Frequently Asked Questions About Ice Cream Packaging
What size containers do most ice cream shops use?
Most ice cream shops use 3-gallon tubs for back-of-house storage and display cabinets. For retail, 16 oz (pint) and 32 oz (quart) containers are standard. Single servings typically use 4-8 oz cups. The 3-gallon size is the industry standard because it fits perfectly in commercial dipping cabinets.
Are your containers truly freezer-safe for ice cream?
Yes, all our containers are specifically designed for frozen applications. Most containers are tested to withstand temperatures down to -5°F, preventing cracking or brittleness. They've been tested for long-term freezer storage and maintain their seal integrity.
Can I get custom labels for small batch or seasonal flavors?
Absolutely! We offer the lowest minimums in the industry—starting at just 60 units for pressure-sensitive labels. This makes it perfect for seasonal flavors, limited editions, or testing new products. We also provide free design services to help create your custom labels.
Do you have minimum order requirements?
We offer low minimum order requirements that make it easy for businesses of all sizes. While some items are available individually, most products come in convenient case quantities. This is perfect for small shops, new businesses, or anyone testing new products without overcommitting to large orders.
How quickly can I get my order?
Most orders ship the same business day if placed before our cutoff time. From our Indiana warehouse, we typically deliver within 1-3 business days to most of the continental US. We understand that running out of containers can shut down operations, so we prioritize fast fulfillment.
Will the containers prevent freezer burn?
Our containers with properly fitted lids create an airtight seal that significantly reduces freezer burn. The key is minimizing air exposure—fill containers leaving only about ½ inch headspace, and ensure lids are firmly pressed down. Many shops also place plastic wrap directly on the ice cream surface for extra protection.
Are the containers stackable for storage?
Yes, all our containers are designed to stack efficiently. Our round containers nest when empty to save storage space, and stack securely when filled with recessed or flat lids. The 3-gallon tubs are specifically designed to stack in commercial freezers and dipping cabinets.
Seasonal Planning for Ice Cream Shops
🌞 Summer Season Tip
Ice cream sales typically increase 30-50% during summer months. We recommend ordering containers 30 days before peak season (May-August) to ensure availability. Consider stocking up on to-go containers, as take-home orders increase significantly during warm weather.
Spring (March-May)
- Order summer inventory
- Test new seasonal flavors
- Update custom labels
- Stock sample cups for tastings
Summer (June-August)
- Peak season—maximum inventory
- Focus on to-go containers
- Stock cup carriers for families
- Extra straws for shakes/floats
Fall (September-November)
- Transition to fall flavors
- Prepare for holiday orders
- Stock pints/quarts for holidays
- Plan custom holiday labels
Winter (December-February)
- Focus on take-home sizes
- Cater to holiday parties
- Stock 1-gallon for catering
- Plan for Valentine's specials
