The Simply Gelato Advantage — Zesty Refreshment, Professional Texture
The Frozen Bean has pioneered the "just-add-liquid" movement for premium frozen desserts, and their Lemon Velvet mix is a favorite for modern Canadian cafes, parlors, and upscale bistros. By utilizing specialized stabilizers and a unique dairy-influenced base, this mix achieves the dense, silky "low-overrun" mouthfeel of authentic gelato without the sharp acidity often found in standard lemon ices. For Canadian hospitality operators, this means you can offer a world-class, sophisticated citrus dessert without the need for a classically trained pastry chef or complex ingredient sourcing.
The powdered format is exceptionally stable and engineered to prevent ice crystal formation, ensuring a smooth finish even in gravity-fed soft-serve machines. Whether you are running a boutique dessert bar or a high-volume seasonal kiosk, this shelf-stable solution eliminates the waste and cold-storage requirements associated with perishable liquid dairy mixes. It is the most efficient way to maintain a consistent, high-margin citrus offering in your rotation throughout the year.

Why Choose Lemon Velvet vs. Standard Lemon Sorbet?
"Velvet" Texture
While standard sorbet is water-based and can feel icy, "Lemon Velvet" incorporates a creamy base that provides a richer, more indulgent mouthfeel similar to a lemon-cream gelato.
Balanced Citrus Profile
The Frozen Bean has formulated this mix to provide a bright lemon "zing" without the harsh, puckering acidity of a cheap slushy mix, making it an excellent palate cleanser for multi-course meals.
Western Canada Distribution
Shipping from our Calgary hub means faster transit and lower costs for businesses in Alberta, BC, and Saskatchewan compared to ordering from Eastern Canadian or US-based distributors.
Frequently Asked Questions — Buying The Frozen Bean in Canada
Where can I buy Lemon Velvet gelato mix in Canada?
You can purchase the full 5-bag case online at ChickenPieces.com. We ship directly from our Calgary warehouse to ice cream parlors, cafes, and restaurants across Canada with no membership fees required.
Does this work in a standard soft-serve machine?
Absolutely. The formulation is perfectly balanced for all commercial soft-serve machines, batch freezers, and even heavy-duty blenders for creating "Lemon Cream" frappes or milkshakes.
Is this mix dairy-free?
The "Velvet" line generally contains dairy-based components to achieve its signature creamy texture. While it can be mixed with water, it is vegetarian but not vegan or dairy-free. For a pure dairy-free option, check our sorbetto listings.
How many servings are in one bag?
One bag typically yields 35-40 standard 4 oz servings, depending on your machine's overrun (the amount of air incorporated). A full case provides approximately 175-200 servings.
What is the best way to mix the powder?
Use a high-speed immersion blender to combine the powder with cold water or milk. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes before pouring it into your machine to allow the stabilizers to fully hydrate for a smooth texture.
Why buy from a Calgary-based supplier like ChickenPieces.com?
Sourcing from a local Calgary supplier ensures faster transit times for Western Canada and simplified logistics. We have nearly 10 years of experience distributing 20,000 products to the Canadian hospitality industry.
