Connecticut's Ice Cream Truck Experts Since 2001
A family-run business that grew into Connecticut's largest ice cream truck catering network — built on reliable service, well-maintained trucks, and a genuine love for making events memorable.
What We Do
Connecticut Ice Cream Trucks has spent over two decades building the largest ice cream truck catering network in the state — serving all 169 Connecticut towns with a full fleet of trucks and ice cream push carts. We cater weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, school carnivals, and neighborhood vending, and we design custom high-volume packages for large-scale events of any size.
Beyond Connecticut, our trucks have traveled nationwide as a platform for experience marketing and brand activations — custom-wrapped, staffed, and outfitted to support marketing campaigns, product launches, and television and film productions in cities including New York, Miami, Los Angeles, and Chicago.
Every truck we send out is fully insured, professionally staffed, and maintained to a standard that lets us show up — and perform — reliably, year after year.
The People Behind the Trucks
Two co-founders, two areas of expertise — together keeping every event running smoothly from booking to serving window. Every business has its ups and downs including ours, closing old chapters and beginning new ones. We've had a long challenging ride but we've never given up and appreciate all of the support from our friends and family. While all the drama and fun happens behind the scenes we continue to look forward to serving our valued customers throughout the greater Connecticut Area!
Jeffrey Shames
Originally starting as an employee after completing his Bachelors Degree in Marketing, Jeffrey now coordinates all event planning logistics and manages day-to-day operations for the company. While still finding time for fun at the local bowling alley bowling occasional 279's, he makes himself readily available serving as the primary point of contact for all questions related to special events and custom pricing.
Keith Bonenfant
Keith provides engineering guidance across all fleet equipment — including maintenance of walk-in freezer compressors, diesel and gas engines, and 3-phase generators — and leads development and system stability for our booking platform, built on React (JSX), .NET, and a MS SQL Server database hosted on our VPS. Throughout his journey while working at CT Ice Cream Trucks he has completed his Bachelors Degree in Financial Management and also obtained a MS in Quantitative Methods in Financial Risk Management.
