Cold Stone Catering for College & Campus Events in New Jersey

Yes — Cold Stone caters college and campus events across New Jersey. From orientation and move-in weekend to homecoming, greek life socials, student-org events, and staff and faculty gatherings, the branded Cold Stone truck rolls up to serve a crowd outdoors, and our staffed sundae bar sets up indoors in a student center, quad tent, or hall. Both serve real Cold Stone Signature Creations, made to order.

The truck for outdoor campus events

For move-in weekend, orientation, spring fling, finals-week study breaks, and outdoor campus celebrations, the ice cream truck is the draw. It parks on the quad or lot, and students line up at the window for a creation made to order on the frozen stone — a fast, high-energy moment that serves a big group and needs no power hookup from the venue.

Indoor student-center and hall gatherings

When the event is inside — a student center, dining hall, greek chapter house, or department reception — or the season doesn’t suit the truck, the Cold Stone sundae bar sets up on a table indoors and our team serves from Cold Stone catering tubs. It fits an indoor room without needing the truck to park.
