Cooling Tables & Heating Tables

Posted on by

In the candy making industry, temperature is extremely important to the finished product. Things like chocolate may need to be cooled down, while other materials, like peanut brittle, are easier to form when warm. If you really want to make sure that your sugary treats are tasty, consistent temperatures are key.

The candy making equipment at Savage Bros. is specially made with these important considerations in mind. Our heating and cooling tables are constructed out of stainless steel and contain unique water-jacketed plates that allow water to flow underneath the table, ensuring consistent temperatures across the entire surface.
