What temperature should a cake display fridge be?
In Australia, chilled desserts should be stored between 0 °C and 4 °C to remain safe and maintain quality (Food Safety Australia). Keeping food at or below 5 °C slows the growth of harmful bacteria.
Artisan’s commercial cake display refrigerators are designed to maintain a consistent +1 °C to +4 °C. This range keeps cream-topped cakes firm, fruit fresh and chocolate decorations in perfect condition. Select models also allow slight adjustments for particular products.
How to clean a cake display fridge?
Keeping a cake display fridge clean ensures food safety, reliable performance and an impressive look for your customers. A weekly routine helps prevent build-up and odours.
Step-by-step cleaning guide:
- Switch off and unplug the unit.
- Remove all products, trays and shelving.
- Wipe down interior and exterior surfaces with a food-safe cleaner.
- Rinse removable parts with warm water, then dry thoroughly.
- Polish the glass with a streak-free spray for clear visibility.
- Make sure everything is completely dry before restocking.
Where should a commercial fridge be placed?
Placement plays a key role in how well a cake display cabinet performs. A poorly positioned unit can cause uneven cooling, higher energy costs and food safety risks.
Best practice guidelines:
- Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Allow space for airflow around the unit.
- Avoid high-humidity areas to minimise condensation.
- Position where customers see the display cakes, without blocking staff workflow.
- Place on a stable, level surface to reduce wear on the compressor.
Strategic placement not only keeps your display cakes looking fresh and delicious but also ensures the fridge operates efficiently.
