Introducing the Caribbean Twist from Roberts ice cream van

It's a lovely summers afternoon, your in the back garden, husband on the barbecue sipping cool beer, the kids run around the freshly cut lawn playing games. There you are, soaking up the warm air knowing you can stay just where you are on your newly bought lounger. When the evening rolls in you can sit by the table with the warm romantic glow from an outdoor fire patio heater. Before the sun goes down the delightful tinkle, that unique sound of an ice cream vans soft chimes whistles through the air. The children stop running around, faces gleaming with hope, your husband looks at you with a "I'm controlling the burgers" face, before you know it your at the ice cream van enjoying a lovely summer treat. A welcome happy smile and an ice cream to tingle your taste buds. 
But what's this, your feeling a little exotic, must be all that sunshine...well Roberts ice cream van has just the thing for you. A large tub, lined with scrumptious mango sauce, filled with fresh coconut ice cream and finished with a squeeze of pineapple sauce. A little invention Robert calls a Caribbean twist! 
Now a famous favourite! 
Make your summer afternoon like an afternoon sitting on the white sands of Jamaica, a Caribbean twist ice cream and maybe a sneaky rum and coke. Go on...enjoy a little luxury, a little...taste of the Caribbean. 

Helping raise money for good causes

Throughout the previous years Roberts ice cream van hire have help many charities raise money. Company director Robert today announced he is still more than happy to continue working with UK charities in any way he can and has also raised the percentage the company now gives towards these good causes. "Many people depend on these wonderful charities, many of which are helping save lives and fight diseases, there are those in need, and we will as a business, always help those who need help and giving a percentage donation from our takings is the best way forward and I shall strive to continue to improve this policy we live by. if we can all come together, unite as people, we can help these charities in different ways. i hope that the money we donate goes to things such as equipment, food, water and life saving medication. i look forward to the future, a future in which I can say i done my best to make a difference" words from director Robert himself. 

Roberts ice cream now have vans booked on almost every weekend of 2013, 60% of which are charity events, a few examples are demelza house hospice, help for heroes, cats protection and cancer research UK. Also coming next year we have events booking for Alzheimer's UK, a Charity very close to Roberts Heart to which Robert makes personal donations a month already.

A recent event was with the Bredhurst cats protection league, who have now used Robert 4 years running and Robert insists he attends these events personally. A very successful day in the small lanes of the Medway countryside, the ice creams were very popular and even a few of the kittens couldn't take their eyes off the ice cream van and Staff member Heather couldn't keep her eyes off the cats! Robert helped raise more funds to go towards the well being and safety of those adorable balls of fluff and just to add a little extra Robert's team members are now volunteering at the cats protection. 
So if you have been wondering where your local Roberts van has been, now you know, but keep an eye and ear out because Roberts will be back to your street soon. 

My dear readers, I ask you...I beg you. Please remember these charities that are out there, trying to help people, often people the volunteers have no connections too except care for the fellow people. Do the human thing, the right thing, give a little gain a lot.

Robert's Ices say "Slap it on the plastic"

2013 brings a new year and new changes, for some its a change in lifestyle but for us at Robert's ice cream vans it's something a little more futuristic.
After a successful meeting last week the company can announce they will be taking debit and credit card payments on all vans!
Most likely the first ice cream company to venture into this experiment, Robert hopes this will make customers find paying for ice cream easier and simpler but also, ensuring poor old dad doesn't miss out!

Using the most modern hand held card machines, which for speed, can amazingly connect to all phone networks so there will be no delays in paying. Company director Robert was concerned to begin with about card payments slowing down service speed, but Robert was delighted that technology can avoid this and keep all customers happy.

Sunday Sundae

We all love a Sunday and most of us love a Sundae as well. It is fact that Ice Cream is Favored on a Sunday. Is it because its the day of rest and an indulgence is the "cherry on the cake", or is it simply because we are indoors and an Ice cream adds a little excitement to a lazy day. Whatever your reason is the simple fact is this... We Love a Sunday Sundae!!!

How To Know Who To Hire

Ice Cream Van Hire can be a tricky thing to get organised, with many Ice Cream Vans trying to cover one area and so many competitors, how do you know who you can trust? There are a few ways you, as the client, can tell if your hiring a good Ice Cream Van, and the first part is your personal impression, is the person your dealing with friendly, professional, clean, do you feel you as a person could trust them. This is the first step, but of course there is a lot more to it than just that.

Here at Roberts Ices we have something many do not, we have an official booking system. so what does this mean? This means when you make a booking with us, we will not let you down. We are proud to say we have never let a customer down, we send out written confirmations. We send you legal confirmation saying that the date and time you have requested is yours in our calendar. It pains us how many unprofessional Ice Cream Companies are out there who are letting people down day after day, but here at Roberts Ices we are different, we are professional and reliable.

Another major part of choosing your Ice Cream Van is checking up to date licences, hygiene certificates, public liability insurance, trading licence, HASAP and risk assessment. If an Ice Cream company does not have these, then do not book with them because you don't know what your in for. It is always better to go legal and professional. Roberts Ice Cream Van Hire holds all the mentioned above and more, for your peace of mind.

Products. Another key part in choosing an Ice Cream company. lets be honest why should anyone put up with a low quality ice cream van which serves only a few whippy products, wheres the fun and enjoyment in that!?
We know of poor Ice Cream Vans who have minimal products, do not serve anything as far as toppings....How can someone call themselves an Ice Cream company and not have sprinkles. This make me sad how so wrong some people are treating this industry. At Roberts Ice Cream Van Hire we have vast products (See our products page for more details) from fresh whippy served in various types of cones and other edible containers as well as many tubs and other forms of non-edible containers. We think visiting an Ice Cream van should be a great experience and we have a product for everyone, luxury adult products to child friendly inventions .

Also, be sure to check your value for money. Remember this, with the ice cream industry you pay for what you get. If you want to go with a really cheap quote then the Van and Ice Creams will not be to your satisfaction, the higher quotes are always the more value for money in the long run. Quality comes with the price, so don't settle for second best.

Here at Roberts Ices we are proud of who we are and what we do. we know we will make your event, wedding or whatever it may be, a bit more special. We have many years experience, and we promise you not only a professional friendly service, but the best quality Ice Creams and of course your Value for money. Speak to us today to discuss your event
