11oz Color-Changing Sublimation Mug – Heat-Reactive Black
Surprise and engage with our 11oz Color-Changing Sublimation Mug, featuring a black heat-reactive coating that transforms when hot liquid is added. When cold, the mug appears solid black. As heat is applied, the coating fades to white, revealing your sublimated artwork, photos, or text in full color.
Made from high-quality ceramic with a gloss polyester finish, this mug is ideal for novelty items, surprise gifts, and interactive branding pieces. It supports both sublimation and laser transfer methods, making it a favorite among custom product sellers.
