Miami Naranja Piña Ice Cream Trailers & Carts

Naranja Piña, located in Miami, Florida, is an ice cream shop that specializes in Cuban gelato – a unique combination of Cuban ice cream and artisan Italian gelato. Can’t make it to there in person? Now, you can enjoy its distinctive ice cream flavors without having to drive there!

Recently, Naranja Piña debuted its own ice cream trailers and gelato carts, which can be found on West 4th Avenue Valsan of Hialeah and special occasions like birthday parties. These trailers and carts were fully equipped and offered over 40 ice cream flavors.

Our team is honored to have collaborated with Naranja Piña in designing and building their trailers and carts from scratch. Keep reading to learn more about Naranja Piña's custom ice cream trailers and gelato carts.

Naranja Piña has been running their mobile food trailer business for a long time, with a 13ft ice cream trailer. This time, they wanted something smaller, or to be precise, a mini version of their own ice cream trailer.

Naranja Piña's ice cream trailer is a dual axle trailer featuring a roundtop. The good news is, we have the same concession trailer model in a smaller size. The 250WD is an upgraded roundtop food trailer model – its width expanded to 7ft, with a length and height of 8ft each. However, to make this small food trailer look exactly like Naranja Piña's trailer, especially in appearance, a considerable amount of design work is needed. How did we achieve this?

Vinyl Wrap!

This allows us to apply custom graphics and patterns on the surface of the small food trailer, perfectly replicating the unique look of Naranja Piña's trailer, right down to the black trim on both ends of the trailer frame! Thanks to everything provided by Naranja Piña, our designers were able to accomplish this.

At the same time, we made some changes to the ice cream trailer design for an even better user experience.

Ice Cream Trailer Design

 

Designing and building the trailer interior follow standardized processes, which include wiring, and insulating, installing inner walls, ceilings, floors, and so on. Naranja Piña had no additional requirements, as long as the trailer could pass health inspections and provide freezer space for their ice cream. Our trailer designers made some slight modifications to the basic trailer configuration to meet these specifications.

Please look at the following ice cream trailer design and layout diagrams. Let's explain their cleverness.

 

Following the above configuration, we customized four ice cream trailers, each with the same inclusions:
 

Most health inspectors ask for four sinks. Installing so many sinks in an 8ft small food trailer is not a challenge in itself. The real challenge is figuring out where to put them—compliant yet not space-gobbling. In the default design, the sinks are embedded into the rear workbench. However, as mentioned earlier, the workbench at the back of this ice cream trailer is narrow, making it impossible to seamlessly install our sinks.

What if we install the sinks at one end of the trailer, directly facing the door? This way, they wouldn't narrow the aisle or take up too much counter space. After precise measurement and cutting, a 3-compartment sink with a drainboard and side splash, along with a hand sink, were snugly integrated into two countertops. Below, there was space for five water tanks, and on the wall, multiple outlets were installed for the water pumps.

The best freezer for storing and selling gelato? It's the ice cream display freezer! The model we offer comes with a glass door and window (similar to most ice cream displays), but it also has an additional window on the front for clearer visibility. We opted for the smallest one and installed it beside the door. All of this is to maximize counter space.
