Best gluten free bundleBroadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship CupPrefilled communion cups take the filling line out of the church kitchen: each cup arrives sealed, with grape juice inside and, in most boxes, a wafer sealed above it. For a volunteer team that used to spend Saturday evening with a squeeze bottle, that is a real change in how the Lord's Supper is prepared.
Broadman sells its sealed cup as the Fellowship Cup, in several counts and two versions. Below we sort the range by what a church actually needs to decide: how many to buy, whether the bread is in the cup, and how to serve members who must avoid gluten.
Our picks
Broadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship Cup Juice and Wafer Set
The listing describes a prefilled cup with a 100% Concord grape juice blend and an unleavened wafer, ready to serve. It is designed to fit communion trays and supports what the maker calls one-pass serving, since juice and bread reach the pew together. Freshness is guaranteed if used by the date stamped on the box. A 100-count box is a manageable amount for a congregation that serves monthly.
- Juice and wafer in one sealed cup
- Fits standard trays
- Small enough box to use before the date
- Larger churches will open several boxes per service
Broadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship Cup Juice and Wafer Set
This is the same juice-and-wafer Fellowship Cup in a 500-count box. The listing repeats the key points: no refrigeration needed, easy access to the elements and a design that fits communion trays. The color is listed as clear with a purple lid. One carton covers a large single service or several smaller ones.
- Largest single box in the range
- No kitchen prep
- One-pass serving
- Needs dry, cool storage space between services
Broadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship Cup Juice Only
The juice-only Fellowship Cup drops the wafer: you lift the seal to reach the grape juice. The maker says it requires no special preparation or refrigeration. It lets a church keep its own bread, whether soft squares on a plate or wafers in a tray insert. The box holds 100 cups.
- Keeps your choice of bread
- No preparation
- Fits the same tray holes
- Bread must be bought and plated separately
Broadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship Cup
This bundle pairs 100 juice-only cups with two 50-count pouches of baked gluten free round wafers. The listing says the wafers are made on dedicated equipment in a dedicated facility and are free of gluten, dairy, egg, peanut, fish and shellfish. Pouches are resealable to keep unused wafers fresh. It is the simplest way to set a gluten free table without a second supplier.
- Dedicated-facility wafers
- Matched counts of cups and wafers
- Resealable pouches
- Wafers are served separately, not sealed in the cup
Broadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship Cup
The larger bundle holds 200 juice-only cups and 200 pieces of gluten free communion bread. According to the listing, the bread is made on dedicated equipment in a dedicated facility, and the cups use the same 100% Concord grape juice blend. It doubles the bundle above for churches where several members avoid gluten.
- 200 of each element
- Allergen list stated clearly
- Same tray-fit cup
- More stock to rotate before it ages
Broadman Pre-filled Communion Fellowship Cup Juice and Wafer
Two packs of six juice-and-wafer cups in a sturdy plastic container, per the listing. A single seal peels off to reach both bread and juice, and freshness is guaranteed by the stamped date. Six cups fit a hospital room, a home group or a shut-in visit without opening a full carton.
- Small, sturdy container
- Single peel-off seal
- Easy to carry
- Too few cups for a congregation
Which prefilled communion cups fit your church?
Most of the decision comes down to two questions: how many people you serve, and whether the bread should be inside the cup. The table below lines up every Fellowship Cup box in this guide.

If your trays already hold standard cups, any of these will drop in. Broadman sizes plastic cups, glass cups and Fellowship Cups to the same tray holes, so you can switch without buying new serving pieces. See our communion trays guide if you need trays too.

Box size matters because every carton has a stamped date. Buying too many means stock aging on a shelf; buying too few means a rushed order before Easter.

A simple rule: multiply your usual attendance by the number of services before the stamped date, then pick the box that covers that with a small margin for visitors.
What to look for in prefilled communion cups
- Juice only or juice and wafer. The juice-and-wafer cup gives true one-pass serving. Juice only keeps your own bread, which matters if your church prefers soft squares or a broken loaf.
- Gluten free needs. A sealed wafer is wheat based. For members who avoid gluten, the bundles pair juice-only cups with gluten free wafers or bread made in a dedicated facility.
- Storage. The cups need no refrigeration. The site catalogue advises keeping them cool, dry and out of sunlight until the stamped date.
- Tray fit. The listing states the cups are designed to fit communion trays. Standard RemembranceWare disks hold 40 cups, or 32 on the one-pass tray.

How we picked
We included only Broadman Fellowship Cup listings with photos in our catalogue, and gave each pick a distinct role: a box size, a contents option or a gluten free bundle. The 250-count box appears in the table as a middle size.
Every claim above comes from the product listing or the brand's catalogue copy. We read the descriptions on paper and compared counts, contents and stated allergens; we did not rank by star ratings, which change daily.

FAQ
Do prefilled communion cups need to be refrigerated?
No. Broadman states that the Fellowship Cup needs no refrigeration. Store boxes somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight, and use them by the date stamped on the carton.
Do prefilled communion cups fit standard communion trays?
Yes. The listing says the Fellowship Cup is designed to fit communion trays, using the same holes as standard plastic and glass cups. A RemembranceWare tray and disk holds 40.
Is the wafer in the Fellowship Cup gluten free?
No, the sealed wafer is unleavened wheat bread. For a gluten free option, use a juice-only cup with Broadman gluten free wafers or bread, or one of the two bundles that pair them.
What kind of juice is in Broadman prefilled cups?
The listings describe a 100% Concord grape juice blend. The juice-only cup holds juice alone; the juice-and-wafer cup adds an unleavened wafer under a separate seal.
How many prefilled cups should a church order?
Multiply attendance by the number of services you expect before the stamped date, then add a margin for guests. Boxes run 100, 250 and 500, plus 200-count bundles.
Can prefilled cups be used for home or hospital visits?
Yes. The two-pack of six juice-and-wafer cups comes in a sturdy plastic container sized for visitation. For a complete kit, see our portable communion set guide.
