A suitable Yule log box makes sure your Christmas log arrives at your hosts' as beautiful as it was when it left your kitchen. Whether you take it to a family celebration, give it as a gift or sell it in your bakery, a sturdy box protects the glaze, decoration and shape while making a festive impression. In this category you will find long log boxes with Christmas motifs, plain white and kraft boxes, rectangular cake boxes in several sizes, sets with a cake board and a rectangular cool bag for transport. Whatever your log, loaf cake or rectangular cake, the right packaging is here.
Festive log boxes with Christmas motifs
If you want to give your Yule log as a gift, choose a box that builds anticipation from the outside. The Polar «Joyeuses fêtes» log box comes in 30 x 10.5 x H. 11.5 cm and 25 x 10.5 x H. 11.5 cm, so it suits classic log moulds. The red «Merry Christmas» log box brings bold festive colour to the table, while the Holly log box charms with its wintry motif. These boxes are ideal for gifts, for selling at Christmas markets or for the counter of a confectionery shop.
Plain boxes for loaf cakes and logs
Not every log needs a Christmas motif. For a timeless look, choose the white cake box 25 x 10 x 8.5 cm, the box for cake/log or the cake/log box set of 2. The kraft boxes for Christmas logs with handles in 25 x 11 cm are especially practical if you carry your log on foot or by train. Their natural look is easy to dress up with a ribbon, a sprig of fir or a label. All year round, you can also use them for loaf cakes, Swiss rolls and long desserts.
Rectangular cake boxes for larger desserts
For larger logs, several logs side by side or rectangular festive cakes, you will find rectangular cake boxes in several sizes: 30.5 x 16 x 10 cm, 33 x 22.5 x 15 cm, 35.5 x 25 x 15 cm and 38 x 27.5 x 15 cm. The rectangular cake box with base 33 x 22 x 15 cm, the rectangular cake box with cake board 35 x 25 x 15 cm and the cake box + cake board set give you the right base straight away. Your dessert stays stable and is easy to lift out of the box.
Tips for safe transport
- Measure your log including decorations and choose a box with a little headroom so toppers and figures don't touch the lid.
- Place the log on a firm board before putting it in the box so it is easier to lift out.
- Chill the log thoroughly before transport so mousse and glaze stay stable.
- For longer journeys or warm cars, the rectangular cool bag is ideal.
- Always carry the box flat, for example in the footwell of the car rather than on the seat.
Ideas for gifts and sales
- Personal gift: a homemade log in the Polar «Joyeuses fêtes» box with a handwritten card.
- For the festive meal: the kraft box with handles and a red ribbon for the trip to the family.
- For confectioners and bakeries: uniform boxes in white or with a Christmas motif for a professional look at the counter.
- Log duo: with the cake/log box set of 2 you can give two different flavours.
Combinations with boards and decorations
A log looks best in its box when it sits on a suitable base. Combine the box with a matching log board so the log stands securely and is elegantly presented. A topper or chocolate decoration on the log and a ribbon around the box complete the look. That way, even opening the box becomes a festive moment.
What to look for when buying a log box
Dimensions are key: the length, width and height of your log determine the right box. A 25 cm log fits a box 25 cm long, while for a 30 cm log you should choose the larger size. Also consider whether the box should look Christmassy or be used after the holidays too. If you sell logs, it is worth keeping several boxes of the same size in stock.
