Hello Doctor,

I run a small baking business and have recently started making delicious meringues. My shop mainly supplies to other businesses, so the products are shipped in large quantities. I need a way to package them in batches of 10–12 that looks professional and keeps these delicate pastries safe. After that, I also need to send them in smaller batches of five.

Do you still sell cupcake boxes? I can't seem to find them anymore. Are there any alternatives? Also, I need a larger box that can hold several of these smaller boxes for shipping.

Many Thanks, Sabrina

Hi Sabrina,

A great and affordable option for packaging cakes and pastries is using a white postal box. These boxes are very popular among bakers and confectioners. You can line them with acid-free tissue paper for an extra touch of elegance. Our medium-sized parcel box should fit up to 12 meringues comfortably. Plus, they stack well and can be packed in groups of six inside a 610 x 610 x 610 double-wall box for bulk shipping.

Thanks, The Packaging Doctor
