FDA-Certified Made Small Paper Cups For Hot Drinks

Choosing the right materials for custom small paper cups (typically 2oz to 8oz) requires balancing structural integrity and liquid barrier while supporting your sustainability goals. Whether you need insulated paper cups or ripple wall paper cups in small or large sizes,  we offer food-grade and 100% FDA-approved materials with rolled rims and a single PE coating to preserve hot and cold beverages and keep your fingers comfortable on the go. The biodegradable and durable materials we prioritize are:

SBS Paperboard

Highly sturdy material made from purely white virgin wood pulp for producing vibrant and high-resolution custom printing on paper cups. SBS helps hold liquids without leaking when coated on one side (C1S) with polyethylene (PE) or a water-based barrier.

Recyclable Kraft

Offering a naturally brown aesthetic, Kraft paper is eco-friendly for manufacturing small compostable kraft cups while staying true to your commitment to the planet. Serve your specialties responsibly with this compostable brown paperboard that provides excellent strength and heat insulation for takeaway services.

Recommended Thickness for Miniature Paper Cups

A lower weight of paper cups feels flimsy, while a higher weight is overly rigid for a small volume. A paper weight for custom small paper cups (2oz – 8oz) ranging from 150 GSM to 350 GSM is ideal for serving a small portion of beverages.

Available Sizes For Small Paper Cups Bulk

The sizes of mini cups in capacity vary. The most common size of small paper cups cardboard ranges between 2 OZ to 8 OZ. See the following dimensions of disposable food packaging cups for an informed decision:

  • 2 oz for controlled and min-portion serving
  • 3 oz is used for mouthwash rinsing, dispensing medications, and espresso shots
  • 4 oz is for cortados or beverage sampling
  • 5 oz for water cooler and sample tastings
  • 6 oz for tea and single or double shots of espresso
