摘要

The techniques described herein provide, in one embodiment, a dual-axis mixer for food products that comprises a product holder that is configured to hold a sealed product cup containing a food product to be mixed. The mixer also comprises a primary axis of rotation about a central axis, and a secondary axis of rotation radially offset from the central axis, the secondary axis positioned to rotate around the primary axis. According to the illustrative embodiment, the product holder is located at the secondary axis and is configured to rotate about the secondary axis, the primary axis of rotation provides centripetal force to the food product as it rotates around the primary axis, and the secondary axis rotates the product holder to churn the food product within the product cup.
