Custom Food Boxes

Custom Food Boxes Made for Your Restaurant or Food Brand

Custom food boxes do two jobs at once: they keep food secure on the way to your customer, and they put your brand in front of everyone who sees the order. Whether you run a local cafe, a bakery, a food truck, a meal-prep service or a packaged food brand, Packwhole makes food boxes to your exact size, style and design.

Why Use Custom Food Boxes?

• Branding: your logo, colors and message printed on every box make your food instantly recognizable.
• Durability: the right board and structure help boxes handle takeout, delivery and stacking without collapsing.
• The right fit: boxes sized to your menu items mean less movement, less mess and a better presentation when the box is opened.
• Sustainability: kraft and recyclable paperboard options suit brands that want to cut down on plastic.

Types of Custom Food Boxes

Different foods need different structures. These are the styles our customers order most:

• Takeout and delivery boxes: easy-to-carry boxes for meals, sides and combos.
• Burger boxes: hinged clamshell boxes that hold their shape. See custom burger boxes.
• Pizza boxes: corrugated boxes that stack well and keep pizza flat. See custom pizza boxes.
• Bakery boxes: for cupcakes, cookies and pastries, with optional windows and inserts. See cupcake boxes and cookie boxes.
• Gable boxes: boxes with a built-in handle for snacks, gift treats and catering. See custom gable boxes.
• Pillow boxes: a fun, curved shape for small sweets and party favors. See custom pillow boxes.
• Tray boxes: open or lidded trays for catering spreads and sharing platters.
• Frozen food boxes: cartons for frozen meals and ready-to-heat products sold in stores.
• Window boxes: a die-cut window lets customers see the food before they buy. See custom window boxes.

Materials and Finishes

• Paperboard: smooth and bright for sharp full-color printing, ideal for bakery and light food items.
• Kraft board: a natural brown look for organic, rustic and eco-minded brands.
• Corrugated board: extra strength for pizza, heavy meals and stacked delivery orders.

You can print in full color (CMYK) or brand-matched Pantone colors, inside and outside, and add finishes such as matte or gloss lamination, spot UV, foil stamping, embossing, windows and custom inserts. If your food has specific needs, such as grease, heat or moisture, tell us when you request a quote and our team will advise on the right board and coating.
