cheap cake boxes with windows

lindos90

Hi, wondering if anyone can help,
Im looking for some cake boxes, (white bakery type ones that are flat and then folded to make into a box and lid)

They are a fundraising plan for our summer fair, (we will send each child home with one, and hopefully they will bring them back with cakes in, to be sold at the fair).

I have had a look on line, but can only find boxes without windows, or if they have windows they are very fancy (and expensive) we are wanting ones with windows, as last year we did get some without windows and it was a free for all as parents were opening boxes to look inside (even though we spent time writing on the boxes what was inside!) and then leaving them open, which was chaos!

Ive put this in the wanna buy it forum, but also thought it should go in the fundraising forum, Ive not double posted, but if one of the mods feels it would get a better response there, then please feel free to move it,
Thank you for any advice!

The ones with windows are expensive, my sister only buys them if the person the cake is for asks for a window, so far only one has. Your best thing would be to contact your local sugar craft supply shop and see if they can do a special deal as your buying a large number I take it?

If your in Manchester I can get the details of the place my sister buys from

Hi, thanks littlejohn, thats a good idea, no im not in manchester, but we do have a party/cake supply shop in town, so I will give them a try, never thought of that, just thought of tinternet! buying local would avoid P&P and support a local business as well, just hope they can help...
