Stöckel

Stöckel is a German manufacturer of professional ice cream scoops (Eisportionierer) and foodservice articles, based in Eutin in northern Germany. The brand traces its origins to the 1920s, when master mechanic Carl Stöckel developed and produced the first ice cream scoops of the type still used today. Since 1946, all Stöckel products have been made by the family business in Eutin, and the company describes itself as having manufactured high-quality ice cream scoops and foodservice articles for professional use for almost 100 years. The core of the range is the Original stöckel® portioner, offered in more than 20 models and over 23 sizes. Scoops range from the classic round ball of 1/100 litre (Ø 30 mm) up to 1/4 litre (Ø 100 mm), and there are also models with oval bowls as well as shapes for ice cream hearts, squares and flowers. A dedicated scoop has been developed for left-handed users. Beyond ice cream, the portioners are used for accurately portioning and plating consistent portions of foods such as burger patties, cake batter and pralines. The scoops are marketed on high quality, extreme durability and perfect handling. Alongside scoops, Stöckel produces a broader programme of articles for ice cream sales and the hospitality trade. This includes portioner rinsing systems designed for hygienic ice cream sales with very low water consumption, ice cream cone holders, napkin dispensers in stainless steel 18/10 as built-in or table models, counter displays, spoon and drinking straw dispensers, cutlery and menu card holders. The Falafelportionierer (falafel scoop) received the IF Product Design Award in 2016. Stöckel ice cream scoops are used worldwide in ice cream parlours, bakeries, canteens and kitchens. Stöckel positions itself as a specialist for ice cream scoops and emphasises "Made in Germany" quality, achieved through continuous further development and improvement as well as trusting, partnership-based cooperation with customers. The company remains a family-owned private business and is not listed on a stock exchange.

The history of Stöckel begins in the 1920s, when master mechanic Carl Stöckel developed and produced the first ice cream scoops of the kind that are still known and used today. This early innovation established the company's specialisation in portioning tools for ice cream and other foods. Since 1946, all Stöckel products have been manufactured by the family business in Eutin in northern Germany. The company describes itself as having produced high-quality ice cream scoops and foodservice articles for professional use for almost 100 years, a continuity that spans several generations of the Stöckel family. Over the decades, the product range expanded from the classic ice cream scoop into a broader programme for ice cream sales and the hospitality trade. The Original stöckel® portioner line grew to more than 20 models in over 23 sizes, covering classic round balls from 1/100 litre (Ø 30 mm) to 1/4 litre (Ø 100 mm), oval-bowl scoops, and special shapes for ice cream hearts, squares and flowers, as well as a dedicated scoop for left-handed users. The scoops also found use beyond ice cream, for accurately portioning and plating consistent portions of burger patties, cake batter and pralines. Additional products were developed around the ice cream trade, including portioner rinsing systems designed to meet hygiene requirements for ice cream sales while consuming very little water, ice cream cone holders, napkin dispensers in stainless steel 18/10 as built-in or table models, counter displays, spoon and drinking straw dispensers, cutlery and menu card holders. In 2016, the company's Falafelportionierer (falafel scoop) received the IF Product Design Award, reflecting continued product development. Stöckel continues to operate as a family-owned private company in Eutin, serving ice cream parlours, bakeries, canteens and kitchens worldwide, and maintaining its "Made in Germany" manufacturing claim through continuous improvement and cooperation with customers.
