Customizing a gift by choosing their favorite sweets makes it even more special. Sweets are a good choice for gifts on special occasions, whether you're celebrating your birthday or the anniversary of someone else's.

We've compiled a list of tips to design your custom sweet box. From what should go in it to where you can find the perfect packaging!

What type of container is suitable for the sweet box?

You can buy plain, flat-pack cardboard boxes in various sizes from stationery or postal shops. You could make your box by recycling leftover pieces of card and taping them together. If you have tins, boxes of Christmas shortbread, or other sweet treats, they're a great way to make your gift more eco-friendly. Adding tissue paper to the bottom of your box will keep it clean, and if you're using loose sweets instead of a chocolate bar in heart-shaped packaging, make sure that your chosen container is suitable for holding them.

How many treats to pick?

Now that you have determined the box, you can estimate the number of treats you want to put in. A sweet box design is all about a lot of choices! So for a small sweet box, you also opt for many different treats, adding a few pieces per treat. For a sizeable sweet box, 8 to 12 different treats. Don't panic; you can go a long way by preparing and freezing or making multiple treats with one serving. Choosing sweets that taste and look great is the key to making your favorite sweet box. Sweets from brands like Aidin, Bykit, and Shoniz are always trendy and can be an excellent choice for a sweet box.

Please don't turn it into a circus! Before choosing your treats, think about the outcome. To make sure that your box has a nice color, it helps to choose a theme for the sweet box design. For example, select predominantly soft pastel shades to make a lovely spring box. To maintain a sense of balance, keep the primary colors simple: pink, green, and yellow. It would help if you also were left with the natural hues present in cookies (brown), chocolate (dark brown), and doughnuts (light brown).

Choosing the right treats

When you have decided on a box, selected treats, and choose your color scheme, it is time to start thinking about which items will go into the box. Alternating sizes throughout the box is helpful for a nice balance between large and small treats—and variety! Don't include anything larger than a donut or cupcake. You only want one of these treats in your box. Cookies are also a great addition—you can make them as big or small as you like, and the flat shape makes them easy to store! More giant cookies can, therefore, easily be stacked (with a lovely ribbon around them!). Adding different chocolates that match your color theme is also a great option. When you've got the big treats in hand, it's time to think about smaller ones—the fillers that will nicely round out your offerings. These treats, like macarons, chocolates, and marshmallows, make your treat box look well-stocked. And they're also why one can keep looking at a sweet box—so don't forget these when shopping!









Customizing the sweet box by choosing a small gift

By skillfully adding a small gift inside the sweet box, you can make it look more luxurious and appealing. The type of gift you include in your box is a matter of personal choice, but it should be consistent with the theme. For example, you could give the person a small handicraft such as a piece of turquoise handicrafts or an accessory like a ring or bracelet. Also, gifting leather accessories for people who are into that kind of thing is always excellent; make sure it's from Iran (lol).

Building your sweet box

Are you finished choosing all your treats? If this is your first time making a treat box, here are some tips for planning it out. First, instead of trying to fill up the entire thing with big treats at once (and risk having them spill everywhere when you pick them up), make small compartments inside larger ones by putting smaller boxes in or dividing off spaces using pieces of cardboard. You create a well-organized whole by dividing your candy container into smaller sections and assigning each part to a sure thing. When filling your box, please start with the most significant threats and divide them into different sections. Also, consider how you will arrange the smaller treats inside as well. For example, cookies, doughnuts, and macarons can be arranged in stacks or rows. Be sure to alternate your treats' different shapes, sizes, and colors so they'll be nicely presented.








Decorating a sweet box

Once your box or tin is full of treats, seal the lid and get ready to design your sweet box! Using brown Kraft paper, ribbon, and other decorative elements will make the package look extra fancy.
