What do we need on the day?
A set up space of 4m (front facing) x 3m (depth) would be ideal.
We cannot carry the kit up any stairs – ground floor access or service lifts only. If the location is outside, we must have access via our van to unload / load at the outdoor setup location. Please tell us if access is across gravel or large grass areas where we cannot drive direct in the van – as we mayn need to factor in a second person to carry the kit (castor wheels will not roll across gravel!).
Bar physical dimentions; L157cm x H109cm x W82cm
Access to a mains power socket would be ideal. If this is not possible, contact us to discuss options.

House Flavours
Our default package inculudes 6 flavours from the following house flavours.
If you would like to swap any house flavours for the list of wider flavours that we have below, we can get those in stock for you, at a charge of £20 per flavour (minimum tub size is 2L, with c. 20 scoops).
Cherry gelato
Flecked with real cherry pieces and a swirl of cherry compote, it finishes with a gentle almond-like note. Cool, vibrant, and irresistibly summery.
Available as dairy or plant based.
Bueno gelato
Bueno gelato (inspired by the Kinder Bueno bar) is rich, indulgent, and dangerously smooth. It’s built on a creamy milk-and-hazelnut base, with a deep roasted nuttiness that feels warm and comforting.
Available as dairy only
Vanilla pod gelato
Vanilla pod gelato is quietly luxurious and beautifully pure. Made with real vanilla beans, it’s ivory-cream in color and dotted with tiny black specks of vanilla pods.
Available as dairy or plant based.
Pistachio verde gelato
Its texture is dense and velvety, almost buttery as it melts, with a lingering finish that’s elegant and grown-up. This is refined indulgence.
Available as dairy or plant based.
Apple pie gelato
A comforting, creamy gelato inspired by classic apple pie.
Swirled with spiced apple pieces, cinnamon warmth, and buttery pastry notes.
Like a scoop of homemade dessert—nostalgic, cosy, and utterly indulgent.
Available as dairy only
Chunky chocolate gelato
Silky gelato first, then bursts of solid chocolate that deepen the flavor and keep things exciting. Decadent, comforting, made for serious chocolate lovers—classic, satisfying & never boring.
Available as dairy only
Mint choclate chip gelato
Scattered throughout are fine shards of dark chocolate, adding a satisfying snap against the silky gelato. The cool mint and rich chocolate lingers beautifully.
Available as dairy or plant based.
Salted caramel popcorn gelato
Rich, and wildly addictive. A smooth, buttery caramel gelato—deeply sweet with a toasted sugar warmth—lifted by a subtle hit of sea salt. Folded in are crunchy pieces of caramel-coated popcorn.
Available as dairy only
Raspberry ripple gelato
Starts with a smooth, milky vanilla gelato base—shot through with vivid ribbons of raspberry sauce. The raspberry brings a sharp, juicy tang , cutting through the creaminess, keeping each bite fresh and lively.
Available as dairy only
Passion fruit sorbetto (V)
Vibrant, zesty, and explosively refreshing. Made without dairy, this delicious sorbet showcases the bold, tropical intensity of ripe passion fruit—brightly tangy, citrusy, and lightly floral with a mouth-watering sharpness.
Non dairy
Mango sorbetto (V)
Sunny, and bursting with tropical sweetness. Made without dairy, it highlights the lush, juicy flavour of ripe mangoes—naturally sweet with floral and honeyed notes. The taste is round, mellow, and full-bodied.
Non dairy
Watermelon sorbetto (V)
A refreshing, fruit sorbet bursting with juicy watermelon flavour.
Light and naturally sweet with a crisp, cooling finish.
Perfect for hot days, offering a clean and vibrant palate cleanser.
Non dairy
Custom flavours available (£20 each 2L tub)
