Is there a minimum order for custom fudge boxes?

No. There is no minimum order. A market vendor can order a few boxes to test a flavor line, and a seasonal producer can order thousands for the holidays. The price-beat guarantee applies at any quantity.

What size box holds a pound of fudge?

It depends on how you cut it. Lay out one pound of your own pieces in the layout you want, measure the footprint and height, and add about 1/8 inch per side. Send those numbers and TBPB draws the box around your actual portion.

Will fudge leave oil marks on the box?

It can, especially in warm rooms. Most makers wrap the fudge in wax paper or butter paper first so the board never touches it. Tight seams and a coated inner surface help. Tell us about your recipe and we will suggest a construction.

Should I add a window to a fudge box?

A window helps sell at a counter because buyers see the texture and toppings. It matters less if you sell online or in gift sets. If you add one, use a food-appropriate film and plan the layout so the best piece faces up.

Is the packaging food safe?

TBPB prints the artwork you supply and does not certify food-contact suitability. Confirm what your board, coating and liner need with your own regulatory adviser, and use a wrap or liner between the fudge and the board.

Can I print different flavors on different boxes?

Yes. Each design is its own print setup, so group flavors into a few versions, or use one box with a label or sticker per flavor. Tell us how many versions you need when requesting the quote.

Why Choose Custom Fudge Boxes for Your Sweet Treats?

Size the box to a real portion, not a guess. Lay out a half pound or one pound of your own fudge, measure the footprint and height, and allow about 1/8 inch per side. Pick kraft for a handmade look or white board for full-colour photography, and add a window if the box will sell at a counter. For the inside, wrap pieces in wax or butter paper and use a divider card if flavors mix. You remain responsible for labels and food-contact checks.

Custom Fudge Boxes, No Minimum Order

Custom fudge boxes are shallow, firm cartons cut to the size of your slab, squares or gift assortment, printed with your branding and ready for a candy counter, a craft fair table or a shipping carton. TBPB makes them with no minimum order, and if you bring a written quote for the same specs, we beat it.

What a fudge box has to survive

Fudge is dense, slightly oily and heavy for its volume. A thin box bows under a pound of it, and any seam that gaps lets the butter fat mark the board. The practical answer is a box with a flat, supported base, tight corners and a lid or flap that closes firmly. Most fudge makers also wrap the pieces in wax paper or a butter paper sheet first, so the board never touches the fudge directly.

Picking a style

A two-piece box with a lid is the classic gift format and gives you lots of print area on the top. A tuck-top carton is simpler and quicker to pack at a market stall. A box with a window lets buyers see the swirls and nut toppings, which sells more fudge at a counter than any printed photo will. If you add a window, plan to seal it with a food-appropriate film and place the pieces so the best-looking cut faces up.

Sizing by weight and piece count

Fudge is normally sold by weight, so the box needs to match a standard portion. Half-pound and one-pound portions are the most common, but measure your own: lay out the pieces as you want them to sit, record the footprint and height, then add about 1/8 inch per side. Square pieces in two layers need a deeper box than a single layer slab, and a divider card keeps flavors from touching if you mix them.

Board and print

Kraft paperboard gives the handmade, small-batch look that many fudge brands lean on, and it prints well with one or two spot colours. White paperboard shows full-colour photography and bright flavor labels more cleanly. Paperboard in the 16 to 24 pt range is typical for this size. For finishes, matte aqueous coating resists fingerprints, and a foil logo on the lid dresses up a holiday box without adding bulk.

TBPB prints the artwork you supply. Ingredients, allergen statements and weight declarations are your responsibility, and food-contact suitability should be confirmed with your own regulatory adviser, since we do not certify it.

Shipping and storage

Fudge does not like heat, so a box that sits in a delivery van needs more than good board. Pack the closed box into a snug shipper with no empty space, and avoid stacking heavy cartons on top. For local sales, shallow boxes stack neatly on a display table and keep the labels visible from the front.

Style: lidded two-piece, tuck-top or window carton
Board: kraft or white paperboard, roughly 16 to 24 pt
Window: optional, with film
Inserts: dividers or liner paper for mixed flavors
Print: CMYK or Pantone, outside and inside
Quantity: no minimum order

Related packaging for sweets

For fudge sold alongside other treats, kraft window boxes are a close sibling with a similar look. A wrap of butter paper keeps the fudge off the board. Smaller truffles and caramels suit bonbon boxes better, and candy display boxes work for counter sales. The wider custom food boxes range has more formats.

Send the portion weight, the piece layout and the quantity, even if it is one box, and TBPB will draw the dieline and quote it.
