With so many different types of cake boxes to choose from, selecting the one which is best suited to your homemade cake can sometimes be a challenge. You need to ensure the cake box is not only the correct size but also sturdy enough to protect, store and transport the cake you have made. Don’t worry though because after reading this article you will know exactly what type of cake boxes you should use for the cakes you make. 

Cake Box Buying Tips

  • ▶We recommend using a cake board and a cake box to maximise rigidity and strength to help protect, transport, and manoeuvre your cake safely.

 

  • ▶Buy a cake box which is the same size as the cake board you are using, which should be larger than the cake itself.  There’s less risk of slippage if your board is the same size as your box.

 

  • ▶If your cake is different shape, for example heart shaped, then you should measure the widest section of the cake board.

 

  • ▶Also consider the height of your cake. Tall or multitiered cakes for example will require tall cake boxes or stacked cake boxes, or you can consider cake box extensions.

 

  • ▶If you need to move a multi-tiered cake around.

 

  • ▶If you don’t wish to buy your cake box separately you can also acquire cake board and cake box combo packs for a perfect fit.

 

  • ▶If you make a lot of cakes, multipack boxes present good value and keep you stocked up.
