Part of our luxury ice cream range, our soft-serve ice cream machine is perfect for weddings, corporate events, exhibitions and private celebrations across London. Premium ingredients, professional service and industry-leading equipment combine to create a memorable guest experience that attracts attention and complements your event’s overall look and feel.
Unlike standard machine hire, we provide a complete managed service including delivery, setup, operation and collection. Our professional team handles everything, ensuring smooth, reliable service throughout your event.
Using premium Frisiana mix and top-of-the-range Carpigiani machines, we serve exceptionally smooth, creamy soft serve with gluten-free options as standard and vegan alternatives available on request.
Starting from £1,500 + VAT
The daily rate includes 100 servings. Additional servings are charged at £3.50 + VAT each. All stands come with uniformed operators.
Our soft serve experience is inspired by the nostalgic appeal of a classic Mr Whippy, but elevated for premium events.
We use high-quality Frisiana mix – a superior product designed to deliver a richer flavour, smoother texture, and a more luxurious finish than standard cash-and-carry alternatives.
Every serving is gluten-free as standard (please speak to a member of staff regarding toppings), and vegan options are available on request.
Behind the scenes, we operate industry-leading Carpigiani machines – regarded as the gold standard in commercial soft serve equipment. The result is consistently smooth, creamy ice cream served quickly and efficiently throughout your event.
Anyone can hire a machine. What sets us apart is the complete service we provide. Every booking includes:

From our presentation to our equipment and uniforms, everything is designed to complement premium surroundings.
While some suppliers arrive with little more than a freezer and a folding table, our setup is designed to become part of the event itself – visually appealing, professionally presented and guaranteed to attract attention.
The stand naturally creates interest, conversation and footfall, making it an effective feature as well as a memorable guest experience.
Our soft serve stations can be fully customised to support your brand, campaign or exhibition presence. Branding options include:
With a compact footprint, our setup is ideal for exhibitions and promotional events, helping attract visitors without taking up valuable floor space.
It’s not just an ice cream station – it’s a branded engagement opportunity that draws people in and leaves a lasting impression.

★★★★★What a success! Thank you so much for working with me on my crazy schedule leading up to the event. Both the Soft Scoop Ice Cream and Doughnuts were a huge hit! The teams who worked the station on both days were also fantastic – prompt, fun, professional. A truly delightful highlight for our event.
Yes, we can offer a vegan mix – Naturali – but all servings would need to be vegan. The machine only has one hopper so we can’t offer this as an option alongside a non-dairy-free or vegan choice.
We offer a vanilla-based mix, and then clients can choose from three sauces (caramel, chocolate, strawberry) and five sweet toppings (mini Smarties, mini marshmallows, hundreds and thousands, dark chocolate sprinkles, trio of chocolate balls).
Our soft serve ice cream stand measures 0.7m x 1.1m. It has a very small footprint and so is ideal for exhibitions or conferences where space is at a premium.
Absolutely, yes – the whole stand can be wrapped in your logos/colours, and the process is super-simple. Our team will send you an online template – simply fill out your design using Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator and our team will control the rest of the process. We’ll deliver the stand to you branded and ready for action.
Yes, there is an additional charge. We offer a one colour/two colour screen print on a white 8oz tub. Simply send your logo as a .png file and we’ll take care of the rest of the process. Costs vary depending on quantities and we have a lead-time of 3 weeks.
Yes, the ice cream stand uses a single 13amp (3000w) domestic plug and wall socket.
We would be delighted if you would call or email us to discuss your requirements...
