Custom Truffle Boxes

Custom truffle boxes give chocolatiers, lolly shops, confectioners and gift retailers a way to package 2-piece favours and 9-piece boxes that looks professional, protects the product and fits the way your kitchen actually works.

Small cube boxes turn two or four truffles into a premium single-serve gift. 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 truffle boxes are used for

• 2-piece favours: presentation matters as much as protection, so the print needs to be sharp.
• 9-piece boxes: staff need a box that folds up fast when orders stack up.
• 16-piece gift sets: repeat customers notice when the packaging looks consistent every time.
• Wedding bomboniere: the food often travels further than you'd expect, so strength counts.

Planning a range? Our guide, How to Choose the Right Size for Custom Truffle Boxes, goes into more detail.

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.

• Cube box: A compact square box that suits single servings and small gifts.
• Window box: A window shows the product and lets it sell itself on the counter or shelf.
• Drawer box: A tray slides out of an outer sleeve like a matchbox, which makes opening part of the experience.

Sizes

These sizes suit most orders for truffle boxes. Every box can be made to your exact inside dimensions.

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 truffle boxes is heat, humidity and scuffing of glossy surfaces.

• Rigid greyboard: Thick board, usually 1.5 to 2.5 mm, wrapped in printed paper. It is used for premium gift boxes that customers keep and reuse long after the food is gone.
• 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.
• Inserts and trays: Card, board or moulded pulp inserts hold individual pieces in place. Moulded pulp and folded card are the common alternatives to plastic trays.

Food safety

All truffle 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.

Store boxed chocolate below about 20°C and away from strong smells, which chocolate absorbs easily.

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 truffle boxes recycle more easily. We can add the Australasian Recycling Label to your artwork, and certified compostable options are available for some styles.
