstract: An apparatus for the preparationof ice cream, milkshakes, sorbet, frozen desserts and the like, from a pumpable starting mixture, comprises a storage container for the starting mixture and a cooling or freezing cylinder communicating with it via a supply conduit. A rotatably drivable stirring and scraping mechanism is disposed in the cylinder and the supply conduit discharges into an inlet chamber located on one end of the cylinder, a discharge valve being provided on the other end of the cylinder. Only the cylinder is provided with a heater for pasteurizing the starting mixture, and a thermostat is provided for limiting the wall temperature of the cylinder. Devices for transporting the starting mixture from the inlet chamber to the discharge valve are provided.
