When it comes to serving hot beverages like coffee, tea, and hot chocolate, the right cup can make all the difference. At Advanced Disposables, we offer a wide range of hot cups that combine functionality, style, and sustainability. 

Whether you're running a cafe, food truck, or catering service, this guide will help you choose the best hot cups to enhance your beverage service and meet your business needs.

Types of Hot Cups: Find the Perfect Fit

Choosing the right type of hot cup is essential for ensuring that your drinks are served at the ideal temperature while providing comfort to your customers. Here’s a breakdown of the different types of hot cups available at Advanced Disposables:

• Single Wall Cups: Lightweight and cost-effective, these cups are ideal for lower-temperature drinks or when paired with a sleeve for added insulation. They’re a popular choice for businesses looking to balance cost and functionality.

• Double Wall Cups: Featuring two layers of material, these cups offer additional insulation, keeping drinks hotter for longer while protecting hands from heat. They’re perfect for serving drinks on the go without the need for an additional sleeve.

• Ripple Cups: With a unique textured surface, ripple cups provide extra grip and heat insulation. The stylish design not only adds to the customer experience but also reduces the need for sleeves, making them a practical and attractive option.

Size Matters: Choose the Right Cup Size

Having a variety of sizes and options available is crucial to any coffee shop, cafe or restaurant to provide your customers with their desired portion. At Advanced Disposables, our hot cups come in a variety of sizes to accommodate different drink preferences:

• 8oz: A popular choice for small coffees, teas and cappuccinos. 

• 12oz: Ideal for medium sized beverages, including lattes and hot chocolates. 

• 16oz: The go-to option for large drinks, perfect for customers who enjoy a bigger serving.
