Folding Cake Box 7x7x3" (250 pcs)

1. Product overview of the Folding Cake Box 7x7x3"

The Lumapack Folding Cake Box 7x7x3" is a compact white paper cake box designed for professional foodservice and bakery use, including counter sales, click-and-collect, and delivery. With a 180mm x 180mm footprint and a 75mm depth, this format is specified for small round and square cakes, dessert portions, and mixed sweet items that need a clean, self-contained box rather than an oversized carton.

This size sits at the smaller end of the Lumapack folding cake box range and is typically used where individual cakes, small celebration cakes, cupcakes in a tray, tarts, or pastry selections need to be packed securely for takeaway or transport. Compared with larger cake boxes, the 7x7x3" keeps the packed product visually centred, reduces void space in transit, and takes up a smaller footprint on shelves, in display cabinets, and in delivery bags.

The box is manufactured from responsibly sourced paperboard and is suitable for direct food contact. The folding-flap construction assembles in seconds without tape or glue, and the plain white exterior can be left unbranded or used as a base for custom printing.

No separate lid is required — the box closes by folding its integrated top panel into place.

2. Typical foodservice uses for the Folding Cake Box 7x7x3"

The 7x7x3" folding cake box is typically selected where a small cake or dessert item needs to be packed for counter service, collection, or delivery.

Common applications include:

• Small celebration and everyday cakes prepared by bakeries and patisseries, where a 6 to 7 inch cake needs a dedicated box that matches its size.
• Cupcake and muffin selections offered by cafés and dessert-led operators, where a small batch is packed together for takeaway or gifting.
• Tarts, cheesecakes, and single desserts produced by restaurants and dessert bars offering off-premise and delivery options.
• Pastry and traybake portions used by coffee shops and bakery-led foodservice, where sweet items are sold individually or in small mixed sets.
• Click-and-collect and delivery orders handled by delivery-first brands and multi-channel bakeries, where a compact, stackable box supports consistent presentation.

This size is particularly suited to bakeries running tiered product ranges, café operators offering boxed desserts alongside dine-in service, and delivery kitchens where packaging size needs to match product format rather than default to a single large box.

3. Operational benefits of the Folding Cake Box 7x7x3" for takeaway and delivery

• Right-sized packaging for small-portion service: A 7x7x3" format matched to the product being packed helps keep the item centred and stable during transit, avoiding the movement and presentation issues that can occur when a small cake or dessert is placed in an oversized box.
• Ships flat for compact storage: Boxes are supplied flat-packed and assembled on demand, which supports bakeries, cafés, and delivery operators with limited storage space. Flat-pack storage also simplifies inventory counts and reduces the footprint required for stock holdings.
• Assembles in seconds without tape or glue: The folding construction can be assembled by staff in a single motion, supporting fast packing workflows during service peaks.
• Stackable when assembled for delivery: Filled 7x7x3" boxes stack cleanly in display cabinets and delivery bags, which helps staff and riders transport multiple orders without crushing contents.
• Consistent sizing across cases: Uniform dimensions within the case support predictable packing workflows and make it straightforward to train new staff on pack formats.

5. What sets this Folding Cake Box 7x7x3" from Lumapack apart

Compared with many standard cake boxes available to UK foodservice operators, this Lumapack box is offered with a focus on supply reliability, flat-pack storage efficiency, and plain-paper recyclable construction.

Plain-paper, no plastic construction
