Abstract
A frozen dessert dispenser for dispensing ice cream etc. includes a heat-insulating box having a side formed with an opening closed and opened by a heat-insulating door, a dispensing cylinder including a piston and a pack accommodating chamber defined between the piston and a lid closing an upper opening of the cylinder. A frozen dessert pack is accommodated into the pack accommodating chamber when the lid is opened. The dispensing cylinder is mounted on a bracket further mounted on a backside of the door. The bracket positions the dispensing cylinder in the heat-insulating box and is rotated relative to the door so that the dispensing cylinder is inclined from a standing position where the dispensing cylinder stands along the door to a inclined position where an upper end of the dispensing cylinder is spaced away from the door.
