Custom cake boxes are food-safe boxes built to hold cakes securely while showing them off. The right cake box combines the correct size, a window or full-print exterior, and an insert or board to keep the cake stable in transit. Here is how to choose and design custom cake packaging that protects and sells.
Key takeaways
- Size the box to the cake with a little clearance.
- Windows let customers see the cake; full print builds branding.
- Food-grade board and inserts keep cakes stable.
- Kraft suits artisan bakeries; coated board for vivid print.
Choosing the right size
Measure the cake diameter and height, then add clearance so the lid does not touch the frosting. Common sizes cover cupcakes, single-tier and multi-tier cakes.
Windows, inserts & food safety
Clear window cut-outs boost impulse sales; inserts and cake boards stop movement. All stocks are food-grade for direct contact.
