Abstract: A molded tray for holding beverage cups within a range of shapes and sizes is disclosed. The tray has a cup-holding socket proportioned to securely hold inserted cups and prevent them from tipping or falling out of the tray. The cup-holding socket of the tray has stabilizing shoulders and stabilizing walls. The stabilizing walls extend downwardly from the stabilizing shoulders and terminate at a point above the socket floor, creating an opening between the socket floor and the stabilizing wall. The size of the opening is defined as a fraction of the depth of the cup-holding socket.
