Elsie's boss, Hilary, her daughter Ella and friend, Rachel finishes the full vintage look off by dressing in a 1950's style frilly pinafores and headscarves. Elsie also loves to do her bit for charity so will happily attend fete's and fairs and will make a donation from her ice cream sales to any charity event.
Finally, Elsie is not camera shy, so if you have a photo shoot where you think Elsie will look good, she is happy to be in the background or take the limelight! She featured in Pudsey the Dog - the Movie and the Cadbury advert back in 2014 where they painted her Cadbury Purple! Did you know that this Hospice is the ONLY in-patient unit allowing 24 hour care covering Dacorum, St Albans, Harpenden, Markyate and all the surrounding villages.

Services
Pricing is very much dependent on the event, the number of people and how far Elsie has to travel. Sadly, due to her age, she doesn't like traveling much more than 30 miles from home. Elsie can make an appearance while the photos are being taken, or maybe she can be dessert or add some excitement in the gap between the wedding breakfast and the evening party?
Elsie will be serving ice cream home made by Mario who owns the gorgeous ice cream parlour MARIOS of Berkhamsted. The 6 flavours we carry as standard are all gluten free and the mango sorbet is dairy free so suitable for vegans [and very crummy!] To make Elsie's image totally authentic, ice cream will be served by us eccentric ice cream ladies, wearing a totally fetching frilly pinafore and hat!
If you would like to know more about Elsie's availability or get a quote for her to socialise with you please email me or give me a call. Email is always preferable as I work as a nurse for people with learning disabilities so can manage elsie far better when i am in front of a computer!
When you email please provide date, timings, number of guests, what the event is and whether you as the host, are paying up front for the icecreams or looking for a price for people to purchase their own.If you are more than 30 miles please still contact as we know other vintage ice cream vans who may be able to help, so we will always pass on your details and see if one of Elsie's friends can help!

Well, where to start? The service was outstanding and the ice-cream, WOW! From our wedding day the thing that is spoken about the most is the 'ice-cream truck'. I kid you not my husband had 5 ice-creams, he loved them that much! Hilary was an absolute pleasure to deal with and everything ran seamlessly. Thank you so much for making our wedding day extra special.
