Tavazo Freeze-Dried Ice Cream Confectionery

The confection is manufactured via controlled micro-aeration of dairy fat emulsions, concentrated milk proteins, and caramelized sugar syrups. Rapid stabilization under low-temperature vacuum drying locks an ultra-fine porous crystalline matrix. Because the cellular walls are exceptionally thin and composed of water-soluble sucrose and milk fats, oral moisture rapidly hydrolyzes the structural lattice, producing an immediate cooling phase-transition mimicking liquid ice cream.

Due to the delicate compressive strength of the aerated matrix, individual confections are nestled into custom-molded thermoformed compartment trays (PET/EVOH) preventing friction and mechanical contact. Trays are gas-flushed, sealed, and encased in 800 gsm rigid chipboard hardboxes. Master 5-ply cartons incorporate expanded polyethylene (EPE) corner bumpers and vibration-absorbing pallet strapping to survive transcontinental transit.

The confection is extremely hygroscopic due to anhydrous sucrose and dairy powders. To counter high relative humidity, it is hermetically encapsulated in high-barrier films boasting a Water Vapor Transmission Rate (WVTR) below 0.1 g/m²/day under dry nitrogen flushing. Food-grade silica desiccant sachets beneath the inner tray ensure the crystalline matrix remains impervious to atmospheric moisture until opened.

No. Tavazo Freeze-Dried Ice Cream Confectionery is formulated exclusively with natural dairy fat derived from fresh pasteurized heavy cream, containing 0% hydrogenated vegetable oils and zero trans-fats. The porous structure is generated via mechanical aeration without animal gelatins (porcine or bovine), securing 100% Halal compliance and clean-label integrity.

Given its rich dairy base, stringent testing regimens are enforced. Each production lot is screened for Total Plate Count (TPC < 5,000 CFU/g), yeasts and molds (< 50 CFU/g), negative E. coli, negative coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus, and absence of Salmonella in 25g, certified in an official batch Certificate of Analysis (COA).

The baseline wholesale MOQ is 50 master cartons (containing 1,200 to 2,000 retail boxes based on 200g or 350g specifications). For contracts exceeding 5,000 units, Tavazo accommodates multi-lingual private-label box sleeving, branded ceremonial ribbons, custom artwork printing, and retailer-specific GS1 barcoding.

Guaranteed shelf life in original sealed packaging spans 6 months. Storage mandates dry, well-ventilated warehouse zones below 18°C (optimally 15°C), shielded from direct sunlight. Storing adjacent to aromatic commodities or inside humid refrigerators without vapor barrier overwrap is strictly prohibited to prevent moisture uptake.
