An apparatus for making texture controlled edible ice products instantly

The present invention relates to an apparatus for producing edible ice products comprising: (a) a thermally insulated food grade material chamber; (b) at least one atomizing beverage nozzle(s) inserted in said thermally insulated chamber for spraying beverage droplets into said thermally insulated chamber; (c) at least one beverage valve(s), disposed between a beverage source and said atomizing beverage nozzle(s), for controlling the beverage flow rate into said chamber; (d) at least one gas expansion nozzle(s), inserted in said thermally insulated chamber, for expanding the gas in its liquid state to its gaseous state, and for jetting gas on said beverage droplets, in said thermally insulated chamber; (e) at least one gas flow regulator(s), disposed between a gas source and said gas nozzle(s) for regulating the gas flow rate into said gas expansion nozzle (s); (f) a controller for controlling said beverage valve(s) and said gas flow regulator(s); and (g) wherein said controller controls said beverage valve(s) and said gas flow regulator(s) for ensuring that said sprayed beverage droplets meet the jetted gas for freezing said droplets for forming a texture controlled edible ice product in said thermally insulated chamber.
