Materials, print, and finish options
Frosting is the whole point and the most fragile part, so we build tall-wall boxes with food-safe paperboard inserts in 1, 2, 4, 6, or 12-count layouts that grip each cup and keep the lid off the swirl. Food-safe window film lets the decoration show. FDA food-safe inks keep contact surfaces compliant, and grease-resistant coating protects against buttercream and oil seepage.
Available finishes include:
- Lamination: Gloss, matte, soft-touch, or velvet finish for a premium hand-feel.
- Foil stamping: Gold, silver, copper, or custom foil colors for high-visibility brand marks.
- Embossing & debossing: Tactile raised or recessed surface effects on logo or key artwork.
- Spot UV: Selective gloss coating that creates contrast against matte areas.
- Eco-friendly options: Recycled kraft, FSC-certified stocks, water-based inks, recyclable rigid constructions.
- Compliance: FDA food-safe inks; certified child-resistant constructions for CBD/cannabis where required.
