This yummy ice cream cup mockup is one of the simpler ways to present a tub label or a popsicle wrapper convincingly.
It’s a handy file for packaging designers and dessert brands. A small tip: build the label or dieline flat first, then place it; bending text inside the mockup is harder to fix later.
It’s also handy for crowdfunding pages and pitch decks, when the product exists but the packaging hasn’t been printed yet. Show it with a shipping box or bag from the same range to present the whole unboxing.

What’s inside the Yummy Ice Cream Cup Mockup PSD
Open it in Photoshop and you can change:
- Label or box artwork, placed through the smart object
- Background colour
- Shadows
- Gloss and highlight layers
Editing the Yummy Ice Cream Cup Mockup, step by step
- Export each side of the pack as its own image if the file has separate smart objects.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- 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.
One more thing: glossy packaging picks up highlights over your art; reduce the highlight layer if your logo gets washed out.

Questions about this mockup
Can I use this ice cream packaging mockup for client work?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Zippypixels. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I add my design?
Open the file in Photoshop, double-click the smart object thumbnail, paste or place your artwork in the new tab, save it (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close. The main file updates on its own.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Is the design wrapped around the shape?
Round packs usually use warp or displacement so the label bends with the shape. Flat boxes use separate smart objects for each visible side.
