Successful on 10th Sep 2015 at 4:49AM.
Icecream Social started with the most delicious sort of bang right at the tail end of 2014. We started making all natural icecream using fresh local ingredients in the Goldfields of Victoria. We make flavours that range from the traditional to the avant garde, inspired by local produce, by best quality chocolate and by David Bowie alike.
For the past six months, we've been roaming the streets in our old-school icecream truck, dispensing frosty treats to the deserving and the undeserving alike. We've been churning part time at the Elphinstone pub, but we've outgrown our digs.
We've got a new, bigger, home in the Castlemaine Woollen Mills complex. And now we need your help so that we can expand production, sell direct to the public and finesse our van. With your help, Icecream Social will be able to feed the whole of Victoria all of the icecream it could ever eat!

我们的项目
在去年年底，我们开发了世界上最美味的冰淇凌。我们用维多利亚洲最天然的的原料制作无任何色素及添加剂的冰淇凌。我们的调味有最基本的口味，也有创新口味，绝对惊喜。受到当地口味的启发，我们采用了最优质的巧克力并得到了David Bowie的喜爱。
在过去的六个月里，我们已经推着老式的冰淇凌的在学校附近的街道上面，但是显然并没有达到我们的理想效果。我们在Elphinstone酒吧里面工作过，有时也会受到一些嘲讽。
我们在castlemaine Woollen Mills制作地有个新的，稍大点的家。我们需要您的帮助这样可以扩大生产，直接销售给观众。在您的帮助下，我相信整个维多利亚洲的冰淇凌都被我们承包啦。

资金如何被使用？
我们需要冷冻机！一个大型储冰器大约1500澳元和一个展览冰柜大约2500澳元。
接下来我们需要一些钱去支持我们的长款面包车，这样我们可以把我们的口味带到墨尔本甚至更多的地方！2000刀可以让整个流程动起来。
如果您有闲钱的话可以支持我们6000刀，我们会用它美化我们的包装，去支付我们的设计师去设计标签，并且将它放进库存会计和销售系统。

我的一些其它工作
冰淇凌系统是由三个'cream, Helen Addison-Smith, Craig MacDonald and Tim Ratcliffe组成。
Helen自己有个最原始的桃子café在East Brunswick，并且曾经是North Fitzroy有最初的面包。她从皇家剧院毕业，四处奔波积累经验。她的梦想就是做出世界上最好的冰淇凌。
Craig Macdonald在埃尔份斯通运营车库艺术制作，同时他也是一位雕刻家，在火箭和爆炸方面有很大的造诣。在过去的20年中他奇迹般地支付了一些艺术家的费用。他的梦想是制作出冰淇凌的生产机器并将其全部销售掉。
Tim Ratcliffe是一位演员，导演和节日策划者。他会为你们制作出美味的冰淇淋。

挑战
我们最大的挑战是如何处理换季时冰淇凌的销量。
如果可以开发冰淇凌带回家，那就意味着顾客可以冬天在家吃我们的冰淇凌，在床上沙发上甚至火旁边。
能够直接销售我们的工厂意味着我们可以开发季节性的口味针对我们的冰淇凌爱好者。
最重要的一点如果可以有我们自己的冰淇凌面包车甚至更多的面包车团队加入我们。我们就可以火爆整个夏季，甚至可以high到冬天。

How The Funds Will Be Used
We need freezers! One big storage freezer (around $1500) and one display freezer so we can sell directly out of our space in Castlemaine (around $2500).
Then we'll need to put in some money into our honourable, but slightly elderly van, so we can bring our flavours to Melbourne more often! $2000 should get her running sweet.
If you'all are so nice as to give us more than $6000, we'll use that to spruce up our packaging, pay our graphic designer to make us some spunky labels, and put in inventory and accounting and point of sale systems.

The Challenges
Our biggest challenge is how to deal with the seasonal nature of icecream eating.
Being able to develop take home packs means that our customers will still be able enjoy eating our icecream at home in the colder months, in front of the fire, or in bed with a friend or two.
Being able to sell directly out of our factory means that we can develop season-specific flavours for the hard core icecream lovers. Sticky date icecream, anyone?
And finally, if can make our van super-dooper, and even add another van to our flotilla, we'll be able to hit summer hard, and get so much icecream to so many mouths during summer that we might even take a nice rest in winter time.
