Custom Paper Cones for Popcorn.

No, a cone has no base, so it needs a hand, a stand or a counter holder. Plan the support before anything else, and we'll cut the cone to fit standard concession holders.

Because cones are open and unstable, they aren't suited to delivery. They work best at events and occasion service, where the snack is eaten on the spot.

Less than its height suggests, because the taper leaves the lower third with very little volume. A cone looks generous since the portion sits wide at the top, which is part of its appeal at the counter.

It won't match a box of the same height for volume, and we don't sell it as a like-for-like swap. If you're changing formats, send your current portion and we'll suggest a cone height that serves it.

Butter and fry oil run down to the point and collect there. Our PFAS-free barrier is specified for that concentration, and grease-tolerant ink keeps artwork near the tip legible.

Clay-coated board adds a sealed surface on top of the barrier. On larger cones we step up to a heavier caliper, which stops the cone buckling when a full portion is gripped in the middle.

Red stripe is the traditional fairground pattern and still the most recognisable choice. Full CMYK wraps your own artwork around the whole cone, and a newsprint effect is popular for chips and fried snacks.

Plain kraft suits rustic event styling. Keep the logo bold and high on the cone, where it can be read across a busy cinema foyer.

Our common heights are 6 in for a medium and 8 in for a large. Cones are specified by height from tip to rim along with the rim diameter, which decides how the cone sits in a holder.

If you already have counter stands, send us their opening size. We can make several sizes on the same artwork, so a medium and a large share one design.

Very little, since cones nest more tightly than any other serving format. A stack takes a fraction of the room the same count of boxes or bags would, which is the format's main practical benefit on an event trailer.

Each cone is one rolled sheet, the least material of any popcorn pack we make. For events with composting, we make the same cone on PLA-lined board.

A printed cone run starts at 500. Above 1,000, the price per cone moves down through tiers, and a single order can reach 100,000.

Event caterers often start at the minimum for one festival, then reorder once they know how many they serve in a day.

Allow 7 to 10 business days for production once the proof is approved, plus shipping time. A rush slot of 5 to 7 business days is there for events that come up quickly.

If you want to check the fit in your holders first, samples take 5 to 7 business days. The sample fee is set against the production order, so it isn't an extra cost when you go ahead.
