Bakery Boxes

Fulfill your bakery packaging needs with assorted cake boxes and bakery packaging supplies

Your bakery may specialize in one type of confection, like cakes, or be diverse and create many types of treats, but either way, you'll need bakery boxes to pack up your customers' selections. These boxes provide a clean, dry storage area to transport cakes, cookies, pastries, donuts, muffins and anything else you can come up with.

You'll need a variety of bakery packaging to fit your needs, not just boxes, but other supplies as well. Consider the following:

1. Make your customers' mouths water when they take home your food in bakery boxes with windows. Choose the proper size boxes for each kind of item you make and buy in bulk.

2. Consider getting custom bakery boxes made with your company's name imprinted. When your customers walk around with one of your boxes, they'll be walking advertisements.

3. Buy any other cake packaging supplies you need. You may need cake pads, tissue paper, tape to seal boxes and bags to help your customers carry large orders.

 

Attract your customers by using bakery boxes with windows

Windows show off your creations and entice customers to buy from you. Since they can see exactly what they're getting, they're more likely to find a cake or other confection that they think looks delicious and purchase it. Give them a peek of what they have to look forward to.

Have custom bakery boxes printed with your logo

In addition to providing advertising for your company, custom printed boxes just look nicer than plain ones. It shows that you care about how your customers perceive you and that you've taken the time to create a brand.

Stock all the bakery packaging supplies you'll need

Along with bakery boxes, you'll need an assortment of items to help out with packaging. For example, to support a cake in a cake box, you have to place it on a cake circle or pad. This keeps the cake level and adds some sturdiness during transport. Also, you have to keep your hands off the food when serving it or packing it, as per the Department of Health, so using a food service-grade tissue paper is the proper way to handle food when a customer makes their choice.
Try: Stock up on all sizes of white cake circles at Brenmar Company. Protect your customers' food by using Quicksheets from Instawares Restaurant Supply.

 

• Buying wholesale bakery boxes can help you get a handle on your cash flow. Plain white bakery boxes are available in large quantities and cost you less in the long run. Perhaps the least expensive way for you to create customized boxes for your bakery is to get stickers made up with your logo and then seal your customers' boxes with your stickers. You'll spend less money on boxes but still proudly display your name.
