If you’re presenting a yogurt or dessert cup label, this splash paper coffee cup mockup makes the idea feel real before anything is produced. The paper surface is the main character here, so designs with some contrast stand out best.
Useful for coffee brands as much as for cafés. If the file lets you change the lid or sleeve colour, match it to your brand; it pulls the image together.
It’s the quickest way to check whether a logo still works when it’s small and curved.
Free PSD Templates created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.
Splash Paper Coffee Cup Mockup: editable parts
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Logo or pattern, placed through the smart object
- Cup, lid or sleeve colour
- Highlights on the curve
Editing the Splash Paper Coffee Cup Mockup, step by step
- Centre your design on the side that faces the viewer.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Swap the background colour.
- Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.
Worth remembering: a logo that works on a business card usually works on a cup. Long slogans rarely do.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
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 cup?
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.
Will my logo follow the curve?
Curved-surface mockups use a warp or displacement so the print bends with the cup. Keep key text in the middle, where the curve distorts it least.
