Sweet and Chocolate Boxes

Keeping Every Piece in Place

Chocolates and sweets are small, and small things move. A truffle that rolls into its neighbour arrives scuffed, and a bar that slides inside a loose wrap can snap in transit. The most important part of a sweet box is often the part the customer barely notices: the insert, divider or tray that holds each piece in its own spot.

We cut cavity trays to the shape and size of your chocolates, whether round, square, heart shaped or irregular. For mixed selections, a chocolate box with card dividers keeps each flavour separate and makes the box look generous when the lid comes off. Dividers can be printed with flavour names to save on a separate menu card.

Bars, Bonbons and Gift Selections

Chocolate bars usually travel in a slim sleeve or a tuck box sized to the bar, with room for the foil or inner wrap. Bonbons and truffles suit square or rectangular rigid boxes with a lift-off lid, which feel substantial in the hand and suit gifting. Pyramid and heart-shaped boxes add a little theatre for special occasions.

For premium ranges, a rigid box with a printed wrap and a cavity tray gives the feel of a shop-bought gift. Smaller makers often start with a folding carton and move up to rigid boxes for their top line. If you want the feel of a luxury box without the cost, our printed chocolate gift boxes can be made in thick folding board with a soft-touch finish.

Pick and Mix, Favours and Party Sweets

Sweet shops and party planners need quick, cheerful packaging. Pick and mix boxes and cones are easy to fill at a counter, while favour boxes and cones hold a handful of sweets for weddings, birthdays and corporate events. Windowed sweet boxes let colourful contents do the selling.

Candy floss, toffee apples and lollipops each need their own shapes. Tall boxes protect spun sugar from being crushed, and lollipop cartons hold sticks upright. Bright prints suit these products, and a printed pick and mix box with your shop name turns every bag of sweets into a small advertisement on the walk home.

Materials, Print and Finishing

Folding boxes are made from white or kraft board, printed in one ink or full colour. Rigid boxes are wrapped in printed or coloured paper over a thick board core, with options for foil, embossing and a soft-touch finish. Glassine or paper liners can sit between tray and sweets, and where chocolate touches the card directly we specify food-contact grade board in your custom quote.

Chocolate is sensitive to heat, so we suggest planning dispatch with the weather in mind and using an insulated outer for postal orders in warm spells. If your sweets are sold in a shop, a sweet box with a window lets customers see the colours without opening anything, which helps on a busy shelf.
