Mixed start to the season

Despite the rain and cold in the first part of March we have managed to visit the High School and many of our regular customers across Poynton, Bollington and Tytherington

Over the coming weeks with the longer daylight and hopefully, warmer weather we shall visit everyone to ensure you have a very whippy spring

Almost There

We are almost ready for the new season, just a few more items of stock and a few dry days and we hope to be visiting all our wonderful customers in the Poynton, Bollington and Macclesfield areas

Happy New Year,

We are currently carrying out our annual service preparations for the beginning of the new season.

This involves full mechanical overhaul, freezers and ice machines serviced and tuned.

Full steam clean inside and out, and last but not least, a full re-stock with lots of fresh tasty treats that our customers enjoy.

Subject to weather we are hoping to make our maiden voyage around mid to late February

Brilliant day, the weather held and everyone had a great day, well done to Erica and her team and everyone who made the day a great success!!

Prospect Vale Primary enjoy a Whippy Ice Cream

Despite the downpour, we attended with our friends at mrwhippyicecream.co.uk

The prospect Vale school in Heald Green. As usual the children all enjoyed their ice creams and everyone seemed to make the most of the day.

Poynton Scouts Sports Day

After a busy day at Wilmslow High school, we dashed back and served the pupils of Poynton High their usual ice creams and drinks, we continued around the village as the rare sun stayed with us.

At the very end of the day (long past Mr Whippy's bedtime) we stayed to serve some of the lucky scouts at Deva playing fields after their sports day.

Well done the scouts

Poynton 2012 Embrace the Games:

Despite the rain, the day was a great success and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. The Mayor turned up as did many children and parents.

Quite a few residents enjoyed a whippy in the rain, as did the 2448 squadron (ATC)


Well done to Erica and her team for staging the event.

Cheshire Whippy Ice Cream look forward to seeing you on Saturday

Saturday 16th June 12 noon to 4:00 pm at Poynton Leisure Centre.

Macclesfield Rugby Club

Today we attended a very wet day at the Macclesfield Rugby Club and despite the terrible conditions, the children played on. Very few were tempted to buy a whippy though, most preferred a hot meal indoors (who could blame them)

It brightened up right at the end so a few lucky children talked mum & dad round and got a whippy.

We called at Bollington and Poynton and made the most of a very wet day!!

A Mr Whippy "99" really is good for you!!

Eat a lighter ice cream

The secret ingredient to the likeably lickable ice cream is … wait for it … air. When it’s whipped up in the machine, 1L of ice cream magically becomes a 2L serving. That means a Mr Whippy is one of the lightest summer snacks a man can go for. The 164 calories in a 99 compare well against the 220 in a Cornetto or the 275 in a Magnum Classic. You can work off a 99 in under half an hour in the summer sun. Ten minutes hard going in the pool or a 20-minute game of tennis will do the job. Or, if you can fi nd a secluded spot, 15 minutes of "fun" will also serve.

Add choc for heart health

The 32g of chocolate planted in your ice cream is more than a crumbly bit of window dressing. New research in the European Heart Journal found that people who ate at least 7.5g of chocolate a day had lower blood pressure and a 39% lower risk of having a heart attack compared to those who got by on a measly 1.7g each day. Although such benefits are usually only associated with dark chocolate, this study found the same effects with its milkier cousin – owing to flavonols in the cocoa, which build strength in the walls of your blood vessels.

So come on Mums (and dads) enjoy a fresh dairy whippy this summer!!

Fantastic start to the season!! - Closed Sat/Sun 3rd & 4th March

 We will be away for the weekend upgrading the van and stock. We will be back at Yew Tree as usual Monday. Have a good weekend.

The new whippy van has performed well on it's trial run. We have managed to visit almost every street in Poynton since Thursday, and even though it's been a bit cold, it has stayed dry.

It has been amazing to see customers, old and new and we are looking forward to a great year.

We have extra bank holidays for the Diamond Jubilee, fun and games during the Olympics and the usual football games.

If you've not caught up with the whippy yet, we will be about all next week, so long as the dreaded rain stays away.

RETURN OF THE WHIPPY!! FEBRUARY 2012

SEE YOU IN 2012 - NEW TWIN BARRELL ICE CREAM - FEB 2012

 RETURN OF THE WHIPPY - LATE FEB 2012 - NEW "DOUBLE BARRELLED" MACHINE!!  - FRESH DAIRY - COMING SOON!!

We managed to serve some customers in November, but understandably, there were fewer and fewer of you prepared to brave the freezing cold. The arrival of the snow was the sign of  "CLOSED FOR THE SEASON"
We have been away longer than hoped, due in no small part to obtaining the correct NEWER, Whippy van. These vehicles are not like buying a new Mondeo.
The van is being prepared in our workshop now!!

We look forward to seeing you in late February 2012

The Whippy Team
