These types of cups are mainly for frozen drink/slushie consumption. Slushies are thick walled cups made from plastic and are frozen beverage playful-themed. Each cup is constructed from sturdy materials which provides insulation to the cups, thus aiding them in keeping the slush in the cup from melting too fast. Some cups are clear and show the colorful drinks, while others are completely opaque and have colorful designs. Also, slush cups are fantastic for use in ice-cream parlors, ice cream shops and carnival booths. Many businesses prefer custom made slush cups to enhance competition. Besides serving the purpose of attracting customers, these cups also help advertise the business when customized for special occasions.
