Food Packaging Boxes for Bakeries, Kitchens and Drinks Brands

Food packaging boxes are the printed cartons that move baked goods, prepared meals, confectionery and drinks from your counter or kitchen to the customer. Half Price Packaging makes them to order for UK food and drink brands, sized to the product rather than picked off a shelf, so a six cupcake tray and a single brownie do not end up in the same carton. Formats in the range include gable boxes, window boxes, tuck end cartons, sleeve and tray sets, kraft boxes and beverage cartons, printed in full colour. Free design support is available if your artwork is not ready, and a digital proof is approved before production starts.

Bakery counter and cake formats

Bakery briefs are usually about visibility and handling. Bakery packaging covers cake boxes, cupcake and pastry cartons and biscuit boxes, and a window box lets the product sell itself without the lid coming off. Gable boxes give a carry handle for cookies and treat boxes. Kraft board suits bakeries that want an uncoated, hand finished look, while a laminated surface holds up better against handling in a busy shop.

Takeaway and delivery formats

Delivery changes the brief. A carton that looks right on a counter still has to survive a moped ride and stack inside a courier bag. Snap lock bases assemble quickly during service. Sleeve and tray sets let one printed sleeve cover several product variants, which keeps artwork work down across a menu. Kraft take out and togo formats sit alongside the box range for operators packing for both the counter and the app.

Drinks and beverage cartons

Drinks brands normally need two things from a carton: it holds bottles or cans upright, and it reads as a set. Beverage box packaging covers multipack cartons, single bottle boxes and printed sleeves. Inserts and dividers can be specified so glass does not travel loose. Tell us the bottle height and diameter and the pack count you want, because that decides the structure before anything else.

Board, print and finishing choices

Boxes are produced in kraft, cardboard and bux board, with recyclable and eco material options available. Printing is full colour across whichever panels you choose. Lamination, foiling and embossing are quoted per job. Any material or lining requirement specific to your product should be written into the enquiry so it is addressed against your specification rather than assumed.

What a food packaging enquiry needs

• Product size: the finished item measured in millimetres, plus how many go in a pack.
• Format: cake box, gable box, window carton, sleeve and tray or beverage multipack.
• Board and finish: kraft or cardboard, and whether you want lamination or foiling.
• Quantity and artwork: the run you are planning and print ready files if you have them.
