JUKA Carmella NE 945 mm Neutral Confectionery Showcase

A neutral confectionery showcase keeps cakes, pastries and desserts visible without refrigeration or heating. The unit relies on ambient air circulation to maintain the display at room temperature, letting the natural colours and textures of the products stand out under LED lighting. The absence of a refrigeration or heating element simplifies installation and reduces energy use, while the clear glass construction ensures customers see every detail from the counter or aisle.

The showcase is loaded from the rear through sliding double-glazed doors. The operator arranges the confectionery on the non-adjustable glass shelves, which are lit from above to highlight the items. The double-glazed front and side panels keep the display dust-free and reduce condensation, while the wooden casing and powder-coated steel frame give the unit a professional finish. Golden, silver or black serigraphy on the glass corners adds a decorative touch without obstructing the view.

Operation is straightforward: the unit is positioned on the counter or floor, connected to a standard power supply for the LED lighting, and filled with products. The sliding doors open smoothly to allow restocking or cleaning, and the forced cooling system ensures even air distribution around the display. No temperature settings are required, making the showcase ready for immediate use once switched on.

The construction combines powder-coated steel for the structural frame with a wooden casing for a refined appearance. The glass shelves are fixed in place, providing a stable platform for heavier items. Double-glazed panels on the front, sides and rear doors improve insulation and reduce external noise, creating a quiet, unobtrusive display.

The LED lighting illuminates the confectionery without generating heat, preserving the freshness and presentation of the products. The lighting is integrated into the unit and cannot be adjusted, ensuring consistent brightness across the display. The forced cooling system circulates air to prevent hot spots, though it does not alter the temperature of the showcase.

The 945 mm width provides ample space for a variety of confectionery items, while the 160 kg weight ensures stability on the counter or floor. The footprint is designed to fit standard worktop depths, allowing the showcase to be placed against a wall or used as a freestanding unit. The double-glazed sliding doors save space compared to hinged alternatives, making the unit practical for smaller kitchens or busy service areas.

Cleaning involves wiping the glass shelves and panels with a damp cloth to remove fingerprints or dust. The wooden casing and steel frame can be cleaned with a mild detergent, while the LED lighting requires no maintenance. The forced cooling system should be checked periodically to ensure unobstructed airflow, though no filters or moving parts are accessible to the user.

The Carmella showcase is available in three versions: refrigerated (CH), hot (GR) and neutral (NE). The neutral model is described here. Finishes are available in golden, silver or black, with matching serigraphy on the glass corners. The unit is designed for 90 and 130 models with sliding doors, while the 60 model uses hinged doors.

The showcase is categorised under confectionery display equipment in the JUKA catalogue.
