What Is a Butterfly Cup?
If you've ever struggled with a wobbly lid on a takeaway coffee, the butterfly cup was made for you. Unlike standard paper cups, the butterfly cup features a creative folded-top design that transforms the rim itself into a secure, sip-ready opening — no lid required.
At Yongfa Packaging, our ready-to-ship butterfly cups are crafted from 300gsm food-grade paper with a fully paper-based, plastic-free inner lining — delivering reliable leak resistance and structural strength, without a single piece of plastic.
