Cupcake boxes are the nicest way to transport cupcakes and muffins safely and give them as a heartfelt gift, because every bite of these little cakes brings joy and happiness. At Cakelicious we know how important it is to present these treats with care. Whether you run a bakery, a café or a catering business, or simply love baking to surprise your loved ones, here you will find boxes for 1, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 cupcakes, mini cupcake boxes, white boxes, natural kraft boxes, clear boxes and festive gift boxes. Most models come with an insert that keeps every cupcake in its place. Our cupcake boxes are easy to use and easy to carry, the kraft boxes add a natural touch, and all of them give any occasion an elegant note.
Cupcake boxes for every quantity
The right box depends on how many cupcakes you want to pack and who will receive them:
- Box for one cupcake: sometimes less is more. With the white single cupcake box or the Rosa set of single cupcake boxes you can treat a colleague, a friend or a loved one. Add a pretty ribbon and a little card and the gift is ready, also ideal as an end-of-year present.
- Boxes for 2 and 4: the 2-cupcake box in white or kraft and the 4-cupcake boxes, also in green and pink, are perfect for small gifts and thank-yous.
- Box for 6 cupcakes: do not be fooled by its size. The white 6-cupcake box or the kraft box for 6 cupcakes with insert holds standard cupcakes securely and is an eco-friendly choice for small parties or a family picnic.
- Box for 12 cupcakes: the white 12-cupcake box with insert is the classic for birthdays, school events and the office. Models with a window show off the sweet treasures inside.
- Mini cupcakes: for bite-sized treats there are the 12 and 24 mini cupcake boxes with insert in white or kraft and a set of 4 mini cupcake boxes.
Ideas and inspiration for packing cupcakes
Opening a box of homemade cupcakes is a moment everyone loves, and the right packaging turns it into a small experience. The Swing cupcake and muffin box for 12 and the Swing gift boxes for 6 look playful, while the Rosengarten gift box suits weddings, Mother's Day or a garden party. For children's birthdays, the Party muffin box for 12 cupcakes and the Party gift boxes spread good cheer, and the cupcake boxes with insert in blue and yellow bring colour to the table. During Advent, pack winter cupcakes in the Snowman or Gingerbread Man box for 6 or 12. If the decoration should be visible straight away, choose a clear cupcake box for 6 or 12 muffins.
Tips for packing and transporting
A large cupcake order for a special occasion should not be stressful. With the right boxes you can carry up to 24 cupcakes at once, and they arrive just as perfect as when they left your kitchen:
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before piping the frosting and closing the box.
- Always use the insert: it stops the cupcakes from tipping over or bumping into each other.
- Chill cupcakes with cream or cream cheese frosting briefly so the decoration sets.
- Carry the box level and place it on a flat surface in the car.

What to look for when buying cupcake boxes
Check the size first: standard cupcakes and muffins need a regular box, mini cupcakes a mini cupcake box, otherwise they slide around in the insert. Then think about the look you want. White is timeless and easy to personalise with ribbons and labels, kraft looks natural, clear boxes show off the decoration and themed boxes make unpacking a celebration. If you bake or sell regularly, the white cupcake box with insert (12/24) in a pack of 25 is the best value. For small baked gifts, the mini pastry packaging set is ideal.
