Tobias Peng is the founder of Super Ice Cream Truck, the Singapore company behind a fleet of restored vintage vehicles used for weddings, brand activations and events. A former Singapore Airlines (SIA) cabin crew member, he applied the same attention to detail and premium-service standard from aviation to heritage-vehicle restoration. What began with one car — a 1956 VW Kombi Deluxe Samba he named “The Duchess” — grew into Singapore’s heritage activation platform serving brands such as Chanel, plus hundreds of private weddings since 2008. His vision now merges heritage with sustainability through the sister brand Scoopy’s Gelateria Pte Ltd (Scoopy’s & Cream), giving every vintage activation an ESG and circular-economy backbone. This is the story of how he got there.
Who is Tobias Peng?
Tobias Peng is the founder of Super Ice Cream Truck, a Singapore-based heritage-vehicle and brand-activation company operated by Scoopy’s Gelateria Pte Ltd. Before founding the business he served as cabin crew for Singapore Airlines, where premium service and meticulous detail were the standard. He carried that “gold standard” mindset into restoring and operating vintage vehicles — VW Kombis, Vespa sidecars and more — for weddings, corporate events and luxury brand activations across Singapore.
How did it start? The discovery of “The Duchess”
It began with a passion for the classics. The arrival of “The Duchess” — a 1956 VW Kombi T1 Deluxe Samba — was not just a purchase but the start of a mission. Tobias saw that these vehicles were not merely “old cars” but cultural assets capable of bringing people together and creating unforgettable moments. Restoring her set the template for everything that followed: authentic vehicles, restored to a premium standard, deployed as experiences rather than props.
From aviation to heritage: the SIA influence
The discipline of being SIA cabin crew — where attention to detail and premium service are paramount — became the blueprint for Super Ice Cream Truck. Tobias applied that same service standard to heritage-vehicle restoration and event delivery: punctual, polished, guest-first. It is why clients booking a Kombi or Vespa sidecar in Singapore get a chauffeured, fully managed experience rather than a self-drive rental.
From rentals to a circular vision
As the fleet grew, so did the vision. As the wider world shifted toward sustainability, Tobias saw the opportunity to merge “heritage” with “ESG.” This led to building out Scoopy’s & Cream as the brand’s sustainability and compliance arm, so that every vintage activation can be made carbon-accountable. Restoring and reusing existing vehicles is itself a form of adaptive reuse — extending the life of a classic rather than manufacturing something new. Super Ice Cream Truck is on track to be MICE Sustainability Certification (MSC) Certified and ISO 20121 Certified in the second half of 2026 (forthcoming).
The legacy continues
Today, Super Ice Cream Truck operates one of Singapore’s most distinctive heritage activation fleets. Whether it is a luxury brand like Chanel or a couple’s wedding day, the goal is unchanged: an authentic, timeless experience that respects the past and protects the future. Founded in 2008, the company has delivered 1,000+ events.
