White Stuff

40th Birthday Summer Tour

To mark White Stuff's 40th birthday, a restored vintage ice cream van became a touring brand experience. Wrapped in the brand's hand-drawn graphics and turquoise palette, it visited busy coastal spots through the summer, serving free artisan ice cream with branded wafers, merchandise and photo moments that carried the tour well beyond each stop on social media.
