Ordering custom printed cups in bulk doesn't have to be complicated. Whether you're a coffee shop owner placing your first order or a large chain looking for consistent branded packaging, this guide walks you through everything you need to know — from choosing the right cup to getting your order delivered on time.
Step 1: Choose Your Cup Type
The first step is deciding which type of cup fits your business. Here are the main options available at CustomPaperCup.com:
- Paper hot cups — Available in 8oz through 20oz. Perfect for coffee, tea, and hot chocolate.
- Clear cold cups — Available in 10oz through 24oz. Ideal for iced drinks, smoothies, and juices.
- Double wall insulated cups — Premium cups that eliminate the need for a sleeve. Great for specialty coffee shops.
Step 2: Prepare Your Artwork
Great custom cups start with great artwork. Here's what you'll need:
- A high-resolution logo file (vector format like .AI or .EPS is ideal, but high-res .PNG or .PDF also works)
- Your brand colors (Pantone or CMYK values preferred)
- Any text, taglines, or contact information you want on the cup
Don't have artwork ready? No problem — our team can help you create a design. Just share your logo and ideas, and we'll build a custom cup template for your approval.

Every business has different needs. Our team provides custom pricing based on your cup type, size, quantity, and any special requirements. Simply fill out our quote form or call us directly at 567-694-8225 to discuss your order.
Step 4: Review and Approve Your Proof
Before we print, you'll receive a digital proof showing exactly how your cups will look. This is your chance to check colors, text, and logo placement. We won't print until you're 100% satisfied with the design.
Step 5: Production and Delivery
Once you approve the proof, production begins. Our standard turnaround time is 10–15 business days. Your order is carefully packaged and shipped directly to your location.
