Show a company logo the way it will actually look: on a front mug mockup.
Corporate merch teams and print-on-demand sellers tend to get the most out of files like this. Quick tip: mug prints wrap around; if the preview shows one side, keep the design centred on that side.
Cafés and coffee brands use renders like this for menus, social posts and supplier pitches. Pair it with a coffee bag or menu mockup for a complete café presentation.
Good for
- A company logo
- An illustration

What’s inside the Front Mug Mockup PSD
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Logo or pattern, placed through the smart object
- Background colour
- Cup, lid or sleeve colour
- Highlights on the curve
Add your design to the Front Mug Mockup
- Prepare the logo or pattern as a PNG with a transparent background.
- Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
- Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
Another tip: cups are curved, so keep the logo compact and centred on the visible side.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this mug mockup for client work?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Creatoom. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the mug?
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 cup colour?
Most cup and mug mockups keep the body colour on its own layer, so you can change it without touching your design.
