INTRODUCTION

Hello, my name is Eliška Hudcová & I’m 36 years old. Welcome in my ice cream world.

Thank you for choosing my project and for the time you’ve spent reading my story and offer.
If you decide wisely and continue to develop your dream with me, you won’t regret it.

Chauwess Ice Cream is a newcomer to the market. It’s a unique production of
soft serve ice cream per portion made from real fruit.

What makes it unique are these things? 
You choose the ingredients for your ice cream, decide how sweet it should be,
and whether it should have a creamy or purely fruity base. Before we get to the actual production,
please take a moment to read about how it all started.

As a child in December 1998, I visited Traralgon Creek on the southern coast of Australia, east of Melbourne.
Less than two kilometers from the hotel where I stayed was a large shopping center. I remember the path to the mall being straight and feeling like it took forever to walk, at least for an eleven-year-old girl.

At the end of this hot, endless road, they sold “my ice cream.” When I first saw the wide range of fruit and ice cream bases, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Until then, I only knew soft serve vanilla with chocolate, Mrože, blueberries with sugar, or strawberries with whipped cream. I never would have imagined how easy it could be to make such delicious, fragrant ice cream that tastes like childhood. It was like a “Big bang.”
Like watching someone cook, and even before tasting, you know you’ll love the food.

I chose a yogurt base with Canadian blueberries. I couldn’t take my eyes off the girl making the ice cream. I still remember every move she made. She put a huge piece of yogurt into the cone, sprinkled blueberries with a scoop, and pressed the lever into the cone. At first, only white ice cream came out of the other end of the cone, but in a moment, it changed color to purple. Three seconds later, it was done. I got the biggest soft-serve ice cream I had ever seen. It smelled like a blueberry heaven. I tasted it and knew this was a fateful encounter!
Soft serve made from blueberries… I still have that taste on my tongue. So healthy, so refreshing.
From that day on, my mom had to go for ice cream every day until we went home to Czech republic.

 

Chauwess Ice Cream is a small company founded by me in 2020. In the fall of 2020, I sold my beloved Mercedes E. I started with the first plans and first drawings of what the sales cart could look like. I came across the first ice cream machine almost by chance. I spent a whole 2 months looking for such a food truck, so I had the money for it, a large technical certificate, and something small in my account to realize my plan.

In 2021, May 17th, the second Covid summer. On Horní Square in Jablonec nad Nisou, I opened the first branch. Anyone who knows Jablonec knows it’s either uphill or raining here. On top of that, I had health problems, and I had almost 2 months closed in the main season. I wasn’t strong or experienced enough to hand over the operation to someone else. Despite all the difficulties, my boyfriend and I managed it, and for the first summer, we managed to make the ice cream known to people. 
The 2022 season was better. I opened a stand on Horní Square, and within the first 3 months, customers brought us so many crowns that I managed to build and open a second branch near the Liberec swimming pool by June.

To this day, I have three branches. My journey was a bit thorny, and sad, just like on a swing. Eventually, humbly and with a clear conscience, I got to where I am today. All branches are open from April to the end of September, and every year I open a new branch. This year’s 4th season, I would like to pass on my experience to someone and send my little business a little higher. I hope it’s you!

The main product is soft serve fruit ice cream. It is made from ice cream bases and real fruit. You can order all supplies from us in regular deliveries. You will receive storage and serving equipment from us, all necessary utensils. We’ll train the staff. We’ll explain how everything works. You will receive the necessary documentation (packaging, inventories, HACCP, occupational safety).

The first secondary product is coffee and iced coffee. If you already have a coffee machine in your operation, you’ll save money on the coffee machine. If you don’t have a coffee machine, we’ll provide one. You will go through a basic barista course with us. We’ll teach you the basics about coffee, how to store it properly, process it, how the processing of coffee beans affects the overall taste and final experience. We’ll teach you how to serve coffee correctly – not only with hot coffee but also with iced coffee. You won’t miss out on how to froth milk correctly and some latte art.

The second secondary product is non-alcoholic beverages. Don’t spend money on expensive unhealthy syrups full of sugar unnecessarily. Some syrups are thermally processed, and we will provide them to you. Furthermore, we will teach you how to make your own fresh lemonade syrups. You’ll see, you’ll fall in love with them. Their production couldn’t be easier. Customers will notice the taste difference, and you will save money. No one can take away these experiences from you.

It depends a lot on whether we install into an existing operation or build a completely new operation – a food truck. Packages are divided according to the number of products. After payment, all equipment remains in your ownership. You are only committed to 4 conditions. 
1. You order all raw materials from us.
2. You operate sales under our brand.
3. You comply with prescribed rules and cleanliness.
4. For 10 years, neither you nor any of your employees may engage in
a similar business or work in the same company.

OWN BRANCH

 

 EXPAND YOUR NETWORK TO 3 BRANCHES.

ON THE THIRD BRANCH, YOU WILL RECEIVE A
DISCOUNT OF EUR 11 500

 

Brick-and-mortar stores or food trucks? And what about a combination of both?

It’s a mini branch with TO GO products. You don’t need bins or toilets. It has been operating for the third year with a turnover of EUR 30 000 at one fixed branch for six months, i.e., for the duration of the operation in the summer season from April to September. Every year, we expand our presence with a new branch.
Our customers are satisfied and regularly return to us. Several new customers visit us daily,
recommended by satisfied clients who have already been to us.

The ice cream is made from a creamy ice cream base. The manufacturing process allows us countless combinations. There are several ice cream bases: vanilla, yogurt, chocolate, caramel, stracciatella, or pistachio.

In a 1:1 ratio, frozen real fruit according to the current offer is added to this base. It’s a unique and entirely new manufacturing process, and the final product can be called a healthier soft serve made from fruit. The ice cream is not as sweet as classic ice cream and has added value, real fruit.

The ice cream is made using a fruit base. The manufacturing process allows us countless combinations. The vats contain prepared fruit, which is usable as a base, such as banana. Frozen real fruit is added to this base, such as black currant. The final product is 100% fruit ice cream without any added chemicals, coloring, etc. The ice cream can be sweetened during production. We can do it all 😊

    For coffee production, we use either semi-automatic coffee maker brand Delongi. It is a secondary product, and we don’t want coffee preparation to take up most of the staff’s time. While we won’t paint a swan in milk foam for you, the taste of our selected 100% Arabica coffee will make up for the missing picture. The coffee is directly intended for semi-automatic coffee makers, and I spent several years selecting it. The coffee is not acidic, strong in a small espresso, and delightful in a cappuccino. If you also care about coffee, we will supply a quality lever espresso machine with an external grinder. You choose which one is right for you. From us, you will receive instructions for the best hot and iced coffees that people will come back for!

Flavors alternate, and every day there is a selection of at least two. We supply lemonade syrups; for fresh lemonades, you prepare them yourself according to the recipe. It is purely natural – a secret 😉 recipe without the addition of preservatives or coloring. The “worst” added ingredient could be cane sugar.
