FAQs

What are the exact internal dimensions of the box?

The box has approximate external dimensions of L 16" x W 14" x D 6". The internal dimensions will be slightly smaller due to the thickness of the card material.

Can this box be used for cupcakes?

This box is designed for larger oblong cakes and is not ideal for cupcakes, which would require a specialized insert or a different type of box.

Is the PVC window removable?

No, the PVC window is integrated into the lid and is not designed to be removed.

Does the box come assembled?

No, the boxes ship flat and require simple assembly by folding and tucking the sides.

Can I write on the box?

Yes, the white card surface is suitable for writing on with most pens or markers, allowing you to add personal messages or labels.

Is the box food-safe?

The box is made from food-grade card material. However, it is recommended to place cakes on a cake board or parchment paper within the box, as direct contact with the cardboard is not advised for all baked goods.

Troubleshooting

Box corners don't stay tucked in.

Ensure the cardboard folds are creased firmly. You can gently reinforce the tucked corners with a small piece of clear tape on the inside if needed for extra security.

PVC window is smudged or cloudy.

Gently wipe the inside and outside of the PVC window with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using liquids that could seep into the cardboard.

Cake seems too tall for the box.

The box has a depth of 6 inches. If your cake, including frosting or decorations, exceeds this height, this box may not be suitable. Consider a taller box if available.

  • Easy to assemble and use.

Cons

  • Specific oblong shape might not be suitable for all cake designs.
  • PVC window may be prone to fogging in humid conditions.
  • Cardboard may absorb moisture if exposed to wet environments.
  • Requires careful handling to prevent creasing or damage to the box itself.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boxes ship flat and require simple assembly. Unfold the base and tuck in the sides to form its shape. Similarly, unfold the lid, ensuring the PVC window is clean and oriented correctly, and place it over the base. No tools or adhesive are required for basic assembly.

Compatibility: This box is designed for oblong cakes with dimensions up to approximately 16 inches long, 14 inches wide, and 6 inches tall. It is not recommended for round cakes or cakes exceeding these dimensions. Ensure your cake has cooled completely before placing it in the box to prevent condensation.

Care: Store the boxes in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain their structural integrity. Wipe the PVC window gently with a soft, dry cloth if smudges occur. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this can damage the card material and the window.
