Kuih boxes for 2 to 12 pieces
Kuih is sold by the piece and gifted by the box, and the pieces are small, soft and sticky. A shallow box sized to the exact grid of pieces stops them sliding into each other on the way home.
These kuih boxes are reverse tuck end cartons: the front panel stays clean for your shop name and artwork. Every size below is a starting point; type the size of your own kuih and the dieline follows.

Flat blank sizes are computed by the Makan Box dieline engine at a 0.35 mm board and are recomputed for the board you choose. Sizes marked on request are outside what this structure can be drawn at today, or larger than a standard 72 x 102 cm press sheet; we quote those by hand.
Reverse tuck end carton
The top tuck opens from the front and the bottom tuck closes from the back, which keeps the front face clean for artwork and uses a little less board.
