What to Look for in Ice Cream Cups
An ice cream cup holds something cold that melts, so a few details matter more than they do for hot cups.
- Portion size. Match your scoops: one small scoop, two scoops or a sundae. Decide the volumes before the shape.
- Cold and condensation. Cold food makes the outside of the cup damp. Tell us about your product and how long it sits, and we confirm what is possible.
- Melt. Melted ice cream must stay in the cup. Ask about the barrier on the inside of the cup.
- Lid or no lid. A dome lid lets you add toppings, a flat lid suits take-home pots, and no lid suits a counter.
- Spoons and toppings. Decide whether a spoon sits on top and whether toppings need room.
Where Ice Cream Cups Are Used
- Ice cream and gelato shops selling scoops to eat in or take away.
- Frozen yogurt stores with self-serve pots.
- Dessert cafes that sell sundaes, puddings and sorbets.
- Events and catering, especially in summer, where a cup is easier than a cone.
Artwork and Printing Tips for Ice Cream Cups
- A cup is round and tapered, so artwork is wrapped around it. Put the logo where it faces the customer when the cup is held.
- Bright, playful colors suit ice cream, but check how they look with the food inside and with condensation on the outside.
- Keep the seam away from the logo and avoid fine text around the rim.
- A simple pattern repeats well around a cup and hides small marks.
- Ask us about finishes and the print on the inside only if you need it, and we confirm what is possible.
Planning Your Order
Measure out one real portion of each size and note the volume. Think about the freezer or counter space, since cups and lids take room, and how many cups you use on a hot day.
A sample is useful here. Our Standard Sample Kit is $50, shipping included, and the Samples page lists the other types. We confirm pricing and minimums with your quote.
