Cake Box Packaging That Holds Up (and Looks the Part)
A cake box should do more than just carry dessert — it should help protect your work, elevate your brand, and make it to the table without smudging a thing.
Our cake box packaging is ideal for:
- Bakery orders, shopfront sales, and takeaway
- Gifting and cake box delivery
- Boxes for cake slices or full cakes
- Stacked bakes, sponge layers, and delicate frostings
- Window cake boxes that show off the top without opening the lid
Whether you’re after small cake boxes for minis, wedding cake slice boxes for event handouts, or tall cake boxes for stacked creations, we’ll build it to fit the product and the moment.
Designed Around Your Product — Not a Template
We don’t do one-size-fits-all. Every box is made to measure, printed to match your style, and cut to fit your cake like a glove.
You can customise:
- Size and height to suit layers or tiers
- Coated or uncoated card for different packaging finishes
- Cardboard cake boxes with or without windows
- Insert trays or bases for extra support
- Personalised cake boxes with your logo, tagline, or ingredient info
- Handles, locking tabs, or auto-lock bottoms for easy transport
Need your box of cakes to look sharp on a shelf? Or want to pack fragile frosting without smudging it during delivery? We’ll sort the structure for that — no overthinking required.
Built to Keep It Fresh, Safe, and Shelf-Ready
We’ve worked with hundreds of cake brands, cafés, event caterers, and online bakeries — so we know what the packaging needs to do:
- Prevent movement or sliding in transit
- Keep the product upright (especially for cake in a box designs)
- Allow for ventilation where needed (for moist or whipped toppings)
- Protect decoration edges and frosting height
- Withstand cold chain handling or same-day delivery boxes
And if your box doubles as cake box packaging and gift wrapping? Even better — we’ll make sure it looks beautiful straight out of the van.
Food-Safe, Sustainable & Retail-Ready
All of our custom cake boxes are made from food-contact safe materials, printed with low-migration, bakery-safe inks, and available in:
- FSC® certified cardboard
- Kraft or recyclable paperboard options
- Plastic-free window film (on request)
- Optional compostable coatings
- Recyclability symbols and disposal guidance (optional)
We’ll help you meet retailer or café sustainability policies without sacrificing the shelf appeal or print quality your brand needs.
