Ice Cream Cups

Ice cream packaging must do more than hold dessert. It must insulate, resist leaks, and represent your brand with clarity.

Box Squire designs custom ice cream cups that match your flavors, portion sizes, and business model. Whether you offer single scoops, pints, or multi-layer sundaes, we create packaging that holds up under cold, protects product integrity, and communicates brand value.

Why Custom Ice Cream Cups Work

Generic cups collapse. They leak, distort brand quality, or don’t fit your product. Custom cups give you:

• Food-safe, moisture-resistant interiors

• Accurate sizing to portion or product

• Full-surface printing for brand visibility

Your cup is part of the customer’s first impression. It should be precise.

How We Build Strong Ice Cream Cups

We use food-grade board and seal options that protect the product during storage and service.

• Double-wall options for insulation

• Leak-resistant coatings to stop moisture seepage

• Secure snap or peel-seal lids

• Materials that hold structure during use

Your packaging needs to last from freezer to hand without compromise.

Available Styles and Sizes

Choose styles based on your product type:

• Pint or quart sizes for retail

• Tall cups for layered desserts

• Flat or dome lids

• Transparent lid options for display

We adjust cup height, diameter, and volume to your serving needs.

Materials You Can Use

Select from options that preserve your product and support full-color branding:

• Poly-coated paperboard for food safety

• PLA-lined board for compostable packaging

• Wax-lined options for extra moisture resistance

• Plastic-lined board for frozen storage stability

All materials meet food contact standards.

Custom Print and Finish Options

Enhance your packaging with finishes that improve both look and function:

• Matte or gloss lamination

• Spot UV for logo highlights

• Soft-touch coatings for premium feel

• Full-color, edge-to-edge printing

Print quality is reviewed at every stage to match your brand guidelines.

Design Help and File Setup

Upload your logo, brand colors, and artwork. Our prepress team checks bleed, resolution, and alignment. We help you build print-ready files that perform at scale.

Samples and Approval

Before final production, get:

• A 3D mockup

• A physical pre-production sample

Check fit, lid strength, print quality, and structure before you approve. Nothing moves forward without your confirmation.

Production Time

After artwork approval, most orders ship in 10 to 14 business days. Complex or large runs may require more time. We ship with tracking and keep you informed throughout.
