Craving Something Sweet, New York? Dessert Food Truck Catering Is Rolling Your Way!
From Midtown’s neon glow to the brownstone-lined streets of Brooklyn, New Yorkers have a legendary sweet tooth. Best Food Trucks delivers the city’s most iconic dessert food trucks straight to your office happy hour, rooftop wedding, or Central Park picnic. When you book dessert food truck catering in New York, you ditch the tired sheet-cake and treat your guests to made-to-order cones, cookies, and sundaes, all served fresh off the truck.
The crown jewel of our lineup is the beloved Carvel Ice Cream Truck. Nothing screams “summer in NYC” like a vanilla-chocolate twist with rainbow sprinkles while yellow cabs zip by on Broadway. Every batch is churned right on the truck, carrying on Tom Carvel’s accidental 1929 invention of the famous soft-serve we all know and love.
Want to mix sweet with savory? Pair Carvel with grandma-style Sicilian slices from Jiannetto's Pizza, grab a Halal Mediterranean platter from Wraps And Kebabs, or add comfort-food sliders by STUF'D. Feeling tropical? Let Aloha bring island vibes to your curbside feast. We can create a full food-truck court that keeps every palate—and Instagram feed—happy.
Every truck we book is fully licensed in New York, arrives with fresh product, and parks legally—whether your event is in a SoHo art gallery, a Long Island backyard, or along the Hudson River Greenway. We manage permits, parking, and service so you can focus on enjoying the party.

Food and service was excellent. Arrival of food truck was late. Driver wanted to come half hour earlier (11:30a) to event to prep but ended up showing an hour later (12:30p). Wasn’t able to feed some of my important guests. They missed out on some good food to catch a flight. For the amount of $$ paid, was hoping have event catered on time.

We were very happy with the Smash Burger truck. They showed up on time, were very professional, and the food was delicious. I would hire them again. Thank you!

Delicious!!! Rangoon‘s were a bit on the cool side, but still delicious. Everything else was hot and steamy. Can’t wait till you come back to Raintree again.

More than 5! They worked their butts off to get the food out. All of it was delicious! Probably the best burger meat I've ever had, melted in my mouth!

Food was great and she was very pleasant. She was by herself when I went down there but she had a great system and stayed positive during a hectic time. I loved being able to pre-order and that they texted me when my food was ready.

The food was incredibly tasty and the portions were large - enough left over for lunch tomorrow. There aren't many creole trucks out there so knocking it out of the park flavor-wise was great!

Delicious food, ready for pickup exactly when promised, and friendly, welcoming folks running the operation. I hope they return to Greyhawk Landing.

Food was delicious but I have a feeling I got someone else's order. Be careful with your online orders.
