Candy Cart NE

Vintage candy cart hire for weddings, christenings and similar events across the North East

Cart hire

Treat your guests! Our fully stocked candy cart makes an ideal addition to all kinds of events including weddings, christenings, baby showers, birthdays, retirement parties ... in fact, any occasion where sweet treats would go down, well, a treat! Recently we have also catered for a number of corporate events lasting from one day to a whole week.

Fully insured and qualified in food hygiene, we set up the cart at your event in advance, then leave it packed with lots of lovely goodies for you to enjoy before we come and collect it afterwards (normally the next morning). Of course, any remaining sweets are yours to keep!

Each celebration is different so do drop us a line on the contact form. Based in Dipton, County Durham we can accommodate bookings across the North East.

FAQs

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Dipton, County Durham, not far from Gateshead and just south of the Tyne. Our pricing is based on a 15 mile radius of Dipton, which covers an area from Bishop Auckland in the south to Cramlignton in the north, and extends as far west as Hexham and Stanhope. Pricing for venues outside this area can be provided on request.
How big is the candy cart?
Our candy cart has the following measurements:
- Tabletop 120cm wide x 70cm deep
- Full width including handles and wheels 170cm
- Table top height 95cm
- Full height to top of roof 195cm
Where should the cart be located?

The candy cart is normally positioned in one corner of the function room, where it is easily accessible to guests but not in anyone's way. The cart can only be used indoors, with the exception of short bookings where we can remain with the cart to serve your guests outdoors if the weather is good.
Can we move the cart to a different location during the event?

No, the cart must not be moved once it has been set up by us. The wheels and handles are ornamental only and must not be used to move the cart.
Can you cater for more than 100 guests?

Yes of course, just let us know your requirements and we will provide a bespoke quote for you.
Can we hire the cart for longer, such as a whole weekend?

Yes, of course. You may need to restock at some point but we can supply you with plenty of spare treats. Just let us know what you have in mind and we will provide a bespoke quote for you.
What are your payment terms?

A deposit of £50 is payable on booking to secure the date, with the balance becoming due in full two weeks before the event. We accept payment by card, cash or bank transfer, but not cheques.
