OVERVIEW

Icecream Social creates handmade, small batch icecream, gelato and sorbet from fresh local ingredients. We run a genuine 1980s icecream van (but with better icecream) and do weddings in Melbourne, Castlemaine, Bendigo and beyond.

We work in consultaion with you to work a flavour list unique to your event. We love churning new and different icecreams, and can make you a special flavour just for your wedding. Oh, and Frankie magazine liked us too. 

About

Once upon a time, Craig MacDonald got invited round to his neighbour Helen Addison-Smith's place. She made him icecream in the shape of a lamington, and BAAM, he was in love! With the idea of starting an icecream business, that is. The rest took a bit longer. Now Craig and Helen are partners in icecream and life. Craig is a sculptor and foundry man, and creates all the extraordinary vans, carts and shops that Icecream Social scoops in. Helen makes the icecream. It's a nice life.

FAQ

You can get up to eight flavours. We normally carry chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. . . but the rest is up to you!

We sure do! We love sorbets and churning icecream with coconut milk and almond milk. 

Yep, sure is! Our add ins sometimes have gluten, but we can work around that if you let us know.

Our landspeed record is 500 an hour. Mate, our arms were tired. Normally we can do about 120 an hour with some amusing small talk. If you'd like us to go faster, we can whack another staff member in the van and double the speed.

I was looking into cakes for quite a while and even though the tasting was the first thing we did to plan our wedding I couldn't bring myself to pay that much money for a cake! That's when I discovered Ice Cream Social. They have the most AMAZING flavours (Chocolate Brownie, Salted Caramel and Lemon Lime & Bitters were my faves) and the prettiest little truck. My guests LOVED the different dessert option and my ice-cream fiend husband was very happy. We'll always remember our wedding icecream and look forward to the trip in to Thornbury to bring our tastebuds back to that amazing day. Side note - the email communication was perfect and informative and Helen was hilarious.

It was a beautiful cake! It was a small cake and it was perfect for the number of the guests as we had a small wedding. They also provided a cake topper and delivered to the venue.

Ice Cream Social recently catered for our us, providing 200 delicious ice creams served promptly to our very happy guests. Booking and payment couldn’t have been easier, and all the staff are lovely to deal with. Couldn’t recommend highly enough for an easy wedding, or any other event!
