Craving Sugar in Raleigh/Durham? Our Dessert Food Truck Catering Has You Covered!
Whether you’re strolling through Moore Square after a Hurricanes game at PNC Arena or tailgating outside Wallace-Wade Stadium in Durham, nothing caps off a Triangle get-together like a fresh, handcrafted dessert. Best Food Trucks brings the area’s favorite Raleigh/Durham dessert food truck catering directly to your office, wedding, or block party—hot ovens, cold freezers, and all.
We’re obsessed with quality. Every brownie, cupcake, and hand-spun milkshake is made on-site, right in front of your guests. No day-old sheet cakes hiding under aluminum foil here—just the sounds of mixers whirring and the smell of sugar caramelizing. When you book with us, you’re guaranteed desserts that are Triangle-tested and Wolfpack-approved.
Looking for a frozen crowd-pleaser? JAM Soft Serve Ice Cream churns local North Carolina dairy into silky cones, sundaes, and their signature “snow crèmes”—a mash-up of shaved ice and soft serve that’s perfect for those humid July nights in RTP.
Need a caffeine kick to pair with the sweets? The Corner Venezuelan Food can roll up next to your dessert truck with aromatic Venezuelan coffee and sweet-fried pastelitos. Prefer something plant-based for a mixed-diet crowd? Meatless Grease dishes out vegan street favorites (think crispy “chik’n” tacos) so everyone can indulge before hitting the cupcake line.
If your party leans savory-first, we can match desserts with local favorites like Blu Lotus Thai for vibrant Asian plates or the family-run T-N-T Fish & Chicken for Southern comfort baskets—because nothing makes peach cobbler taste better than a plate of Carolina fried shrimp.

I hosted an office event that was made wonderful by having Poblanos Taco Truck! The food was DELICIOUS and they were set up to serve 40 people very efficiently. Every one loved the food. Jonathan and his collegue were so friendly! Big Hit! Highly recommend.

The turkey burger was very well made and the fries were salted and spiced just right. Good crunch too.

Even though burger was a bit cold because I got there later, it had good flavor with spice level, texture was still firm and buns were not soggy or greasy

El Jefecito was so easy to work with. The tacos were delicious and the churros were out of this world. Our employees kept going back for a second Churro.

Lost my order. Had to show phone confirmation, then wait. Had 5:55 pick up time, but didn't get food until after 6:15

Brought both the fish and shrimp plates. Wish the fish plate came with slices of bread to make a sandwich but overall the food was great

Frank and the crew were very friendly and accommodated those with dietary restrictions (GF, vegetarian, etc.) They even decided to set up cash payment so they could service a few other guests from another part of our organization that did not have tickets. The service was pretty fast, despite the line. The food was really good and I had several peoplke comment to me that they enjoyed the food very much. The food truck made the event a complete success, especially on this hot day! I would definitely use them again for another event and I will provide positive feedback to our property managers in hopes they will put Mama Voula's truck on our weekly Tuesday Food Truck rotation.
