Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: What size cake box do I need for my cake?

    A: Always match the size of your cake box to the dimensions of your cake board rather than the cake itself. If you are baking an 8-inch cake, it will typically sit on a 10-inch cake board to leave clearance for frostings, sugar paste, and decorative edges. You should therefore choose a 10-inch square cake box. Sizing your box to the board keeps the cake stationary during transit and prevents the interior walls from touching your frosting.

  • Q: How do I safely transport tall or multi-tiered cakes?

    A: For tiered celebration cakes or tall layered bakes, opt for a dedicated tall cake box or an extra strong corrugated cardboard cake box. Many tall designs feature drop-down side panels so you can slide heavy cakes directly into the box from the front, removing the risk of clipping your decorations when lowering a cake from the top. For standard boxes, modular cake box extension corners can also be added to elevate the lid clearance.

  • Q: Are your cardboard cake boxes recyclable?

    A: All our cake boxes are constructed from robust, food-grade cardboard. Our plain cardboard cake boxes (without plastic windows) are fully recyclable in standard UK paper and board recycling streams. For our windowed cake boxes, the clear plastic film can be quickly peeled away.

  • Q: Do your cake boxes come flat-packed?

    A: Yes, all our cardboard cake boxes arrive flat-packed to maximize your storage space. They feature quick pop-up designs and simple fold-and-lock tabs for rapid, tool-free assembly during busy bake days.

  • Q: I need a cake box for a children's birthday cake.

    A: Using a Tall Cake Box makes transporting birthday cakes much easier. The extra height of a tall cake box allows you to decorate the cake with toppers and candles before the party making sure there's one less thing to worry about when you get there! A tall windowed cake box is even better, this lets everyone see and admire the cake too.
