One of those items is paper, which customers touch without a second thought. All of it is a statement about your business when you put it in a branded sleeve, pick it up from a printed pastry, wrap it in your own pattern as a gift.
Custom paper is an easy and inexpensive method to add your logo and colors to any products that would be out otherwise. Custom food paper and wrapping paper for cafes, bakeries, delis, retailers and gift brands made by Go Boxery.
Some of the following information on paper types, uses, weight, printing and ordering is of interest before you start.
Paper is the first, and last, thing that a customer will see. Even simple items can have a branded appearance with custom paper.
That’s a concern for small businesses. A printed sheet is actually an easier starting point to a custom box than a full custom box.
It’s also perfect for brands looking to achieve a natural, handmade feel, particularly when using custom kraft paper.
It’s the type of paper that it’s next to and how it’s used that determines the right paper. The answer changes depending on grease, moisture and heat; begin with the product.
| Paper Type | Best For |
| Kraft paper | For bakery, retail or gift wrapping, the natural, eco friendly look is achieved. |
| Butcher paper | Meats (deli), cheese and fresh, food-contact-safe. |
| Wax paper | According to Dr. J., these foods require a moisture-resistant wrap: Sandwiches, baked goods and anything that needs a moisture-resistant wrap |
| Butter paper | Fatty foods such as butter, cheese, pastries and more. |
| Wrapping paper | Items to sell and gifts that require strong branding. |
Personalized wax paper is ideal for sandwiches and baked goods, and custom butter paper is perfect for greasy foods such as butter and cheese. Food grade wax paper can also be used for lining baskets or trays.
Still haven’t decided which to try? Test a small amount of each paper and see which one works best for your product.
Custom food wrapping paper serves different functions in accordance with what they are wrapping. Here, it can be found more than anywhere else.
Whereas some brands have more than one paper in their range, all are branded the same so they appear a coherent and connected range.
Food packaging paper must always follow the manner in which the food is handled and served.
Paper size refers to two things: paper size, paper weight. The paper is cut to your size, and weight determines the behavior of the paper.
Heavier isn’t always better, though. You want a sheet to perform a function without adding weight or expense that’s unnecessary.
Let us know the item you are wrapping and how you are using it and we will recommend the most appropriate weight.
Printing plays a major role in determining the quality of your logo and how much it costs. Mixing and design is the key, and the right method is largely “volume” and “design”.
| Printing Method | Best For |
| Digital | Smaller orders, detailed drawings, fast turnaround, testing new designs |
| Flexographic | Simple designs used in butcher paper and wraps like those used in bulk orders. |
| Offset | Significant volumes and/or large sizes – when consistent colour is required. |
| Screen | Unusual, striking designs on ordinary objects |
Repeat designs on custom printed wrapping paper are frequently good for flexographic printing in mass quantities.
Full colour CMYK can be used for intricate graphics, Pantone spot colours for branded colours and custom colour matching for an exact match with your current brand. Using the same colour renders your paper easy to identify.
Consistent colors throughout orders makes it easy for your customers to identify your brand.
Ask for options such as matte or foil stamping if wrapping presents or for retail. In the case of food-contact paper, we’ll take you to the paper that is best suited for the situation.
Certifications are important if the paper comes into contact with food. Never assume to take delivery documentation for granted.
To ensure compliance with the requirements of your market and/or the use you intend to make of your paper, please check the rules for your market before ordering.
A good provider should be able to give you answers to these questions. For particular documents, please contact our staff before ordering.
