The UPrinting Advantage of Custom Printed Pie Boxes
Choose a size that fits the exact dimensions of your pie
Custom pie boxes that are too small or big for your food product will end up damaging it. You also need a little space for the pie to breathe and keep it fresh. Before making estimates for the box, measure the length, width, and depth of your pie. From there, you can base the dimensions for the box itself.
To accurately measure the box’s dimensions, use the guide below. Note that the length, width, and height must account for the inside measurements and not the exterior ones.
Customize the details to match your branding.
The exterior of your pie boxes for sale is where you’ll highlight your bakery or restaurant’s logo and name. Maximize the front and back sides to remind customers who you are. You can also include other informative details at the back such as your list of ingredients, consumption recommendations, and maybe a little background on your small business.
Depending on the weight and texture of your pies, you can manufacture pie boxes on the following materials:
- 14 pt. cardstock is a lightweight yet durable option normally seen in standard business cards. Highly recommended for small, easy to carry pies.
- 18 pt. cardstock is a little thicker than the standard and can take the weight of pies with thicker exteriors. Suited for pies that need more support but are working around a limited budget.
- 24 pt. cardstock is the thickest option available. The best option for those with higher budget and need a more luxurious feel to their packaging.
Start with a sample box or order in bulk to maximize your budget.
