8oz ripple kraft paper cups for hot drinks, takeaway coffee and professional drink service
In stock. Serve small hot drinks professionally with Hippo 8oz Ripple Kraft Paper Hot Drink Cups. These premium disposable coffee cups are engineered for busy coffee shops, artisan espresso bars, bakeries, food trucks, and catering events. They deliver excellent thermal performance alongside a rustic, modern appearance.
This 8oz capacity is the industry-favourite size for serving flat whites, cortados, small lattes, traditional cappuccinos, and teas. These cups feature an integrated triple-wall corrugated ripple layer that traps insulating air pockets. This smart design slows down heat transfer to the outer surface, keeping drinks hot while ensuring the cup stays comfortable to hold. This built-in protection completely eliminates the need for separate cardboard sleeves, saving you counter storage layout space and lowering your individual packaging spend.
The natural kraft brown finish offers an organic look that aligns perfectly with modern, eco-conscious branding styles. The unprinted exterior provides a clean, minimalist template. If you do not want to invest in expensive custom printed cups, this raw kraft layout is perfect for applying your own custom corporate logo stamps or adhesive business labels.
