When it comes to custom packaging, LeKAC was born and bread for this! Any bakery owner will know how important packaging is for baked goods. Most items will need a secure closure – but you can get that from any generic packaging product, right? So why should you opt for custom packaging when it comes to your bakery and/or cafe?
Consumers eat with their eyes first – and that extends to packaging. Attractive packaging lures potential customers in to your store to try your goods. Furthermore, custom packaging can indicate if your business is premium or not. Let your packaging do the talking for you and read more to see what type of packaging the LeKAC Pack can provide to you!
Bakery Packaging with You in Mind
This is by far our largest catalogue to date so get ready! When our team started to work on this catalogue (after helping our bakery and cafe clients for years), we couldn’t stop thinking of products that could apply! From boxes, to bags, to tins – we’ve got it all.
Not only are we able to provide you with industry standard dimensions, you can customise any of the products below to your exact needs.
Drawer Boxes
Made with 400g kraft paper, our drawer boxes are made specifically for delicious macarons. They’re lightweight and cost-effective, and you can even add a PET window to give your patrons a glimpse of what they are about to consume! We have two standard sizes available:
- 6 piece
- 12 piece
Our pricing is inclusive of a choice between a white or brown base, full colour print and a matte or glossy laminated finish. Custom inserts are also available – use as an opportunity for further branding or just extra safety!
Cake Boxes
When I tell you that our cake boxes are one of our most popular options, I’m not lying! Whenever I’m in our showroom (shameless plug – come visit us in Markham or Montreal!) I can’t stop staring at the beautiful cake boxes on display. We have 3 options with multiple shapes! The limit literally does not exist when it comes to these boxes:
- Paper – choose from square, dome or gable cake boxes with a fold over handle design to ensure your cake doesn’t fall during transport.
- Window – the addition of a PET window seems small, but it has such a big impact! Utilise well-placed diecut shapes or corner windows to add a unique look to your cake box.
- Transparent – show off your baked goods to their absolute fullest potential with transparent boxes and a solid base. The transparent lid keeps your goods fresh, and you can add a custom ribbon with your logo on it.
Bakery Boxes
Bakery boxes are a perfect one-piece folding carton, often used for Korean macarons, cookies and doughnuts. There are minimal flaps so there’s no need to worry about your packaging compromising the look of your baked goods!
Pricing for our bakery boxes include your choice of 400g white or brown kraft box base, full colour print and glossy or matte lamination. You can also opt for no finishing to give a more natural and rustic look.
Cupcake Boxes
Cupcakes are difficult to carry around – when they’re iced, they can get super messy and collide with each other if they’re even moved a fraction of an inch. Enter LeKAC’s cupcake boxes – the perfect solution to this inconvenience!
These boxes are made from cardboard paper and feature diecut handles and a gable-style closure. PET windows let you show off your unique designs and added paper inserts with thumb spaces keep them looking flawless.
Another issue with cupcake boxes are that they are typically bulky and hard to store. Due to their design, these boxes fold flat and have an auto-close bottom for easy assembly.
Pastry Boxes
Another popular box option for our clients are our pastry boxes. Perfect for croissants and other pastries (hence the name of this product), these boxes feature only outer flaps with multiple add-ons available upon request.
Our pastry boxes are made with 350g white paperboard and you can even choose a collapsible structure for easy storage. The design options are limitless with add-ons such as gold foil, PET windows, brown kraft base, spot UV, and so much more.
Pie and Cake Slice Boxes
If you’re in the business of selling singular slices, these are a must-have. Our pie and cake slice boxes are a recent addition to our product line up, allowing you to showcase single segments in a pretty package.
Made with 350g paperboard, pricing for these boxes include a choice of brown or white base, and a full colour design print. Add on a PET window or foil logos for a unique high-end look.
Cookie Tins
A year-round classic, cookie tins are iconic! When they’re not filled with sewing supplies, these tins protect delicious cookies from any harm.
Customise your tins with a silver or gold base, or even a full colour print design. Metal tins are the perfect way to gift delectable goodies, so make sure your brand is on them to widen your client reach.
Rigid Boxes
A luxurious and long lasting option, our rigid boxes create a memorable unboxing experience for the recipient. There are unlimited options for these boxes, and can be used across all industries, but add a special touch to baked goods. We have two main structures available:
- base and lid – two separate pieces that fit snugly together
- one piece – a one-piece structure with a magnetic closure and hinge lid that folds in flat for easy storage and shipping!
Rigid boxes are known for their high end gifting potential, and can be used with gift baskets as well! Use custom inserts (for example, foam, paper or velvet) to really drive home the point you care.
Add additional design options such as foil logos/lettering, spot UV, embossing or foil embossing.
Paper Bags
When we say we got options for paper bags, we mean we got options. Choose from 4 options depending on what you need:
- Bread Bags – brown or white kraft paper base with optional wax coating add-on.
- Lunch Bags – stand-up pouches with a wire closure to keep goods fresh
- Kraft Paper Handle Bags (120g) – recyclable paper with a twisted paper (included in pricing) or flat paper handle (additional cost)
- White Cardboard Handle Bags (210g) – a premium look with a rope, grosgrain or ribbon handle (included in pricing)
No matter what paper bag option you choose, you can bet your clients will be impressed with the quality and design that our designs can help you come up with!
Reusable Bags
We’ve held a special place in our hearts for the reusable bag ever since the conception of LeKAC. Even better, we’ve extended our range of reusable bags from the one that started it all. Our PP non-woven bags are perfect for bakeries and cafes as they’re easy to clean and recyclable once they reach the end of their lifespan.
Our reusable bags are cost-effective, have different printing options and offer multiple finishing options! Opt for contrast stitching to really make your design pop and bring attention to your brand.
Cups
Custom cups have taken off recently in the packaging industry! We have two main materials, but unlimited design potential:
- Paper – choose from white or brown kraft paper with a heatproof double wall to keep beverages warm and interior lamination to avoid spillage (perfect for hot drinks)
- Plastic – choose from a clear or frosted look with a flat or domed lid (ideal for cold beverages)
No matter which cup you choose, add on a custom kraft paper sleeve or full colour print for optimal branding.
Drink Carriers
Speaking of cups, juggling more than two cups is no easy task. Make your customer’s life easier with custom drink carriers! Choose between a 2 or 4 cup carrier with an auto-close bottom for quick assembly.
Our drink carriers are made with an option of paperboard or corrugated material. Opt for a simple logo placement or a full colour design to draw attention and get people asking where they came from!
Accessories
No packaging suite is complete without some accessories! Talk with our custom packaging specialists to find out more details about what accessories would suit a bakery or cafe. Here are some suggestions:
- Business Cards
- Paper Inserts
- Ribbons
- Paper Sleeves
- Parchment or Wax Paper
