dome lid

Curved container top

A dome lid is a raised, curved plastic cover for disposable cups, typically used for cold drinks topped with whipped cream or for iced beverages that mound above the rim.

The dome shape accommodates toppings that a flat lid would crush: I need a dome lid for this frappuccino.

Common in coffee shops and fast-food restaurants.
