You’ve seen these super-early ’90s-style cups everywhere. You’ve probably bought them before when they were out of red Solo cups. You’ve probably drunk from them 1,000,000 times. Now meet the woman behind the cup design!
Her name is Gina Ekiss (prounced GUY-na E-kiss) and she won an internal contest at Sweethart Cup Company (now Dart Container Corparation) in 1991 with her ‘Jazz’ design. The cups were made to replace the ‘Preference’ design.Watch the video to see if she got paid a lot, if she gets royalties, and what she thinks of all the hoopla surrounding her design. This makes me so nostalgic for some reason!
