Nothing says summer like a creamy scoop of ice cream, slowly melting under the sun and bringing a smile with every bite. But the right packaging can make that moment even sweeter, while helping the planet at the same time. That’s where Advanced Disposables comes in, offering a wide range of ice cream tubs, spoons and scoops that are practical, eye-catching and environmentally friendly.

Summer-Ready Ice Cream Tubs

Our summer-ready ice cream tubs are designed to keep every scoop looking and tasting its best. From bright 3 oz single-scoop tubs for tasters to larger 6 oz options for indulgent double servings, there’s a size and style for every occasion. 

Made with sturdy, food-safe materials and available in fun prints or eco-friendly compostable finishes, they’re perfect for serving up sunshine in a cup.

Our 4 oz Go-Chill tubs are the ultimate summer serving solution. Made from sturdy PE-lined paperboard, they keep up to two scoops of icecream neat and easy to enjoy, whether it’s gelato, sorbet, jelly or ice cream. The bright, playful designs in sunny colours make them stand out, while the stackable shape saves space behind the counter. 

Perfect for cafés, beachside stands, food fairs or kids’ parties, they bring a fun, mess-free way to serve up summer sweetness.

The 6 oz Go-Chill tub is made for those moments when one scoop just isn’t enough. Its generous capacity is perfect for double servings, sundae creations, or frozen yoghurt piled high with toppings. Crafted from durable paperboard with a leak-resistant lining, it’s built to handle busy summer service without a fuss.

When two generous scoops are on the menu, this bold and stylish 5 oz Melody tub delivers with flair. Its vibrant blue hue and elegant calligraphy highlight the flavours within, making every serving feel special. 

Spacious and sturdy, it’s ideal for busy cafés, festive parties, or chilled dessert bars, making it perfect for serving up summer’s delights without any of the fuss.

Spoons & Scoops for a Greener Summer

The perfect ice cream experience isn’t just about the tub, it’s about the spoon in your hand. This summer, make every serving a little kinder to the planet with eco-friendly options that don’t compromise on style or practicality. From colourful paper spoons to natural wooden alternatives, there’s a sustainable choice for every kind of scoop.

Bright, cheerful, and perfect for sunny days, these Tutti Frutti Vegware paper spoons bring a burst of colour to every cup. Available in playful shades like pink, blue, green, yellow, and purple, they’re a fun finishing touch for ice cream, sorbet, or frozen yoghurt. 

Best of all, they can be industrially composted where facilities exist, making them as friendly to the planet as they are to your customers.

For a more natural look and feel, our birchwood spoons are a brilliant choice. Made from sustainably sourced wood, they’re 100% compostable and biodegradable, breaking down naturally without harming the environment. Their smooth, sturdy design makes them ideal for everything from gelato carts to farmers’ market stalls.

If you prefer a classic spoon shape with a sustainable edge, the Vegware compostable paper teaspoons are a great fit. Strong and reliable, they’re perfect for ice cream service and can be commercially composted where accepted. A practical, planet-friendly option for busy summer days.

Napkins for Every Occasion

No summer ice cream service is complete without a good supply of napkins to keep things tidy. Our range includes soft, absorbent options that are gentle on the skin yet tough enough to handle drips and spills. Available in various sizes and eco-friendly materials, they’re perfect for handing out with every cone or tub. 

Tips for Serving Success

• Choose tub sizes that suit your portion needs: 3 oz for samples, 4–6 oz for regular servings.
  
• Pair tubs and spoons creatively, such as iridescent pots with Tutti Frutti spoons for a burst of colour, or birchwood scoops for a natural, rustic look.
  
• Let your customers know about your eco-friendly choices by adding a simple note to your menu.
  
• Order before peak season to ensure you’re stocked and ready.

Whether you choose crisp white for a classic look or kraft brown for a natural feel, these napkins are a simple, sustainable way to keep customers comfortable and happy.#

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are ice cream tubs recyclable?
Most of our ice cream tubs are made from sturdy PE-lined paperboard. While this makes them leak-resistant and food-safe, it can limit home recycling options. However, many local recycling facilities now accept PE-lined products, and our compostable ranges can be commercially composted where facilities exist. 

Always check with your local waste provider to see what is accepted in your area.

What tub size is best for 1 or 2 scoops?

• 1 scoop / tasters: Our 3 oz tubs are perfect for single servings, tasters, and kids’ portions.
  
• 2 scoops: Both the 4 oz Go-Chill tub and 5 oz Melody tub are ideal for holding two scoops comfortably without spilling over.
  
• Bigger servings: For sundaes, frozen yoghurt, or extra toppings, the 6 oz Go-Chill tub provides plenty of room.

How do I dispose of tubs and spoons responsibly?

• Compostable products: Our Vegware paper spoons, birchwood spoons, and compostable tubs can be commercially composted where facilities exist.
  
• Paperboard tubs with PE lining: These can often go into mixed recycling if your local council accepts them.
  
• Wooden spoons: 100% biodegradable, they can be composted at home or in commercial facilities.
  
• General rule: Always remove food residues before recycling or composting, and check local disposal guidelines for the best option.
