Custom Logo Print French Fries Fried Chicken Cups Nuggets FastFood Packaging

Our french fry containers are open-top paperboard cups with a lowered curved front and a taller back wall, so fries, wedges, or nuggets stay within reach instead of behind a deep rim. The blank is cut to your footprint, not a fixed size list, and each fries container stands square on its narrow base as an order is assembled. Buyers order the same shape as paper snack cups for a small side, as a french fries holder for a sharing portion, and as french fry cups for fried chicken pieces. Food-grade board lined with PE or PLA takes CMYK or PMS print; plain kraft stays available. You set wall height and front curve before the die is cut.

A Lowered Front Edge and a Taller Back Wall

The wall heights do the work. A shallow U-shaped cut runs across the front so a server can scoop fries straight in and a customer reach the last pieces, while the taller back and side panels stop the load tipping forward. The blank is creased before forming, so folds stay straight and the base closes flat. An open top lets the cup be filled and handed over in one motion. Set the front dip, wall height, and base width from the portion you serve, and we cut the die to those three figures. One run of french fry containers covers a side order and a larger french fries holder format without asking staff to change their grip.

Grease Barrier, Board Caliper, and Food Contact

Both the board and its lining are chosen for fried food, not drinks. Food-grade paper is paired with a PE or PLA lining on the food-facing side, which stops oil wicking through and greying the print over a normal service period. Thickness follows the load: a light side of fries needs less caliper than a tall cup packed with wedges, and a heavier sheet keeps the back wall upright while the portion is hot. The surface touching the food stays unprinted. Give us the item and its holding time, and we will set barrier and caliper before plates are made. For a fries container serving several fried items, fix the barrier and caliper before artwork begins.

Ink Coverage Across an Uneven Wall

Printing is applied while the board is flat, before the creases and curved front cut are made, so a solid colour runs across the tall back panel without stretching at a fold. CMYK covers process-colour artwork and fine gradations; PMS locks a brand shade to one reference for every reorder; plain kraft stays an option. How much of the outer wall carries ink is yours to set, from a restrained mark to an all-over repeat, on one dieline. Fine type reads cleanly because ink lands on a flat sheet; keep it clear of the crease zones and dipped front edge. Send artwork with bleed marked and we will map the die for paper snack cups before plates are cut.

Made-to-Order Footprints, Proofs, and Repeat Runs

Every dimension is open: base width, wall height, and front-curve depth come from the portion, so a single brand layout can be rebuilt for two or three footprints and keep one look across the counter. Free samples from current stock and a three-day printed proof let you load a real portion and check the front edge before committing. A run opens at 20,000 pieces with a 10–15 working day lead counted from the approved proof. Colour targets, the die drawing, and paper lot are filed with that proof, so a later batch of french fry cups prints to the same reference as the first. Cutting, printing, forming, and inspection are scheduled as one job.
