What is a cup corn live station?
A cup corn live station is a warm sweet corn station operated by a dedicated FunCo staff member at your event. The operator serves warm buttered sweet corn kernels in cups, portioning and handing them directly to guests throughout your event duration.
What seasoning is served with the cup corn?
Warm butter is the standard seasoning — ladled over sweet corn kernels just before serving for a classic, clean flavour that appeals to all ages.
Is cup corn gluten-free?
Yes — sweet corn with butter is naturally gluten-free, making cup corn one of the most broadly suitable live food station options for events with guests who have gluten sensitivities. Confirm specific dietary requirements at the point of booking.
Is the cup corn live station halal?
Halal-friendly ingredients are available on request. Let us know your dietary requirements at the point of booking and we'll confirm halal-certified butter and corn options for your event.
Does the station contain any common allergens?
The standard cup corn contains dairy (butter). It is naturally gluten-free and nut-free. We recommend labelling the station accordingly and advising guests with dairy sensitivities. Contact us at booking to discuss dairy-free options if required.
Does the live station include an operator?
Yes — a dedicated FunCo operator is included with every live station rental. Your operator handles corn temperature management, portioning, guest serving, and station hygiene throughout your event.
What power does the station require?
A single standard 13A power socket within reach of the station is all that's required — used to power the commercial corn warmer.
Can the live station be set up outdoors?
Yes. The corn warmer produces minimal heat and no frying vapour, making cup corn one of the most adaptable live food stations for both indoor and sheltered outdoor venues. For open-air outdoor events, confirm shelter availability to protect the warmer from direct rain.
How many guests can the station serve?
Output depends on portioning speed and cup size. We advise on quantity planning at the point of booking based on your expected guest count and event duration. For very large events (300+ pax), we can discuss additional warmer arrangements.
How far in advance should I book?
Book at least 7 working days in advance. Peak seasons — year-end D&Ds, school carnival season, CNY, and National Day — fill up quickly. Two to three weeks earlier is safer for peak periods.
How long can I rent the live station for?
We offer flexible rental durations — hourly packages and full-day event setups are both available. Contact us with your event timeline for a tailored quote.
Is cup corn suitable for children's events?
Absolutely — cup corn is one of the safest and most child-friendly live food station options we offer. No frying, no sharp implements, no messy sauces, and a naturally wholesome snack that parents appreciate. Suitable for all ages including very young children.
How does cup corn differ from popcorn?
Both are corn-based snacks but deliver completely different experiences. Cup corn is warm buttered sweet corn kernels served in a cup — naturally wholesome, savoury, and meal-adjacent. Popcorn is popped dried corn kernels — lighter, crunchier, and carnival-style. Many clients serve both at the same event for variety.
Can I brand the live station with my company logo?
Station signage options may be available as an add-on. Contact us at booking to discuss branding options for your event.

Do you price match with other vendors?
Yes. FunCo offers price matching across our event rental services. Share a quote from another Singapore vendor and we'll match it where possible.
