Miniature Plastic Party Cups

Lil' Reds are Disposable Shot Glasses That Make Cleaning Easier

Lil' Reds are miniature plastic cups that are perfect to get the party started. With the huge popularity of the 8oz red plastic cups, Lil' Reds cups have decided to accommodate individuals wanting a smaller size.

These cups have it all because they are disposable, petite and can easily be recycled when you are finished using them. You can wash them out, use them again and simply stack them until you use them later.

Plastic cups are growing in popularity among university students and adults because they make cleaning much easier the night after a party. American country music singer Toby Keith even recorded a song called Red Solo Cup. It is clear that there is a huge market for plastic party cups, and Lil' Reds Cups are honing in on this niche.
