Milkshake Tubs

Shmoo is the format most UK venues use for milkshakes because it is genuinely simple: one scoop of powder, milk, thirty seconds on the spindle mixer. No ice cream, no freezer, no waste.

Powders come in 1.8kg tubs — Chocolate, Strawberry and Vanilla are the three that sell; anything beyond those is a nice-to-have. Each tub yields roughly 30–35 regular shakes depending on your portion.

Because it is shelf-stable, you can carry milkshake as a menu item without committing freezer space or writing off stock in a quiet week — which is what makes it work for pubs, cafés and leisure sites with unpredictable footfall.

You will also need a spindle mixer, plus beakers and glasses and toppings.
