Kickstarter

A thank you on our website and a sticker designed by Jaime Van Wart!

A double scoop with one topping, plus a sticker! No need to wait until the shop is open: you can get your scoop from us at the bus!

A double scoop with one topping, a sticker, and a hand-packed pint of your choice! Also available at the bus!

Everything at the $25 level, plus a mini ice cream cookzine made by Mrs. Parlour! Enough recipes to get you started making ice cream at home.

A limited-edition T-shirt for backers only (featuring a map to the store) and a pint of a special Kickstarter flavor! And a sticker! And more exclamation points! (Sticker and pint will be available when the campaign is over, but the T-shirt availability depends on when we sign a lease.)

A sticker, and a one-year membership to our Sundae of the Month Club!

The Parlour's cool new T-shirt (designed by Jaime Van Wart), and a one-year membership to our Pint of the Month Club!

For the out-of-town folks: since shipping pints for a Pint of the Month Club membership would be too costly, we're offering a six-month membership to our Cookie of the Month Club! Each month we'll ship you a dozen cookies, made in-house by Mrs. Parlour.

A pint of your choice, a T-shirt, a sticker, and a pair of complementary logo aprons (pink-on-brown and brown-on-pink) handmade in Durham by Seam Happy! We will ship to out-of-towners, but we’ll substitute some cookies for the pint unless you’re willing to cover the (shockingly high) cost of overnighting ice cream!

Photoshoot! You’ll get everything at the $40 level, plus a studio portrait session with photographer Brandon Hoe. Check out his work at his personal site [http://www.brandonhoe.com] and his company ClearSketch [http://www.clearsketch.com]. Please note: if you select this reward, you must be able to come to Brandon’s downtown Durham studio on a weekend. We will put you in touch with him to work out details at the end of the campaign.

Remember when you could get a double-dip ice cream cone for one shiny nickel? We don’t! But you can get The Parlour’s original price list sign that was mounted to the side of the bus (way too far from the serving window for most people to notice it). If you hold on to it for enough decades, you too can marvel at how cheap ice cream used to be, back in the aughts. Plus everything at the $40 level. PLEASE NOTE: the sign is big, at 42×52 inches, and partially made of aluminum. We’ll deliver it locally (subject to the whims of our work schedule), but if you want it shipped, you’ll need to cover the cost.

A home ice cream making class for up to 10 people, taught in your home by Mrs. Parlour. Who will also bear hug you. And a sticker. And a pony*. *Just kidding, no pony.

Your own flavor! You decide what flavor you'd like us to make, and we make a batch AND name it after you! You get two pints of your signature flavor, a sticker, a t-shirt, and a one-year Pint of the Month Club membership! (Subject to final approval by owners. NO BACON.)

A catered ice cream party with the bus at the location of your choice (within the Triangle (yes, we’re talking to you, Daphne)), for you and 20 friends. And a sticker for everyone at the party! And more exclamation points!

Not one, but TWO ice cream parties for up to 25 people! We bring the first to you this summer/fall, using the bus. The second one will be at the store after we open. Plus stickers for everyone, AND a 2-year Pint of the Month Club membership. Optional bear hugs.
