What each size is used for

  • 1oz: ketchup, hot sauce, dipping sauces and samples.
  • 1.5oz to 2oz: dressings, salsa and wing sauces.
  • 3.25oz to 4oz: side sauces, guacamole, coleslaw, toppings and small desserts.
  • 5.5oz: larger sides, fruit and pudding cups.

Black portion cups hide sauce stains and look more upscale on a dine-in plate; clear cups let customers see what they ordered at a glance.
