Sauce Cups & Portion Containers
Every takeout order needs sauce cups — for dressings, dipping sauces, condiments, and samples. They cost pennies per unit but a missing or leaking sauce cup can ruin an entire order. We supply PP, PET, and PLA sauce cups in all standard sizes with flat, hinged, and sealed lid options.

Materials
PP (standard): Translucent, flexible, chemical-resistant, microwave-safe. The cheapest option. PET (clear): Crystal-clear transparency for visual presentation. 10–20% premium over PP. PLA (compostable): Plant-based, clear, certified compostable. 30–50% premium.
Lid Options
Flat snap lids: Standard friction-fit, adequate for upright transport. Hinged lids: Attached to cup body, can’t get lost — ideal for self-service. Sealed/peel-off lids: Heat-bonded foil seal, virtually leak-proof — ideal for delivery and meal prep.
Bundling Advantage
Sauce cups are most cost-effective when ordered alongside your main containers. Adding sauce cups to an existing order barely affects shipping costs because they nest compactly. A single order of 50,000 sets (6+ months supply for most restaurants) costs $500–$1,000.
