Can you tell us about ingredients for dietary requirements?

Yes. Ask us about the specific items you are considering and we will share the ingredient and allergen information we hold from our suppliers. We will not make claims we cannot back up, so we give you the information and let you decide what suits your guests.

Can you serve at a mosque, temple, gurdwara or church event?

We can serve at events organised by places of worship, subject to their permission and any rules about vehicles on site. Tell us about the venue and the timings, and we will work around prayers and services. A short call beforehand with the event lead helps us understand timings and etiquette.

Can you serve after sunset or in the evening?

Evening service is possible, particularly for gatherings that start after sunset. Let us know the timings and make sure the area where the van parks is lit. During Ramadan, for example, some families prefer a gathering after the evening meal, so we can arrive later and serve into the night where the venue allows.

Religious festivals are some of the biggest gatherings in a family's or community's year. Eid celebrations after Ramadan, Diwali parties, Vaisakhi gatherings, Christmas fairs and Hanukkah events all bring together families of every age. Many communities in London mark these days with open-air events, family parties and gatherings at places of worship and community centres. Each has its own customs, and we work around them.

An ice cream van fits naturally into these celebrations as something for children and adults alike. Our vans are 100% electric while serving, so they make very little noise and produce no fumes. That makes them easier to place close to a community centre, a hall or a family home, and more respectful near a place of worship than a van with its engine running.

We are happy to work around the timings and customs of your celebration. Tell us when the main gathering happens, any times we should pause service, and anything about the menu you would like to check. For questions about ingredients and dietary requirements, ask us directly and we will give you clear information from our suppliers. We are a London business and we treat each celebration with care.

Why our vans suit it

Quiet near places of worshipWith no engine running while we serve, the van does not intrude on prayers, services or speeches. We keep the chimes off unless you ask.
No fumes at the hatchCelebrations draw young children and older relatives. Our engine is off while we serve, so nobody is breathing in fumes at the hatch.
Fits the calendarFestival dates move each year with lunar and religious calendars. Tell us the date as soon as it is known and we will hold it where we can.

Planning ice cream for religious celebrationsPractical tips

Book early for moving dates

Many festivals follow lunar calendars, so dates shift year to year and may be confirmed late. Ask us about a provisional booking and confirm when the date is set.

Ask about ingredients

Families often have specific dietary requirements tied to their faith. Ask us about ingredients for the items you are considering, and we will give you clear information.

Agree pause times

Tell us when prayers, readings or speeches happen. We will close the hatch and wait during those times.

Plan for a crowd

Community celebrations can draw large numbers in a short window. A short menu of quick items keeps the queue moving.

Check site permission

For events in parks or on public land, the council or landowner may need to approve food traders. Check early and we will send our documents.
