Want a delicious treat? Ice cream is a great way to fulfil your craving on every occasion. It’s the best treat for people of all ages. A refreshing edible that everybody loves enjoying while walking in a shopping mall or hanging with friends.

Packaging is the best way to make your brand more visible in these busy streets. If you’re in this business, then incorporating custom paper ice cream cups makes your brand noticeable to people. These cups are good enough for one scoop of ice cream or fully loaded desserts.

Our custom paper cups are specially designed to keep your dessert fresh and spill-proof while delivering to indoor or home settings.

Features Of Ice Cream Cups

When choosing ice cream cups, the material and features of standard cups matter a lot for how long your ice cream can stay frozen and how your brand stands out. Here are some features that you have to know in custom ice cream cups.

Moisture barrier

To prevent ice cream from melting and from turning the paper soggy, custom cups utilise a special layered structure

  • High GSM paperboard
  • Interior lamination
  • Exterior barrier

Customization option

The production depends on the volume and visual design of the cups. Multiple food-safe printing options are available.

  • High-resolution CMYK colours
  • Food-safe inks
  • Finishes upgrades

  • Rolled rims
  • Doom lids
  • Flat lids

Benefits Of Ice Cream Cups 

Custom Disposable Paper Cups offer major tasks, marketing and structural advantages over traditional cones or other dessert packaging. Whether you need them for an ice cream parlour or a catered event. Here are some key benefits of ice cream cups that help to make your business more noticeable.

Mess-proof

These paper cups act as the structural barrier around the ice cream and topping that helps to make them mess proof. Unlike cones, which can melt easily and drip down immediately, the cups keep your hands and clothes clean during travel.

Optimised for loaded toppings

The flat surface of the cups provides excellent balance. This structural design helps servers easily handle loaded toppings like hot syrups, crushed nuts, and fresh fruits without risking tripping over.

Premium branded canvas 

The smooth or plain exterior of the cups gives you a 360-degree billboard shape where you can print your company logo or show your creativity. The use of food-grade inks turns every serving moment into a moving advertisement that enhances the recognition of the brand on social media or on the streets.

Accurate portion control

Cones vary slightly in shape and how far the scoops can fit in them that leads to uneven portions, but the ice cream cups provide the measurement that ensures consistent inventory control and exact food quantity.

Ice Cream Cups With Covering Lids

Custom Ice cream cups with lids are available in paper or plastic format. This helps to prevent the ice cream from leaking during takeaways. The serving layout determines which type of lids you need. You can select normal paper cups or crystal parfait cups with straight or dome lids.

Disposable ice cream cups with lids: Double-coated cups are designed to handle both cold frozen yoghurt and hot desserts without getting soggy. These cups are available with the same flat or dome plastic lids.

Clear plastic dessert cups with lids: Clear crystal plastic that showcases layered parfaits that are best for topping sundaes and gelato. Dome lids provide the extra curve for whipped ice cream or high-stacked scoops.

These lids help to prevent your ice cream from dust and reduce the melting of your ice cream. You cannot do partnerships with delivery services without these ice cream lids if you want to deliver your ice cream to customers’ doorsteps.

Multiple Designs For Ice Cream Cups 

The premium paper cups are available in multiple designs, colours, and appealing styles. These aesthetically appealing designs are like heaven for ice cream lovers. Selecting the right design of the cups for your custom creative artwork establishes your brand’s identity, sets the atmosphere of the events, or drives the brand’s visibility on social media. Here are a few designs that we offer for customised ice cream cups:

Minimalistic design

The minimalist design of the cups focuses on clean space and high-end typography. A clean background that conveys a premium feel to the customer.

Bold or vibrant colour cups

Use CMYK colour with doodles, vibrant colour blocks, and geometric patterns. These bold cups are highly effective for modern desserts, pop-up colours, or children’s parties.

Vintage cups

The vintage cup features a classic font and old-fashioned logos. This style evokes the 1950s soda fountain or local seaside creamery.

Grow Your Business With Our Custom Branded Ice Cream Cups.

Branded ice cream cups are the best way to increase sales for your dessert business. In the food industry, your cup packaging with your brand’s logo serves as a billboard that does the marketing of your brand for a long time after the customer leaves the counter. These custom ice cream cups with a logo help to make your brand more visible.

Turning every serving into a billboard

When customers walk down the street with a plain ice cream cup, nobody knows where they bought the ice cream. But if they walk with a branded cup, everyone notices it. A branded cup instantly generates local foot traffic or encourages sharing on social media.

Enhance professionalism

Good packaging affects how customers perceive the quality of the product. A custom-printed ice cream cup signals that the ice cream is premium and rich in taste. It allows you to justify your menu prices compared to shops that use unbranded cups.

Material And Coating For Ice Cream Cups

The material and coating that are used for ice cream cups give them structural rigidity and leak resistance. Frozen items create intense condensation when the temperature changes. So choosing the right material layer or coating is essential to prevent the packaging from collapsing.

Our company has multiple material options with different GSMs and coatings to enhance the uniqueness of your boxes. From sustainable options to high-end laminated coatings, you can get everything that you need.

Base material

Boxboard, which is the body of the cups, is made from high-quality paperboard that is made specifically for food service. The standard paper cups use single-wall cup stock. The thickness of the material ensures the cup maintains its shape under the pressure of hard scooping and remains rigid.

The custom double-wall paper cups are designed to add a layer that keeps the ice cream frozen until it is delivered to the customer’s doorstep.

Coating 

The Raw paperboard easily absorbs the liquid, which can cause leaking through the cups. So the inner coating of the cups helps to provide a protective layer that must be fused to the paper.

Coating Type Material Source Best Used For
PE (Polyethylene) Petroleum-based plastic film Deep-freezing and budget-friendly bulk commercial operations.
PLA Plant-based bioplastic manufactured from cornstarch or sugarcane Eco-conscious brands are looking for a bio alternative that is made with traditional plastic paper.
Water-Based Dispersion Plant-derived polymer compounds blended in water Premium packaging designed for curb-side recycling programs.

Printing Of Custom Ice Cream Cups 

Custom printing on the cups is the best way to grab customers’ attention. Printing the same design that you use on other platforms on the cups makes them noticeable and enhances the brand’s identity. We use high-quality printing machines that make your design feel real in life. Printing on custom ice cream cups involves applying highly specialised, food-safe methods to the flat sheet of paperboard.

The selection of printing machinery depends on the order volume or the complexity of the design.

Digital printing: For digital printing, the customer needs to send their artwork in PDF format directly to the printing press without requiring physical plates. This method allows a low minimum order quantity.

Offset lithoprinting: This is known as the industry standard for high-quality printing or complex graphics. Offset offers advanced colour accuracy, sharp text, and excellent resolution.

Freedom To Adopt Any Size

Catchy printing designs attract customers’ attention, which will improve the customers’ experience with the ice cream parlour. You can also get different sizes of cups according to the customers’ requirements for the ice cream scoops, like small ice cream cups for teenagers or children, and a medium size of the cups for adults or double scoops of ice cream. Whatever your requirements are, share them with us, and we will make this happen for you.
