Product Description
The Roller Grill GES 40 is a countertop electric waffle iron designed specifically for producing ice cream waffle cones. It uses a patterned cooking plate to shape and cook batter into the familiar cone form, ready to be rolled and filled straight from the iron. As a single-plate unit, it produces one cone at a time — a straightforward piece of equipment built around consistent, repeatable results rather than bulk output.
In a working environment, the GES 40 performs well in settings where freshly made cones are part of the customer experience. The plate heats evenly and recovers quickly between cones, which allows a steady, manageable flow during normal service. Making cones in view of customers is a common approach in gelaterie, artisan ice cream counters, dessert cafés and soft-serve kiosks, and this unit suits that kind of visible, craft-led service well. It will, however, have natural limits under sustained high volume — a single plate can only do so much during a very busy period.
From a practical standpoint, the main strengths of this unit are its simplicity and its counter presence:
- Minimal training required — straightforward to operate front-of-house
- Compact footprint suits smaller counters and display setups
- Consistent plate contact produces even colour and texture across each cone
- Compatible with standard waffle batter or pre-made mixes
- Easy to clean down between and after service
Installation requires nothing beyond a stable, heat-resistant countertop surface and a standard plug-in power supply. There is no water connection or extraction requirement, which keeps setup simple in most environments.
This unit is well suited to smaller operations where handmade cones form part of the offer but are not required at very high throughput. For busier sites running extended service periods, a twin-plate or higher-capacity model would be worth considering. If you are weighing up whether a single-plate unit will keep pace with your service, we are happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- As a single-plate unit, output depends on your batter, rolling technique and recovery time, but most operators find it suits a steady flow rather than bulk production. It works well where cones are made to order or in small batches — if you are expecting sustained high demand, a twin-plate unit is likely to be more appropriate.
- The GES 40 is a plug-in electric unit that connects to a standard countertop power supply. It does not require a water connection, gas supply or dedicated extraction, which makes it straightforward to position wherever counter space allows.
- Its compact size and simple plug-in setup make it a practical choice for seasonal gelaterie, pop-up dessert stands and kiosk environments, provided a stable power supply is available. The absence of fixed installation requirements gives reasonable flexibility in terms of positioning.
