A live gelato cart for your event.
We pull up to your wedding, brand activation, or party with a battery-powered cart and churn fresh gelato in front of your guests. Pick from twenty signature flavors — Cookie Monster, Ube, Pistachio — or have us develop a custom flavor named after the bride and groom, your brand, or whatever you dream up.
We make any flavor.
Pick from twenty signatures we've already perfected — or dream up your own and we'll develop it from scratch. Color, name, story: yours to direct.

Questions we get asked
How does the custom flavor work?
Tell us your concept — a flavor profile, a name, a color palette, a story. We develop and test the flavor with you in the weeks before your event. By the day of, it's yours, named, and ready to serve.
Can you wrap the cart in our branding?
Yes. For brand activations and corporate events, we apply a custom decal that turns the cart into your branded centerpiece. Two-week lead time for design and production.
Do you need a power outlet?
No. The cart runs on battery for 4-6 hours. We set up indoors, outdoors, on rooftops, in vineyards, on the beach — anywhere with a 4-foot square of floor space.
How far do you travel?
The full DMV. Within 30 miles of Chantilly, VA included in base. Beyond that, $1.50/mile. We have served events from Richmond to Baltimore.
What about dietary restrictions?
We routinely make dairy-free sorbet, vegan options, and allergen-friendly batches. Tell us what you need; we work it in.
Are you insured?
Yes. $1M/$2M general liability. We provide a Certificate of Insurance naming your venue as additionally insured on request.
