Looking for the right
paper ice cream cup for your business? From size to printed graphics, the paper ice cream cups you choose for takeout and pre-packaging can have a big impact on your customer satisfaction, branding and overall business.
Paper ice cream cups come in a variety of designs and sizes, from small 3.5 oz containers to large 14 oz, 16 oz and 32 oz containers. Choosing the right ice cream container can help you provide the right choice to your customers while enhancing your brand image.
Calculate your size requirements

One of the most important factors to consider when comparing
paper ice cream cups is the average serving size your store serves customers. Most ice cream shops offer a variety of sizes, from a scoop of ice cream all the way to large prepackaged ice cream containers. Typically, there are three different sizes you need to consider in order to give your customers the best option.
In general, a 3.5-ounce container is suitable for your smallest serving size, while 5- and 8-ounce containers are ideal for medium and large servings. If you sell pre-made ice cream, you'll also want to add some larger 12-, 16-, and 32-ounce containers for takeout.
While it's good to give your customers choices, it's also important to limit them. Typically, you'll want to stick to up to three different sizes of paper ice cream cups to help reduce customer buying friction and keep your menu simple and clear.
Choose between branded or generic
Paper ice cream cups and other supplies are available as generic items or with custom branding. Each of these options has advantages—generic supplies are cheaper and ready to use, while custom-branded containers are eye-catching and ideal for brand marketing. Most of the time, your best bet is to invest in custom branded
paper ice cream cups to market your business and strengthen your brand. However, these products often have lead times, which means you may have to wait a few weeks for your order to be ready.
As an alternative,
paper ice cream cups with custom stickers can also help you market your brand and promote your business while waiting for your custom supply.
Do you need matching lids
While most of your customers will want to enjoy their ice cream right away, others may want to take it home to enjoy later. Therefore, it is best to have matching lids for your ice cream containers.
There are many types of
paper ice cream cups, the most common of which are plastic dome and flat lids. If you're offering sundaes, shakes and ice cream mixes, you'll want to make sure you have a range of available plastic domes along with matching scoops. For regular scooped ice cream, it's also worth investing in flat lids, which can be used for takeout orders as well as pre-made, pre-packaged ice cream products.
