About Custom Pie Boxes
Packaging that carries a filled pie without a mess
A pie box is a load-bearing bakery format. The carton has to carry a filled pie of 2 to 4 pounds, hold shape while a customer walks it to a car or a customer picks it up from a holiday counter, resist the grease of a butter crust, and let the fruit or meringue top do the selling through a window. We print food-safe pie boxes for US bakeries, pie shops, and holiday-gift programs, start runs at 100 units with no setup, plate, or die charges, and include free 3D mockups, free physical samples on request, and free US shipping.
Pie box formats
- Auto-lock bottom pie cartons — the standard weight-bearing box for whole pies, sized to 8, 9, or 10-inch tins.
- Snap-lock (1-2-3) bottom cartons — a quick-assemble box for high-volume bakery counters.
- Window pie boxes — a die-cut window on the lid so customers see the top of the pie at the counter.
- Half-pie and slice cartons — smaller cartons for grab-and-go slice programs and half-pie holiday orders.
- Kraft pie boxes — natural, artisan look for farmers-market vendors and small-batch bakeries.
Food-safety and grease resistance
Because pie is high-fat and often served warm, we spec food-safe SBS or clay-coated kraft with a grease-resistant coating and low-migration inks. For pies that sit in the box while still warm, we add a moisture-resistant liner so condensation does not soften the board. Nutrition facts, allergen callouts, net weight, batch codes, and barcodes are laid out as part of free dieline support. US B2B customers remain responsible for final FDA label compliance on finished SKUs.
Holiday, DTC, and seasonal programs
Pie is a seasonal category, and Thanksgiving and holiday windows carry most of the year's volume. We run seasonal batches on 7-10 business day standard turnaround and 3-5 day rush, and can drop-ship a large order to multiple US addresses for corporate holiday programs.

Why US brands choose us for custom pie boxes
Custom Box Printing manufactures custom pie boxes from our US production facility, with free standard shipping anywhere in the contiguous United States and a 7–10 business day turnaround. We've printed custom pie boxes for solo founders launching their first product line, growing direct-to-consumer brands placing 5,000-unit runs, and established retail brands with 50,000+ unit production schedules — and we treat all three the same: low MOQs (100-unit runs), free design support, no setup or die-plate charges, and a 3D digital mockup before anything goes to press.
Every custom pie boxes order includes free in-house dieline and artwork support — our US-based designers will polish your existing files, or build a custom dieline from scratch to fit your exact product dimensions. We send you a 3D mockup to confirm look and proportions before production. For color-critical work, request a physical sample free — let’s talk about a customized sample so you can confirm the look before a full run.

Materials, print, and finish options
Pie is a moist, warm, oily bakery format, so material spec matters. We print pie boxes on food-safe SBS or clay-coated kraft with a grease-resistant coating and low-migration inks, and add a moisture-resistant liner where a still-warm pie will sit in the box. Auto-lock and snap-lock bottoms are the standard for pie boxes because they carry the weight of a filled pie without collapsing. Window die-cuts let the fruit or meringue top do the selling at a bakery counter.
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.
