Overview

Gourmet Food Gift Boxes

Mixed contents in one box — the insert is what turns a collection into a curation.

Jars, packets and bottles of different geometries held in fixed positions. Arranged, they read as chosen; loose, the same items read as inventory.

✦ Mix and match across all three — we'll build your exact combination.

What We Make

The full kit of capabilities.

Fitted Insert Engineering
Cavities built around your actual product mix.
Moulded Pulp Cradles
Shock absorption for glass jars and bottles.
Reinforced Bases
Built for the weight of glass and liquid.
Lid Retention
Because people lift hampers by the lid.
Premium Finishes
Soft-touch, foil, emboss and matte lamination.
Undated Box with Dated Sleeve
Unsold stock carries into next season.
Seasonal Capacity Planning
Booked ahead of the peak rather than during it.
Inside Printing
Interior revealed at the moment of opening.
Loose-Packed Mixed Contents
Heavy items move and fragile ones break. Mixed food gifts need a fitted insert — it is not an upgrade, it is the thing that makes the product work.
Late Seasonal Ordering
Capacity tightens sharply before seasonal peaks and the date does not move. Complex inserts need proofing time built in.

Sizing & dieline.

Every Gourmet Food Gift Boxes is cut to a dieline built around your product — not pulled off a shelf. Send us the length, width and height of the item (or the item itself) and we return a measured dieline, free, before you commit to anything.

How to measure
01
Measure the product

Length, width and height of the item itself, at its widest points — not the box you happen to use today.

02
Add clearance

Allow 2–4 mm on each axis for a snug fit, and more if you are adding foam, a pillow insert or tissue.

03
Give us the order

We quote as Length × Width × Height. Tell us whether you are working in millimetres or inches and we match it.

What It Costs

Pricing & minimums.

Gourmet Food Gift Boxes is priced per specification rather than from a fixed list — the same box in two different finishes can land at very different numbers. Below is what actually moves the price, so you can shape the spec before you request a quote.

What moves the price
Quantity

The single biggest lever. Unit cost falls sharply as volume rises, because setup and tooling spread across more pieces.

Material and thickness

Board weight and stock choice change both the raw material cost and the shipping weight of the finished run.

Finishing

Foil, spot UV, embossing and soft-touch each add a pass on press. One or two lift the box; five compound the cost.

Print coverage

Full-bleed print inside and out costs more than a one-sided design on natural stock.

Inserts and hardware

Foam, moulded pulp, velvet pillows, magnets and ribbon are priced per piece on top of the box itself.

Timeline

Standard production is the base rate. Rush moves you up the production queue and carries a surcharge.

— Frequently Asked Questions —

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about Gourmet Food Gift Boxes.

A fitted insert, and for mixed food gifts it is not optional.

The difficulty with hampers is that the contents have nothing in common. A glass jar, a bottle of oil, a bag of coffee and a packet of biscuits have completely different weights, shapes and fragilities. Packed loose, the heavy items move during transit and the fragile ones lose.

An insert gives each item its own cavity so nothing shifts relative to anything else. Two constructions are common:

  • Die-cut board inserts — cost-effective, precise, good for regular shapes.
  • Moulded pulp cradles — better shock absorption, particularly for glass bottles and jars.

Send us the actual items, or their exact dimensions and weights, and we will design the cavity layout around them. This is where most of the engineering in a gift box actually sits, and it is worth spending the time on.
