The invention relates to an ice cream machine (1) having a filling zone (5) and an emptying zone (9). The ice cream machine (1) comprises a rotatable unit (10), a mould (20) for receiving ice cream, a stick providing arrangement (50), and a guiding structure arranged to prevent more than one stick (52) from entering the groove (26) of the mould (20) from the stick providing arrangement (50). The stick providing arrangement (50) is arranged such that a rotation of the rotatable unit (10) causes the groove (26) to match the position of the stick providing arrangement (50) and thereby allow a single stick (52) to enter the groove, wherein further rotation of the rotatable unit (10) causes one of the sidewalls of the groove (26) to bring the stick (52) along the rotational movement.
