Icing & Fondant Melters and Warmers

In the bakery, melting chocolate, icing and fondant is a daily task. Make it easier on yourself by having melting equipment that is compatible with all three baking materials. Savage Bros. Co. manufactures a chocolate melter configured for bakery icings and fondants. This melting equipment is a powerhouse bakery machine. It’s capable of becoming an icing melter because of the higher wattage heaters with higher upper temperature limits, unlike most chocolate melters. Other fondant melters can’t reach the high temperatures to make it pliable in a time efficient manner. Look no further for icing warmers because it will be difficult to match Savage Bros. Co. versatility and compatibility.

The melter/warmer is made completely of stainless steel. The bottom drive agitator allows for full top access and at 12 RPMs, variable speed is available as an option. With water-friendly operator controls the fondant warmer is easily cleaned. Wash-down heavy duty transmission and a drive motor also assist in the cleaning process. The entire melting and warming process is simple with Savage Bros. Co. icing and fondant melters and warmers.

Begin your Baking Venture with Commercial Baking Equipment by Savage Bros.

Starting your own business is a whirlwind of excitement and stressful situations. All of us at Savage Bros. Co., a bakery equipment manufacturer, want you to be prepared for your opening day with the proper industrial baking equipment. Using consumer sized mixing bowls is a thing of the past because nothing is small about your operation. The following is a list of the three main pieces of commercial baking equipment you should have at your bakery:
• Lifting and Pouring Bowls & Containers
• Icing and Fondant Melters
• Industrial Mixers

If you do not have commercial bakery equipment, your bakery will not be able to keep up with large orders. Your time will be used inefficiently as you are constantly making little batches to fill several orders of 100 or more cookies. By using industrial baking equipment you will not sacrifice quality, but if you don’t use large capacity equipment you will sacrifice quantity.

Our History

Phillip Savage immigrated to the United States in 1833. He and his wife had two sons, Richard and Edward. In 1855, the young men founded the Savage Brothers Company. They committed themselves and succeeding generations to design and manufacture the finest machinery for the candy-maker.

Beginning with wood burning and coal fired candy stoves to today’s efficient gas and electric models, the Savage family owned and operated the company until 1976, when its last generation did not produce any children to carry on. When the final Savage was well into her seventies, she passed the company to the present ownership group.

In 2005 we proudly celebrated the 150th anniversary of continuous service! Today’s Savage Bros. Co. remains true to the commitment made by the brothers over 150 years ago. We listen to and work with our customers to build equipment that will help them improve productivity and make better confections.
