BOXES FOR CAKE POPS: WORK IN PROGRESS

Today we bring you this kind of blog post where we explain you how we work in SelfPackaging, what is the procedure to introduce you a new lovely little gift box. In this case, it’s time for the Cake Pop box. 

What is a Cake Pop? Some of you may ask yourselves what it is. So, for all of you we want to dedicate this Cake Pop selection from Pinterest to you. Enjoy it ;)

What do you think about it? Sudden hunger? Looking forward to decorating a birthday table? Until now, in SelfPackaging our customers were the ones who designed a way to present the cake pops properly. As Nuria from The Cupcake Moment blog did; she was successful with our lidded box for cakes, ref. number: 2242:

If you want an original cake, Nuria is the one you are looking for… 

  

 However, this wasn’t enough for us… We want to give you a box for cake pops as soon as possible! So, we have gotten down to work! We are designing it and we want to show you what we have made… They are just prototypes, but we would like to know your opinion about them… 

  Firstly, we want to prepare a pair of cake pop stands. In the picture you can see our cake stand, we are trying to design a new one specially for cake pops, this is simply a trial. The idea will be making the base thicker to maintain the cake pop sticks upright and well held, in case a breeze comes to your party. 

As you can see, what they contain is not cake pops either… Do you want to know how we have made it? Cheap and attractive: pink marshmallows in the shape of a mushroom, stuck on a stick. To wrap them up, we have used our coloured tissue paper and Mireia, one of our design artists, has drawn little lines and dots… Thank you Mireia for your patience! Then, a little bit of kraft cord… and they are ready! Well, the fuchsia sateen ribbon as the final detail gives it the final touch.

 

One of the things we will also adapt for sure are our popcorn boxes (ref.2221) to make them suitable to contain cake pops. It will be as easy as adding into them a cake pop insert, optional of course, to let you decorate your ‘oh-so-lovely’ party table.

To make these fake cake pops we have used: delicious Happy Hippo chocolates from Kinder for the big one, and the classic round lollipops (Chupa Chups) for the small one. Here once again Mireia has given us her creativity.  

So… what do you think? That is not all folks! Far from it, we have a lot of ideas we want to carry out because we want to fulfil all the suggestions you have made us, but step by step… We will keep you updated. 

 

FOX BOX ❤ ❤ ❤

We know you love DIY tutorials with downloading materials more than children love candy bars so…

Here you are! Check what super idea we give you today to make with our gift bag 

The little box is reference number 2001 in our catalogue, in its small size. 

Cardboard fox detail 

The final result is ideal as a welcome gift for a baby. Baby showers or christening parties are not going to be bored anymore.

We have thought about everything, so you can choose between “It’s a boy” in blue or “It’s a girl” in pink.

Welcome baby 

This time we are not going to give you complicated steps to follow to make the box, because they are not necessary.

The only thing you need is our gift bag ref. 2001 and these PDF files that you can download for free clicking on the image below.

Doesn’t matter if it is a baby girl or a baby boy… The result will be super cute anyway.

But, as we said, we have thought about everything… If the gift bag doesn’t suit your needs to wrap your present… What about if you prefer any other of our gift boxes?

No worries! Because you can download these decorated labels collection as well. They are ideal for that occasion.

So… baby girl or baby boy, you already have the material for your welcome presents for totally adorable babies!


Welcome baby!

If it’s hard to think about your Christmas gifts and decorations, Self Packaging wants you to make it a little bit easier. How? The perfect packaging for your presents or simply don’t waste your time thinking about Christmas decorations.

Our star gift box is the suitable box for your Christmas presents, it’s perfect for jewellery, chocolates or your knick-knacks you can’t resist to buy in Christmas markets. At our office we have to confess that the use of the star has been another one, very different. All the employees have hanged their star up on our Christmas tree with a wish for the next year inside. We will cross our fingers, hope our wishes will come true.

This year Rudolph isn’t at the North Pole, he is among us. A tip, let your children make the decoration on it, they will enjoy painting a red nose on it. This way they are going to participate in the Christmas decorations.

But because we haven’t got our children at work we decided to decorate the reindeer by ourselves, we wrap it up in white lights. Easy and smart, what else do we need?

Of course, you’re right we need a Christmas tree as well! But this year there’s no need to get all your home floor dirty! This year just take the Self Packaging one, easy to make, easy to clean, easy to get (www.selfpackaging.com). 

But if you’re a Christmas conservative person, and you prefer the real one, we accept it, but the thing you can’t miss is our small box in Christmas tree shape. One of the must-have this Christmas, how cute it could be all the Christmas tree surrounded by Self Packaging Christmas tree boxes and Self Packaging star boxes hanged on it.

But as we always say, YOU are the most important thing for us, and you are the one who has the power to create. Lucía from www.baballa.com sent us this cute pic of her Christmas tree box. Her child is decorating it to make an advent calendar. We love it!

Apart from handmade and crafts, we are animal lovers as well. That’s why we created some friends for Rudolph: our well-known Rabbit named Packito and a Squirrel without any name. Is there any name that pops into your mind for it?

These gift boxes are going to delight your kids. And after that we’re sure they are going to take part of your kids’ rooms. See how lovely it looks in one of our followers child’s room (Bea from http://www.conbotasdeagua.com/)

Christmas is time for family gatherings but Self Packaging wants you to immortalize all these happy moments. By the moment we’re not designing cameras yet but we design these cute photo frames for you and your family portraits.

There’s no –familiy or friends- gathering without food. A table plenty of delicatessen, mmmm… it’s almost dinner time and you can notice I’m hungry. We have this lovely stand to put your starters, desserts or whatever you want for making your cooked or baked food look nicer. In a short period we can also introduce you our cake exhibitor.

But if you’re really design lover, we’re sure you’re going to adore these cardboard squares and vases, we’re looking forward to seeing what ideas you have for that, we have some but keep them inside our pocket at the moment: stationery stuff in it, to decorate your fav corner...

So many options!!! But we’re sure that you’ve already picked your favourite one! For Christmas or anytime, any occasion is a great occasion for making your life more lovely with SelfPackaging.

Long live the handmade!!
