Pie Boxes

Pie Boxes are custom-printed paperboard cartons for bakeries, farm stands, and holiday-season sellers that need a tall, stable box to carry whole pies upright and on display. Built from SBS or kraft folding-carton stock, they support a full pie without bowing or tipping.

A printed box does double duty: it protects a fragile pie in transit and turns it into a giftable centerpiece for Thanksgiving, the bake sale, or the catering order. Auto-bottom construction locks the base so the weight of a loaded pie stays put, and a kraft finish reads handmade for farm-stand and artisan sellers. Add a window panel and the lattice or crust becomes the selling point on a crowded shelf.
