Best Paper Bowl Mockup Generators

Each mockup generator goes for $7.95, or you can choose Placeit’s monthly ($14.95/month) or yearly ($89.69/year) subscription and save money.

1. Mockup featuring two paper food cups

This is my favorite mockup generator for creating custom paper bowls. Why? Because I’ve probably used it the most.

It worked great for two takeaways and multiple food shops I worked with over the past.

It has two customizable bowls with a lid and an editable background.

You can also keep them full or empty, add graphics and custom texts. The MOST important thing is that you do you because the generator allows you that.

2. Paper soup bowl mockup

Do you need to create custom paper soup bowl mockups? Then I cannot recommend this one more.

It’s extremely simple to use and comes with everything you need.

What’s COOL, you can keep that tomato soup or throw it out and create a presentation of an empty bowl.

But I used both versions to give my client a better picture of what to expect.

3. Two food delivery paper bowls

I LIKE this one because both paper bowls and lids are customizable with any logo or design you want to add.

Yes, that means you must insert four designs (which don’t necessarily need to be different).

For this reason, it works great for various styles or to compare two branding ideas against each other.

Labels and bowls also come with customizable colors, just like the background.

Easy. Peasy.

4. Paper food delivery packaging mockup

Whether it’s a soup, noodle bowl, or ramen, well, you decide, this paper bowl mockup generator SIMPLY WORKS!

You can add two different designs to the main compartments and two to the covers.

It’s effortless work because it only requires some clicking and having fun with color and graphic choices.

What I also like is that you can upload a custom background!

5. Two stacked food bowls mockup

Two paper bowls, one on top of the other with the top one also having an editable lid – that’s what’s going on right now.

And this EXCITING way of presenting your design idea can be all yours.

You are even welcome to test it out free of charge because Placeit allows you so.

However, I recommend creating an account because it makes the process much more comfortable long-term.

6. Realistic paper bowl mockup

But this is the way to go if you want something more realistic when creating a paper bowl design.

Sure, the lady eats a bowl of instant noodle soup, but you can creatively use it for something else.

This is VERY quick to work with because all it takes is to insert your image and (optionally) change the color of the bowl.

You can also add text and graphics, but please don’t overdo it because you can easily ruin the whole thing.

7. Highly customizable paper bowl mockup

If you need something more theme-specific, like Italian cuisine, opt for this cool mockup generator with OH SO many options.

While you can fully customize the paper bowl, you can also play with the extra, which you can change, remove, add, whatever.

Be as creative as you want, and don’t forget to adjust the background. You can make it look like a table or a giant picnic blanket.

Hey, I’m just giving you ideas.

Enjoy.

Simplicity always wins regardless of the product presentation you’re working on. Even in the case of creating custom branding for a paper bowl!

And this is an EXCELLENT example of how you do things the right way.

Remember, you can customize all sides of the bowl except the bottom. What’s even better, you can choose to go with a paper or plastic/transparent cover.

10. 750ml paper bowl clear lid mockup

This is a larger paper container of 750ml that works great for fruits, vegetables, salads, hot dishes, you name it.

Each element of the mockup is fully configurable to do your thing WITHOUT limitations.

You can also choose the version with the lid (two options) or the one without.

And to spice things up even further, the mockup comes with predefined noodles, salad and fruits that you can add to the bowl. But you can also leave it empty.

I’m really getting hungry right now! Definitely craving a fruit salad.

11. Paper bowl PSD template

While this one is more on the basic side, it’s the main reason WHY I decided to add it to the collection.

Plus, I used the version with three bowls twice, and both clients loved it.
