Show a tub label the way it will actually look: on an ice cream jar mockup.
Packaging designers and dessert brands tend to get the most out of files like this. Render two colour versions side by side. Clients choose faster when they compare.
It’s also handy for crowdfunding pages and pitch decks, when the product exists but the packaging hasn’t been printed yet. A matching label or sticker mockup rounds out the set.
Use it for
- A tub label
- An ice cream cup design
- A popsicle wrapper

What you can edit in this Ice Cream Jar Mockup
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Label or box artwork, placed through the smart object
- Background colour
- Gloss and highlight layers
- Base colour of the pack
Add your design to the Ice Cream Jar Mockup
- Finish the label first, with barcode and small print in place.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Turn the highlight layer down if it washes out your logo.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
Another tip: build the label or dieline flat first, then place it; bending text inside the mockup is harder to fix later.
Where the Ice Cream Jar Mockup works best
- Present a popsicle wrapper in a client proposal or brand guide.
- Show a tub label on your online shop or product page.
- Make two or three colour versions of an ice cream cup design and let the client pick.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this ice cream packaging mockup for client work?
Free PSD Templates sets the licence, and it can differ from file to file. Many free files allow personal and commercial use, but some are personal-only or ask for credit. Read the terms on the download page before a paid project.
How do I put my artwork on the ice cream packaging?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
Can I change the packaging colour?
Usually yes. There is normally a colour layer under the design smart object, so you can change the base colour without touching your artwork.
