Sauces are served with most meals to add flavor and spice in a way that your customers can control. They like having the ability to customize their meals with different sauces. However, the little plastic cups that most restaurants use can hurt the environment. They may be small, but companies use them in very high-quantities, to the order of 1-4 per meal. This adds up to a big problem when they are disposed of. 

Your restaurant can be different by offering customers the same variety in sauce options and customization, but with a sauce container that is better for the environment. PacknWood’s Brown Sugarcane Souffle – Portion Cup is the key to improving your impact on the environment. 

Brown Sugarcane and the Environment

PacknWood’s Brown Sugarcane Souffle – Portion Cup is better for the environment than the traditional cups that most company’s use because they are made out of brown sugarcane. Sugarcane is used to produce sugar, which leaves behind the pulp from the plant after the sugar is extracted. By forming this pulp into sauce cups, restaurants have an alternative to plastic that is both biodegradable and compostable. When disposed of, it can be industrially composted to make fertilizer for farming or dissolved in a landfill without leaving behind harmful chemicals or residue. 

Quality Features

These sugarcane cups offer many of the quality features as plastic cups, and several extra benefits. These cups have a textured outer surface, which makes it easier to pick up. The sugarcane provides some insulation, so cold sauces won’t form condensation on the outside of the cup and make them harder to hold onto. Sugarcane cups are sturdy, and won’t breakdown when filled. Plus, there is a lid available making these cups an option for takeout and delivery orders. 

2 Ounces of Sauce

One of the benefits of this sauce container is that it can hold a large amount of sauce. It holds up to 2 oz of sauce. That is more than enough for most orders making this cup an effective choice for nearly any order. Despite its holding capacity, this cup maintains a small form factor. At 2.1-inches in diameter, it won’t take up a lot of space in takeout containers or bags, and you won’t lose money on wasted sauce. 

Why Brown Sugarcane?

Choosing brown sugarcane for these 2oz Brown Sugarcane Souffle – Portion Cups makes an impression on customers. Brown sugarcane is in its most natural form. No additional modifications or chemicals were needed to change the color. That means that you are getting sauce containers that won’t leach chemicals into customers’ food, which can be a problem when traditional containers are hot or wet.  The brown textured finish also has a more natural, healthier look to it. Some customers will appreciate this and your restaurant for taking the additional steps needed to offer eco-friendly restaurant supplies with delicious meals.
