In today’s fast-paced urban lifestyle, consumers' demand for dining convenience is ever-growing. The Zuoting Youyuan Hot Pot Cup was designed to meet this need. Inspired by the classic "instant noodle" design, it seamlessly transitions from dine-in to takeout scenarios. This innovative and aesthetically pleasing takeout cup redefines the culinary experience by merging functionality with style.

The hot pot cup is composed of three parts: the cup body, a flat lid, and a high lid. The inner flat lid provides insulation, while the outer high lid serves as protection and can also be used as a small bowl, offering an additional dry-mixing option for a diverse taste experience.

The dual-layer lid design enables the separation of dry and wet foods, ensuring the optimal taste and freshness of beef while effectively preventing soup leakage. It maintains excellent sealing performance even in high-temperature environments. Without the need for cling film, the cup securely contains soups during transit.

This innovative design eliminates cumbersome unpacking steps, reduces unnecessary packaging, and significantly saves on material costs and storage space, making it an eco-friendly and convenient choice.

The cup features innovative biosensor technology, with a visible temperature indicator on the body. When the food exceeds 45°C, the indicator changes from dark to bright, clearly signaling the temperature and ensuring the food is enjoyed at its peak.

The flat lid and thickened cup body further enhance heat retention, allowing users to savor a hot beef hot pot even in cold weather. Additionally, a tamper-evident, single-use safety seal guarantees food security during transit, giving consumers peace of mind and confidence in their meals.
