Ice Cream Manufacturing ERP Software

Your flavours change with the seasons. Your production system shouldn't fall apart when they do.

FlexiBake manages the complexity that ice cream manufacturers live with every day --- seasonal demand swings, pasteurisation batch logging, mix-tank scheduling, temperature-controlled storage, and the lot traceability that regulators and retailers both demand.

Ice Cream Challenges

Why ice cream manufacturers need purpose-built software

Seasonal demand that breaks your planning

Summer volume can be three to five times your winter baseline. When demand spikes, production planning has to scale --- more batches, more ingredients, more freezer throughput. If your planning tool is a spreadsheet, scaling means rebuilding it. FlexiBake generates production schedules from orders, so when orders triple, the schedule adjusts without manual reconstruction.

Mix-tank and pasteuriser scheduling by memory

Your pasteuriser runs on time cycles. Your mix tanks have capacity limits. Your production manager holds the schedule in their head --- which tanks are available when, what's pasteurising, what's ready for the freezer. FlexiBake tracks equipment availability and schedules batches against real capacity, so the plan accounts for hold times and turnaround.

Cold chain gaps between production and delivery

Product moves from the mix tank to the pasteuriser to the filling line to the hardening tunnel to cold storage to the delivery truck. Every handoff is a potential cold chain documentation gap. FlexiBake tracks lot numbers, temperatures, and timestamps through each stage --- so when a retailer asks for cold chain verification, you pull a report instead of assembling a binder.

Ingredient lot tracking across blends

A single flavour might use cream from three different lots, sugar from two suppliers, and inclusions from another. When a customer calls about a quality issue with lot 7241, you need to trace backward through every ingredient lot that went into that batch --- and forward to every customer who received product from it. FlexiBake does this in seconds.

Key Capabilities

How FlexiBake works for ice cream manufacturers

Production scheduling with equipment constraints

FlexiBake schedules production around your real equipment --- mix tanks, pasteurisers, filling lines, and blast freezers. Hold times, cleaning cycles, and changeover between flavours are built into the schedule. When your vanilla is pasteurising and your strawberry mix is waiting, the system knows.

Recipe management with seasonal formulations

Manage base recipes, flavour variants, seasonal limited editions, and inclusion specifications in one system. FlexiBake scales recipes automatically for any batch size --- whether you're producing 50 litres of a seasonal test batch or 5,000 litres of your core vanilla.

Lot tracking and cold chain traceability

End-to-end lot traceability from raw milk and cream receipt through pasteurisation, mixing, filling, hardening, storage, and delivery. Every ingredient lot links to every batch, and every batch links to every customer shipment. Cold chain documentation maintained as a byproduct of production tracking.

Inventory management with expiry and temperature zones

Real-time inventory for raw dairy ingredients (short shelf life), packaging materials, inclusions, and finished goods in cold storage. FEFO enforcement ensures the oldest product ships first. Temperature zone tracking separates refrigerated ingredients from frozen finished goods.

Nutritional labelling for every flavour

FDA and CFIA-compliant Nutrition Facts panels generated directly from your recipes. When you reformulate a flavour or change a supplier, the label updates. Allergen declarations maintained automatically from ingredient-level data --- critical for ice cream with nut, dairy, egg, and soy allergens present across the product line.
