Science of Gelato & Ice Cream
Create. Balance. Perfect. Anywhere.
IceForm Pro is the serious formulation studio for gelato, ice cream, and ganache professionals. Trusted by manufacturers, chefs, technologists, and artisans, it brings the mathematics of frozen and confectionery dessert science into a clean, intuitive workspace – on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Why IceForm Pro
Every recipe is a balance of fat, sugars, solids, water, sweetness, and freezing behaviour. IceForm Pro turns that balance into precise, transparent mathematics – giving you full control over flavour, texture, cost, and nutrition.
Two Ways to Balance
- The adaptive IceForm profile – the original balancing engine at the heart of the app. MSNF, Sugars and Total Solids ranges automatically adapt to the fat level you choose with the slider; POD and PAC are balanced independently. Every limit is tunable in Settings.
- 30 built-in balancing templates for specific product categories, grounded in established gelato and ice cream formulation science. Duplicate any built-in profile or build your own from scratch and tailor every indicator range to your style.
Powerful Features
- Automatic Recipe Balancing – multi-pass mathematical optimization brings Fat, MSNF, Sugars, Total Solids, Water, POD, PAC, Protein and more into target ranges while respecting ingredient locks and per-ingredient min/max constraints.
- Ganache Mode – dedicated recipe type with Aw, Brix, SFC@20/28, pH, caramelization & melting points, plastic range, shelf life, consistency, fatty-acid profile (SFA/MUFA/PUFA), cocoa components, and formulation ratios.
