Hawaiian Ice, also known as Shave ice (not Shaved ice), is much different than a sno-cone, in that it is made by a small counter-top machine that shaves ice rather than grinding it like a sno-cone machine. The result is ice so fine that it rivals real snow! The snow is then placed in a bowl and drenched with tropical flavored syrups. Because the shaved ice is so soft and powdery, the syrup is held within its texture, versus settling to the bottom like traditional sno-cones.

 

HC-8E is specially made for North America and it is approved by NSF and UL. NSF label is required by County Health Agency for commercial ice shavers which are required to sell and serve to the public. HC-8E is a faster machine and it shaves 6.0 lbs ice per/min. It is mostly bought and used by restaurants, caterers and vendors who sell Hawaiian shave ice to the public. HC-S32A is non NSF and UL. It is also a commercial ice shaver which gives fluffy shave ice. The HC-S32A shaves 4.0 lbs of fluffy shave ice per/min. It is mostly bought by home owners who really like to enjoy the taste of Hawaiian Shave Ice.

A quart size of concentrate will make 8 gallons of RTU syrup and 1 gallon of concentrate flavor will make 32 gallons on RTU syrup.
