Pastry & tart boxes (height up to 10 cm)

Pastry and tart boxes up to 10 cm high are ideal for tarts, quiches, cream slices, cake slices, biscuits and small pastries. In a flat box your bakes stay in place without sliding and look lovely when presented. Here you will find square boxes from 16 x 16 cm to 35 x 35 cm, with or without a window, plus matching separators for slices and cake portions.

Ideas: what flat boxes are good for

Apple tart for a family lunch, lemon tart for brunch, fruit tartlets for afternoon tea or an assortment of cream slices for your colleagues: flat boxes are the all-rounders of pastry packaging. Linzer torte, quiche, cheesecake without tall decoration or a dozen biscuits are also easy to transport in them. For patisseries, farm shops and markets they are the practical way to hand individual slices over the counter.

With a cake box with window, your bake catches the eye before it is even opened. The cake box with hearts and window, 19 x 19 x 9 cm, suits Valentine's Day, Mother's Day or a wedding anniversary, while the Pure cake box, 21 x 21 x 9 cm, impresses with its clean look.

How to: separators and the right height

To stop cream slices and cake slices sticking together, there are matching separators. This way you can transport several portions neatly in one box. For the height, the box should be 2 to 3 cm taller than the bake. A tart 3 cm high fits into a 5 cm box; a slice of cake or a pastry topped with cream needs more like 8 to 10 cm. If your cake is taller, you will find the right box among the classic cake boxes 11 to 16 cm high.

• For the base, allow 3 to 4 cm more than the diameter of the tart.
• Let tarts cool completely before packing, otherwise condensation forms and the pastry goes soft.
• Stand cake slices upright and close together, with a separator between each one.
• Always carry the box level and place it flat in the car.

Combinations for home bakers and professionals

Many customers combine several sizes: a large Morgane box for the whole tart and smaller window boxes for individual slices. You can also give biscuits in our cookie and pastry tins, macarons in the macaron boxes and cupcakes in the cupcake boxes. If you sell pastries regularly, the separators in packs of 1000 are good value.

What to look for when buying pastry and tart boxes

First decide whether you are packing a whole tart or individual slices. For a whole tart the base matters, for slices the height. A window is worthwhile if the bake is sold or given as a gift and should look its best. White looks fresh and neutral, white and gold festive, kraft natural. For cream pastries, the box should leave enough room above so nothing sticks to the lid. And if you bake regularly, keep two or three standard sizes in stock.
