The Only 3 Ice Cream Cups Your Dessert Business Needs This Summer

Whether you run a busy high-street gelato parlour, a mobile ice cream van, or an event catering company, you already know that presentation is everything. 

But a great ice cream cup needs to do more than just look pretty—it has to survive the summer heat without turning into a soggy, leaking mess.

That is why our premium printed ice cream cup range is built with a heavy-duty double poly coating (layered on both the inside and outside). This dual-barrier shield entirely stops condensation from softening the card, keeping your tubs bone-dry and structurally rigid from the freezer to the last spoonful.

Here is the breakdown to help you find the perfect match for your scoops:

1. The perfect single scoop: 4oz printed ice cream cups

If you serve children’s portions, quick tasting menus, or a classic, honest single scoop of gourmet ice cream, this is your go-to tub. It keeps portions consistent, food costs predictable, and looks incredibly sharp on a dessert tray.

Best for: Single scoops, Italian gelato, fruit sorbets, and kids' treats.

2. The crowd favorite: 6oz printed ice cream cup

The ultimate all-rounder. When customers ask for a double scoop or want to mix two different flavors, the 6oz cup gives you that extra breathing room. It offers plenty of space for a couple of generous scoops without the toppings spilling over the edge.

Best for: Double scoops, frozen yogurt with a sprinkle of toppings, and medium sundaes.

3. The showstopper: 8oz printed ice cream cup

When your customers want to go all out, you need a heavy-duty cup that can handle the feast. The 8oz tub is designed for triple scoops, loaded sundaes, and desserts piled high with whipped cream, wafers, and dessert sauces.

Best for: Triple scoops, deluxe sundaes, loaded frozen treats, and takeaway desserts.

Be sure to match with ice cream spades for the ultimate accessory.
