For home bakers in Singapore and Malaysia

Branded boxes for home bakers

Most home bakers in Singapore and Malaysia start the same way: orders over Instagram, WhatsApp or Carousell, baked in a home kitchen, handed over in a plain box with a sticker on top. The bake is good. The box does not say so.

Makan Box lets you size a box to your bento cake, cookies or kuih, put your own artwork on it and watch it fold in 3D before you spend anything. Request a quote for the quantity you sell; small batches are welcome.

Questions

Anything that depends on the print run, such as minimums and lead times, is confirmed with your quote.

I do not have artwork yet. Can I still order?
Yes. A box can be made plain, and your saved design keeps its size if you add artwork on a later run.
What is the minimum order?
On request. Every box is made to order at your size and small batches are welcome. The firm minimum depends on the box, the board and the print run, and comes with your quote.
Is the packaging food safe?
Board grades and food-contact documentation come from the print partner’s board specification, and are on request. Tell us what touches the box (dry, oily or moist food) when you ask for a quote so we can match the board, or plan a liner.
What is the lead time?
On request. It is confirmed with your quote and counted from the day you approve the proof.
Can I get a sample first?
Samples are on request. Ask for one when you request a quote and we will tell you what is possible for your size and board.
Do I get a dieline?
Every box is drawn by our dieline engine at your exact inside size and board thickness, so there is no stock template to adapt. You see the flat dieline and a 3D fold in the configurator, production files (PDF, DXF and SVG) are generated from your order, and a dieline file for your own designer is available on request.
Do you make more than boxes?
Yes. The Makan Box range also covers paper cups, kraft paper bags, stand-up pouches, labels and stickers, noodle boxes, bento trays, sauce sachets and tingkat tins. Boxes are sized and drawn online; the rest of the range is quoted on request.
How do I order?
Request a quote with the size and quantity you need, or size the box yourself in the configurator first. A person replies with a firm price, minimum and lead time for your run.
