Custom Ice Cream Cups

Ice cream is one of the refreshing treats of hot summer days and is consumed by people of all ages. There are so many flavors of ice cream, and there are numerous ice cream shops in Canada. This fierce competition and high demand require something that can make your product unique and easy to consume. Custom ice cream cups are one such thing that helps brands in various ways. 

You can make your takeaway and indoor sitting orders simple with the use of cups. These custom paper ice cream cups offer perfect packaging for one scoop or a fully loaded dessert.

Are Custom Ice Cream Cups Worth Buying With Lids?

Ice cream cups with lids are worth buying because they expand your business from a simple counter shop to takeaway and delivery options. Adding a lid to ice cream cups turns simple cups into attractive, aesthetic cups that protect the product for the long term. Your perfect ice cream cups are more than simple containers to fulfil your tasty treat. Custom ice cream cups with lids improve delivery and get positive customer experience with every order. 

Upgrade your cups with covering lids because you cannot partner with delivery services without these safety covers on the cups. Lids are specifically important if you are selling takeaway ice creams. This is because this will make the cup easy to carry and prevent contamination due to dust and debris.

Customers are no longer forced to eat their ice creams immediately. Because a safety lid allows them to buy multiple scoops and eat them gradually while walking and driving without having a mess from melting, and put the leftover portion or scoop in the home freezer to eat later. These lids act as a safety barrier from the outdoor elements like dust, rain and make them essential for high-end catering.

Durable material for custom printing of ice cream cups 

High-quality, durable packaging material always meets the standard of your food brand. Our company understands the quality and variety of food. We offer a wide range of sizes to accommodate a single portion of ice cream to overflowing sundaes. 

For the manufacturing of custom-printed ice cream boxes, we use variable thicknesses of the materials. All the materials are food-grade and have a protective coating to prevent the cups from collapsing. The moisture-resistant layer of the cup protects the ice cream from dripping through the cup.

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. 

Paperboard

The affordability and food-grade nature of papaerboadmake sit maong the commonly used pacakging materials for cups. One of the most prominent features of this material is that it is sustainable and easy to print. That is why we use this material in bulk cup products. 

Kraft paperboard

The brown surface of kraft is the major reason that makes it one of the sustainable choices in packaging. If you are selling organic and pure fruit-based ice creams, you can go with kraft.  It provides an exceptionally high tear resistance and is easy to recycle. 

SBS paperboard

Solid bleached sulfate paperboard is the gold standard for premium custom printing. It features a white and smooth surface that allows flexographic printing with razor-sharp clarity.

Coating of paper ice cream cups

Coatings are used on the cups to enhance their features, such as grease and moisture resistance. Besides this, coating also enhances the attractiveness and premium look of your cups. Without this layer, the cups would absorb moisture and collapse within a few minutes.

Here are a few types of coatings that are used in the manufacturing of custom paper cups to make them moisture-free and protect the cups from collapsing.

PE (polyethene coating) 

This is a petroleum-based plastic layer that is applied directly to the paperboard. It can be applied as a single layer on the inner side or as a double layer on both the outer and inner sides of the paperboard. It has unmatched durability. Creates a completely leak-proof barrier that handles deep freezing without having a crack and peeling.

PLA coating

PLA is a plant-based barrier layer that is made from renewable sources like corn starch or sugarcane. It is resistant and protects the cup's integrity. 

Water-based coating

This is mostly called a dispersion coating. This high-tech solution uses a water-based polymer mix painted on the paperboard. It's excellent for immediate-use scenarios. It maintains the sturdy walls while the customer finishes their ice cream.
