ice cream cup

Scooped treat container

A small container, typically made of paper or plastic, used to serve individual portions of ice cream.

Ice cream cups are standard at shops, parties, and concession stands where bowls would be impractical: The vendor handed each child an ice cream cup with a tiny wooden spoon.

The term also refers to the serving itself.
