FAQs
Can I use these lids with hot coffee?
No, these lids are made of PLA and will lose their shape if exposed to hot temperatures.
Are these lids home compostable?

What cup sizes are compatible with these lids?
These are compatible with 12oz, 16oz, and 20oz Fiesta cold cups.
Are these lids BPA-free?
Yes, as they are derived from plant-based PLA rather than traditional plastics, they do not contain BPA.
How many lids come in a single case?
Each pack contains 1000 individual domed lids.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not snap onto the cup securely.
Ensure you are using the correct cup size and that the cup rim is not damaged or bent.
Lid appears warped or distorted.
The lids were likely exposed to heat; keep them in a cool storage location and discard any deformed units.
Difficulty separating lids from the stack.
Gently twist the stack rather than pulling straight up to break the suction between individual lids.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a proper seal, align the rim of the dome lid squarely with the top of your compatible Fiesta cold cup. Press down firmly around the edges until you feel the lid snap into place. When storing these lids, keep them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight or heat sources like espresso machines or ovens, as excessive heat will cause the PLA material to soften and lose its structural integrity. Always check the cup size compatibility before application to ensure the rim diameters match.
