It's another of those things that remind you that the Japanese love their traditions: even in this day and age when all kinds of amazing ice creams and desserts are available anywhere, one of the most popular things to help fight the summer heat is kakigori, a paper cup filled with shaved ice and flavored with some brightly colored syrup. And while there are dozens of kakigori machines on the market, there is a certain pleasure in shaving the ice by hand – the way you can with the Swan Conee Manual Kakigori Machine!
Even as a manual shaved ice maker, though, the Swan Conee Manual Kakigori Machine stands out: instead of going the easy retro way (i.e., trying to imitate kakigori machines from 60-70 years ago), it features a very modern design with simple and elegant lines, fine-quality steel and ABS resin able to resist both high and low temperatures, and an easy-to-use mechanism with a swivel on the top. And it comes with two 200 cc (6.8 fl oz) cups so you can make two different types of kakigori as fast as possible!
