Measure the cake and its board

A cake box has to fit more than the cake's diameter. Include the board, decoration height and any space needed to lift the cake in and out without touching the finish. If you sell several sizes, list each one separately rather than estimating from a single sample.

Choose a format for the way you sell

A bakery counter, celebration order and delivery collection can call for different presentation details. These requirements need to be checked against the proposed structure rather than assumed.

Before the artwork is approved

  • Provide the board dimensions and the cake's finished height
  • Note the quantity and number of size variants
  • Share the logo, colours and any required product information
  • Explain how the cake will be handed over or transported

Send the measurements and artwork together so the box format can be reviewed before production. Material, print, finish, order quantity, price and timing are confirmed in the final specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which box fits a 6-inch or 8-inch cake?

Start with the product in its finished pack-out, not just the bare item. Share the widest points and any insert or wrap, and the quote can confirm a suitable internal size for Custom Cake Boxes.

Can a cake box hold a tall three-tier cake?

There is no reliable count without the packed dimensions. Include the item size, quantity per box and any wrap or insert; the proposed internal layout can then be confirmed in the quote.

Is there a window on cake boxes?

Yes, a window can be added to the lid to show the cake. Window size and position are set during design.

Will the lid hold up when customers carry the cake by car?

There is no universal weight rating for Custom Cake Boxes. Include the product weight, pack-out and handling route so the proposed structure can be reviewed before production.

Can I add a handle to the cake box?

Add the handle material you have in mind to your brief, along with the dimensions, artwork and quantity. Availability, material and any added cost for Custom Cake Boxes are confirmed in the quote before approval.

Can I print my bakery name on the lid and base?

Yes. The bakery name and logo can be printed on the lid, base or both. Printing options include full colour (CMYK), single colour, foil stamping, spot UV or embossing.

Are cake boxes greaseproof for buttercream and creamy fillings?

Share the food type, temperature and how long it will stay in the pack. The board and any barrier need to be checked for that use, and microwave or heat use should only be considered if the final specification explicitly confirms it.

Can I use one design for cakes and cupcakes?

Cakes and cupcakes need different sizes, so they need separate box designs. We can match the colours and print across both.
