Tart Boxes

Custom Tart Boxes

A tart is a small open faced pastry with a sweet or savory filling. Fruit tarts, custard tarts, lemon tarts, and chocolate tarts all share a delicate crust and a soft filling that needs careful packaging. Custom Boxes Base USA prints tart boxes for craft bakeries, French pastry shops, and dessert brands across the United States who want their tarts to arrive at the buyer table with the crust crisp, the filling firm, and the topping in perfect place.

Box Sizes For Single And Multi Tart Packs

Tart boxes come in many sizes. A single mini tart needs a small flat box with a snug round cavity. A four pack of mini tarts needs a wider tray with cut outs for each tart. A large nine inch tart needs a square or round box with a flat board base. A mix pack of tart flavors needs a divider tray with a window cut so the buyer can see each tart through the box before they pay.

Tall Walls To Protect The Topping

A tart has a soft topping that can smudge if the box lid sits low. We design every tart box with tall side walls and a raised lid that gives clear space above the topping. The fruit, the whipped cream, or the chocolate drizzle never touches the inside of the lid during transport. This kind of design keeps the tart looking fresh and bakery ready from the moment it leaves the shop counter to the moment the buyer opens the box at home.

Flat Board Base For Crust Support

A tart has a delicate crust that can crack if the box base flexes during transport. We add a flat board base inside every tart box. The board is made from rigid food safe card that holds the crust flat without bend. The board can be plain white, kraft brown, or printed with the brand mark. The board lifts out of the box for easy serving at the dinner table once the tart reaches the buyer home from the bakery.

Window Cuts For Tart Display

Many bakeries display tarts through clear box windows on the counter to show off the bright fruit or chocolate topping. We die cut a window in a circle, square, or custom shape and seal it with food safe clear PET film. The window lets buyers see the tart color and the topping design before they pay. The film sits flush with the box surface so the box still stacks neatly in a glass display case at the bakery counter during the day.

Print Style For Pastry Brands

Pastry brands lean to warm classic color palettes. Think soft cream, kraft brown, warm gold, and bright fruit tones that match the topping. We print full color CMYK with a spot Pantone for the brand mark. Matte lamination gives a soft craft finish. Foil stamping in warm gold or copper on the brand mark and embossing on the brand name add a premium edge that fits French style pastry shops and craft American dessert brands alike on the shelf.

Grease Resistant Coating

Tarts often have a rich butter crust that releases oil over time. We add a grease resistant coating on the inside surface of every tart box. The coating stops oil from soaking through the wall and weakening the box during a long delivery from bakery to buyer. The coating also keeps the box clean if the buyer stores the tart in the fridge for a few days before slicing and serving it to family or guests at the table.

Turnaround Time And Rush Orders

Standard turnaround for tart boxes is seven to ten business days from artwork sign off to shipment. Rush production in five business days is on offer for tight launch dates and seasonal holiday rushes. Our plant runs two shifts which lets us hit short timelines without a cut in quality. Brands that plan ahead also get small discounts for off peak production windows that fit between Valentine, Easter, and Christmas holiday seasons across the bakery year cycle.
