The Omcan 48101 Funnel Cake and Donut Fryer
The Omcan CE-CN-0030-FN is a countertop natural gas donut and funnel cake fryer with a 30-pound oil capacity (15.4 to 30.9 lb / 7 to 30.9 lb working range) and two tube burners producing 50,000 BTU per hour. The wide, shallow fry pot measures 20" x 21" x 4.3", which is specifically proportioned for floating items like donuts and funnel cakes that need to bob on the surface of the oil rather than sink to the bottom of a deep pot. The open surface gives you room to pipe funnel cake batter directly into the hot oil in your desired pattern.
Intuitive Millivolt Control with Standby Pilot
The millivolt control system is self-powered by the pilot flame, which means the fryer does not need an electrical connection to operate the gas controls. A standby pilot stays lit and ready, so ignition is immediate when you turn the burner on. This is practical for operations like fair vendors, food trucks, and seasonal concession stands where reliable, simple controls matter more than electronic features. The gas system is convertible between natural gas and propane, giving you flexibility to match whatever fuel source is available at your location. Two tube burners spread heat evenly across the bottom of the fry pot so you get consistent oil temperature from edge to edge.
Mesh Trays Included for Easy Product Handling
Mesh frying trays are included for lifting finished donuts and funnel cakes out of the oil cleanly. At 103.6 lb and 23" x 29.6" x 19.7", the fryer is compact enough for a countertop setup at a donut shop, bakery, fair booth, or concession trailer. The natural gas connection keeps operating costs lower than an equivalent electric fryer, and the 50,000 BTU output provides fast oil recovery between batches so you can maintain a steady production pace during busy periods.
