Kraft ice cream cups for scoops, sundaes and frozen desserts
Kraft ice cream cups give frozen desserts a natural, warm look while doing the practical job: they are food-contact grade, rigid enough not to deform, and the board insulates the dessert so it stays cold longer in the customer's hand.
- 120 ml (4 oz) — single scoop, tasting portions, buffet and wedding desserts.
- 240 to 360 ml — double scoops, frozen yogurt, sundaes.
- 420 to 480 ml — large servings and take-home portions.
The cups nest inside one another, which saves storage space behind the counter and reduces freight volume.

Barrier, PFAS and end of life
The moisture barrier on Direct Eco Green ice cream cups comes from a PLA lining or the kraft board itself, not from fluorinated (PFAS) treatments. Intentionally added PFAS are banned in food packaging in New York, California, Washington, Vermont, Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Minnesota, Rhode Island and Hawaii; ask for the factory's PFAS declaration with your quote.
Describe end of life precisely. Kraft + PLA cups are designed for commercial composting where facilities accept them and are not accepted in most curbside recycling programs. Avoid unqualified "100% recyclable" or "biodegradable" claims: the FTC Green Guides and California SB 343 require claims to match what local facilities accept. Kraft board can be supplied FSC-certified under license FSC C204557.
Compliance for the US and Canada
Paper ice cream cups sit outside Canada's Single-use Plastics Prohibition Regulations, which target foodservice ware made from expanded polystyrene, PVC, oxo-degradable plastic and black plastic made with carbon black; the Federal Court of Appeal confirmed on January 30, 2026 that these rules remain in force. To print "compostable", buyers expect ASTM D6868 certification (BPI) in the US or CAN/BNQ 0017-088 in Canada; tell us which one your market requires and we confirm, before you order, which factory reference can document it. Request the factory's FDA food-contact compliance letter with your quote.
Custom printed ice cream cups and private label
Direct Eco Green can print your logo and brand colors on kraft ice cream cups at the factory; for smaller seasonal runs, the plain kraft surface also takes labels and stamps well. Combine ice cream cups with matching kraft cups and ice cream pots, wooden cutlery or paper napkins in one consolidated shipment.
Why buy ice cream cups factory-direct from Direct Eco Green

For high-volume buyers of ice cream cups, that means a lower total cost of ownership than re-sold stock, packaging built to your specification, and one contact from artwork to delivery.
