From Ice Cream Tricycle to Bespoke Catering: Our Story
Our catering journey began in Portsmouth, Hampshire, with a single ex-Walls ice cream tricycle from the 1940s. Peter meticulously restored it to its former glory, serving classic vanilla ice cream on the quay at the prestigious Gunwharf Quays designer outlet.
From that initial tricycle, our passion for catering blossomed. We expanded to three tricycles, then transitioned to custom-built catering units offering a variety of delicious options. Customers enjoyed hot roast meat baps, homemade fudge, Belgian chocolates, fresh-baked cookies, and barista coffees.
After 14 successful years, we craved a change of scenery. And so, embarking on a remarkable journey, and relocating to the beautiful West Midlands countryside along with our four children. Here, we returned to our mobile catering roots, but with a renewed focus on private events like weddings, parties, and corporate gatherings.
Peter's craftsmanship transforming the ice cream tricycles. The first creation was our charming mobile crêperie, featuring a double crêpe machine for crafting delicious sweet and savoury French crêpes.
​
During the 2020 lockdown, Peter's ingenuity shone again. He designed and built a magnificent wood-fired pizza oven that fits perfectly on a tricycle. This magnificent pizza oven weighed in at 165kg. This copper-clad beauty cooks pizzas to perfection in just 90 seconds!

While our offerings have evolved, our commitment to creating unforgettable dining experiences remains. Contact us today to discuss how our mobile crêperie and wood-fired pizza oven can bring a touch of delicious magic to your next celebration!
