Abstract: This invention provides a safe and sanitary apparatus for blending hard ice cream (or other frozen confections) with syrups and other ingredients. A refrigerated funnel holds the materials to be mixed. An auger is aligned with the funnel and the auger and the funnel are relatively advanced toward each other while the auger is rotated clockwise and counterclockwise until the funnel and the auger are telescoped together, thus to produce a tasty and attractively marbled or blended product. A spray head and suitable automatic washing apparatus also is provided to rinse the auger and funnel surfaces.
