Paper Straws 12mm x 230mm Individually Wrapped
The 12mm paper straw for bubble tea and tapioca-pearl service
The 12mm diameter is the widest paper straw in the EaziPak range — sized to draw tapioca pearls, popping boba, jelly cubes and the thickest milkshakes without jamming at the tip. Bubble-tea operators and thick-shake sites specify 12mm as the standard bore, since anything thinner will not pass a standard tapioca pearl. Individually wrapped for hygiene, 230mm length clears a bubble-tea cup with dome lid.
Full carton or single pack — both retail-ready
Two pack sizes for different operator profiles. Full carton (2400 straws) is the standing-order economy for bubble-tea shops, dessert bars and thick-shake counters running steady service. Single retail pack (200 straws) suits event caterers, dessert pop-ups, sites trialling a bubble-tea menu, or operators with limited storage. Same 12mm x 230mm straw either way.

Frequently asked questions
Will tapioca pearls pass through the 12mm straw?
Yes — 12mm is the standard bore for bubble tea, popping boba and jelly-cube drinks. For milkshakes and smoothies without pearls, the 10mm paper straw is the leaner option. For everyday soft drinks, the 8mm paper straw is the standard diameter.
Are these straws UK Plastic Straw Ban compliant?
Yes. The 12mm paper straw is the compliant paper alternative to the plastic straw phased out by the UK ban in October 2020 — the standard for bubble-tea and thick-shake service.
Should I order the full carton or the single pack?
Full carton (2400) for standing bubble-tea or dessert service. Single pack (200) for trial menus, event pop-ups or operators with limited storage.
