Disposable Paper Ice Cream Cups for Gelato and Frozen Yogurt
Our paper ice cream cups are designed for ice cream, gelato, frozen yogurt and other cold desserts, combining flexible sizing, food-grade paper materials and professional customization for commercial foodservice use. Available from 16oz to 40oz, with larger custom sizes and matching lids, they support different serving portions and takeaway formats. Buyers can choose from Cup Stock Paper, LPB or FSB with optional PLA or WBBC lining, while CMYK/PMS printing and premium finishing options help create distinctive branded packaging. With free stock samples, a 20,000-piece MOQ per size and design, and 10–15 working day production, we provide a practical solution for brands, wholesalers and distributors.
Flexible Sizes for Different Serving Portions
Our ice cream cups are available in 16oz, 18oz, 20oz, 24oz, 32oz and 40oz, with larger custom sizes available for specific serving requirements. This range helps ice cream shops, gelato brands and frozen yogurt businesses match packaging with different portion sizes, from single servings and multiple scoops to generous toppings or sharing formats. Instead of using one standard capacity across every menu item, buyers can select a more suitable cup size based on actual food weight, filling level and serving style. Our team can also assist with confirming dimensions before production.
Food-Grade Materials and Lining Options for Cold Foods
Our paper ice cream cups can be produced using Cup Stock Paper, LPB or FSB, with or without PLA or WBBC lining according to project requirements. Different frozen desserts may have different moisture, condensation and holding-time requirements, so the paper and lining structure should be selected according to the actual application. Buyers can consider food weight, moisture level, toppings and expected service time when confirming the material combination. This flexible approach allows brands, foodservice suppliers and distributors to develop a packaging structure that better fits their product instead of relying on one fixed specification.
Matching Lids and Custom Printing for Takeaway Branding
For takeaway applications, ice cream cups with lids provide a more complete packaging solution for ice cream, gelato and frozen yogurt. We offer matching cup and lid sizes to help buyers coordinate the two components and reduce potential fitting issues before mass production. For branding, cups support CMYK and PMS printing for logos, artwork and brand colors, while gloss or matt lamination, Spot UV, foil stamping and embossing are available for distinctive presentation. This combination allows businesses to develop practical takeaway packaging while maintaining a consistent visual identity across different products and serving sizes.
Sample Verification and Reliable Wholesale Production
Our disposable ice cream cups are supplied for commercial foodservice orders with an MOQ of 20,000 pieces for each size and design. Before customized production, free in-stock samples are available for buyers to check cup size, paper feel, structure and suitability for their actual dessert portions. This helps confirm important details before committing to a larger order. Once material, dimensions, artwork and production specifications are approved, the standard lead time is 10–15 working days. The combination of sample verification, clear MOQ and defined production timing supports more predictable purchasing for brands, wholesalers and distributors.

In-house Production Facility
We are a trusted disposable packaging manufacturer with three self-owned production facilities, ensuring consistent quality, faster lead times, and full control from raw materials to finished products. Our in-house capacity allows us to meet high-volume orders while delivering tailored solutions for every brand.
We select food-grade Cup Stock Paper, LPB and FSB as the primary materials for our paper ice cream cups, with optional PLA or WBBC lining according to different project requirements. Instead of applying one fixed paper structure to every order, we consider the dessert type, portion weight, moisture, toppings and expected holding time when confirming the material combination. This flexible approach helps ensure that each ice cream cup is developed around its intended application. With controlled material sourcing and production preparation, we provide a stable foundation for consistent quality across high-volume custom orders.
Our printing capabilities are designed to turn customized ice cream cups into a recognizable part of your brand presentation. We support both CMYK and PMS printing, allowing customers to reproduce logos, artwork and established brand colors according to approved specifications. PMS printing is especially useful when consistent brand color references are important across different packaging projects. Our printing process focuses on accurate artwork reproduction and stable color performance, whether you need a clean minimalist design or a more detailed multi-color layout. This gives dessert brands greater flexibility when developing customized packaging for stores, chains and promotional campaigns.
Using standardized forming and converting processes, we focus on dimensional accuracy and structural consistency throughout production. Each disposable ice cream cups order is produced according to confirmed specifications, including cup capacity, paper structure and overall dimensions. Our production controls pay particular attention to forming quality, rim consistency and cup stability, helping ensure that the finished packaging performs reliably during filling, serving and takeaway use. By managing key production processes in-house, we can maintain closer control over product consistency and respond more efficiently to custom requirements across different sizes and designs.
For businesses requiring ice cream cups with lids, coordinated cup and lid specifications are essential for efficient packaging operations. We provide multiple cup capacities from 16oz to 40oz, along with matching lid options, while larger custom sizes can also be discussed according to application requirements. By confirming the cup dimensions and lid compatibility together before production, we help reduce fitting issues and unnecessary rework. This coordinated approach is especially useful for brands, foodservice suppliers and distributors managing multiple serving sizes. It also supports more organized purchasing when cups and lids need to be supplied as one packaging solution.
Quality control is integrated throughout our production process rather than being limited to the final inspection. For every yogurt cup and other cold-food packaging order, key specifications such as material structure, dimensions, printing quality and overall forming performance are checked according to the confirmed requirements. Our QC process also focuses on cup integrity, rim consistency, appearance and practical usability before shipment. For customized projects, these checks help identify potential issues before goods leave the factory. This systematic approach allows us to maintain more consistent quality for commercial foodservice orders and long-term packaging supply.
After production and inspection, finished ice cream cups are carefully packed and stored in an organized warehouse before shipment. Clear production specifications and order tracking help us manage different sizes, designs and quantities for commercial customers. Our standard MOQ is 20,000 pieces for each size and design, while the normal lead time is approximately 10–15 working days after all production details are confirmed. Free in-stock samples are also available for buyers who want to verify the product before customization. This structured fulfillment process supports more predictable purchasing for dessert brands, wholesalers, distributors and foodservice packaging suppliers.
A stronger board structure is usually better for heavier or wetter desserts. When selecting paper ice cream cups, consider portion weight, moisture, toppings, freezing conditions, and holding time rather than choosing thickness by cup size alone. Ice cream with heavy toppings or longer takeaway times may need more structural support than a light serving used immediately in-store. For frozen yogurt or desserts with higher moisture, the lining and board should also be evaluated together. We recommend testing the actual food portion in a sample cup before confirming the final paper structure for bulk production.
PLA or WBBC is not automatically better for every application. The right lining depends on moisture exposure, melting behavior, holding time, and the packaging requirements of the specific product. For yogurt cup applications, for example, moisture resistance and expected holding time should be considered before selecting the structure. For ice cream, melting and condensation during takeaway may also affect the choice. We recommend comparing the actual food conditions with the intended material properties and confirming the structure through samples before placing a high-volume order.
Lid compatibility should be verified before mass production. For ice cream cups with lids, the cup rim, lid dimensions, sealing fit, and actual handling conditions should be checked as a system. A lid that looks suitable by specification may still perform differently if the rim tolerance or stacking conditions are not properly matched. We recommend testing the actual cup-and-lid combination with the intended dessert, including filling, closing, carrying, and storage. This sample check can help identify fit problems before a large custom order is produced.
No, a larger cup is not always the better choice. For disposable ice cream cups, capacity should match the actual portion weight, topping volume, filling height, and serving style. Too little space can make toppings difficult to add and may affect handling, while excessive headspace can make the serving look undersized and reduce packaging efficiency. For single-scoop, multi-scoop, and heavily topped desserts, the ideal size can be different even when the food weight is similar. We recommend testing the actual serving in sample ice cream cups before finalizing the capacity for production.
