Our custom muffin boxes are made to order for cafés, juice bars, bubble tea shops, breweries and wineries across Australia. Whether you pack muffins, friands or muffin gift packs, we build the box around the food, then print it with your brand so every order carries your name out the door.
Inserts hold tall muffin tops away from the lid so they don't get squashed. Every box is made from food-grade board, cut to your dimensions and printed in full colour, spot colours or a simple one-colour logo, with orders from 100 units and delivery to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide and regional areas.
What our muffin boxes are used for
- Muffins: the box has to hold its shape from the counter to the customer's table.
- Friands: presentation matters as much as protection, so the print needs to be sharp.
- Muffin gift packs: staff need a box that folds up fast when orders stack up.
- Café takeaway: repeat customers notice when the packaging looks consistent every time.

Box styles
Choose the structure that suits the food and how your team packs it. We can also combine features or copy a box you already use.
- Window box with insert: A die-cut insert holds each item in position so nothing moves in transit.
- Single muffin box: A practical folding format that balances protection, presentation and packing speed.
Sizes
These sizes suit most orders for muffin boxes. Every box can be made to your exact inside dimensions.

| Custom | Any size to suit your product |
Materials and board
We match the board to the weight of the food and how far it travels. The main thing to plan for with muffin boxes is spills, condensation from cold cups and the weight of liquids.
- Kraft paperboard: Unbleached kraft has a natural brown finish that suits rustic, organic and eco-minded brands. It prints best with bold one- or two-colour artwork, because the brown base shifts lighter colours.
- SBS paperboard: Solid bleached sulphate board gives a bright white surface for sharp, full-colour print. It is the usual choice for retail cartons and bakery boxes, and is commonly specified between 300 and 400 gsm depending on the weight of the food.
- E-flute corrugated board: A thin corrugated board around 1.5 mm thick that adds crush strength and a little insulation while still printing cleanly. It is the standard for pizza boxes, mailers and heavier food orders.
Food safety
All muffin boxes are made from food-grade board. Where food touches the box directly, we recommend a barrier coating or liner, and print is kept on the outside. Our guide to food-safe packaging in Australia explains what the Food Standards Code expects from packaging.
For cold drinks, choose coated board so condensation doesn't weaken the carrier.
Printing and finishes
Print your logo in one colour, match exact brand colours with Pantone, or go full colour with CMYK. Finishes include matte and gloss coatings, spot UV, foil, embossing and windows. Not sure which to choose? Read CMYK vs Pantone for food packaging and our guide to coatings and finishes.
Sustainable options
Kraft and recycled-content board, film-free windows and water-based coatings all help your muffin boxes recycle more easily. We can add the Australasian Recycling Label to your artwork, and certified compostable options are available for some styles.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order for custom muffin boxes?
Most styles start from 100 units. The price per box drops as quantity increases, so larger runs give better value.
How long does production take?
Production is typically 10–15 business days after you approve the proof, plus delivery time to your location in Australia.
Are your muffin boxes food safe?
Yes. We use food-grade board and can add grease or moisture barrier coatings for direct food contact. Print is kept to the outside unless you request otherwise.
Can I get muffin boxes in a custom size?
Yes. Every box is made to order. Send your inside dimensions and we draw a dieline to fit.
Can I see a sample before ordering muffin boxes?
Yes. Plain samples help you test the fit, and printed proofs are supplied before production.
