A home and professional ice cream product making machine comprises a main body (2), housing a refrigerating unit (4), and a secondary body (3), removably associated with the main body (2), comprising a mixing and cooling unit (5) with a vertical axis (X) interacting with the refrigerating unit (4) the mixing and cooling unit (5) comprises, at one end, a lid (6) for allowing access to the inside of it and a stirrer (7) inside the mixing and cooling unit (5). The secondary body (3) comprises a hollow space (9), surrounding the mixing and cooling unit (5) and integral with it, containing a coolant designed to cool the mixing and cooling unit (5) when the secondary body (3) is associated with the main body (2), during machine (1) operation, and to keep the mixing and cooling unit (5) cool when the secondary body (3) is separated from the main body (2).
