snack cup

Small food holder

A snack cup is a small, portable container designed for holding individual portions of snacks—typically for children or eating on the go.

The cups often have lids with openings that let small hands reach in while preventing spills: She packed snack cups of Cheerios for the car ride.

The term also applies to single-serve commercial products like fruit cups or pudding cups sold as snacks.
