Varnish
A transparent finishing layer available in gloss, satin, or matte effects. It enhances the printed surface and adds an extra layer of visual appeal and light protection.
Easter party food boxes in a pastel or spring-themed print, built for whatever the occasion actually is: an egg hunt, a family lunch, or a seasonal spread at work. Orders start from 100 units.
Easter falls on the same weekend every year. Miss it, and the box has nowhere else to go: it was built for one specific occasion, and the week after isn’t that occasion anymore.
Standard production takes 6 to 8 business days after approval. That figure is the same for every product ACP makes, and it doesn’t bend for a holiday weekend. It also covers production only: what happens before approval, and the delivery that follows once production finishes, both sit outside that count. A brief that lands in good time gives every stage of that chain room to work properly.
Unlike a single committed colour, Easter printing tends toward a palette: soft pastels, spring florals, egg or bunny motifs, alongside a logo or event name. That’s a design and artwork choice within ACP’s existing CMYK, Pantone, digital and offset printing capability, so it doesn’t change the box underneath, only what’s printed on it. Bright, bold colours work just as well if pastel isn’t the brief; the occasion sets the theme, not a fixed palette requirement.
Tell us who’s on the guest list. An egg hunt is a children’s event with adults mostly watching; a family lunch spans several generations at one table; a seasonal spread at work is colleagues, not family. The box behind all three can be the same structure, sized and briefed differently for each. Where children specifically are the recipients, Kids Party Food Boxes goes further into the sizing and handling questions than this page needs to.
Chocolate eggs, baked goods and sandwiches in one box is a genuinely common mix. A die-cut insert holds each in its own space rather than letting them shift against each other in transit, the same confirmed capability Party Food Boxes covers fully. Where that mix carries different allergens, separating them by compartment also makes each one easier to label correctly instead of relying on a single combined list for the whole box. An integrated carry handle and a gable-top structure both turn up on other suppliers’ Easter listings; neither is a confirmed ACP structural option, so mention it at quote stage if either one genuinely matters to your order.
The food sits in direct contact with the board once packed. Food-contact material suitability is confirmed for the specific material before production.
Design support is free. A digital 3D mock-up is free. Send over a pastel palette or spring artwork brief and it comes back rendered on the actual box shape and size, ready to check before any bulk order goes to print. Orders start from 100 units. Standard production takes 6 to 8 business days after approval. UK delivery is free. There are no setup fees.
An unlaminated paperboard construction may be easier to process through suitable paper-recycling streams than a heavily laminated alternative. Foil detailing and heavy lamination are the finishes that complicate that picture; a plain pastel or spring print sits well within the standard case. Flag your intended finish at quote stage and we’ll set out exactly what it means for recycling.
If a fully open-ended theme suits the event better than Easter specifically, Party Food Boxes is built around choosing your own colours and artwork from scratch. Custom Food Boxes lists every other style in the category.

Real feedback from customers who trust us with their custom packaging.
Clear answers about ordering, artwork, production, materials and delivery.
Count backwards from Easter Sunday. Standard production takes 6 to 8 business days after approval. That count sits between two stages it doesn't include: getting to approval in the first place, and the delivery that happens once production finishes. Total delivery time on top of production isn't a fixed published figure, so getting in touch as soon as the event is confirmed leaves the most room for all three stages.
No. Pastel and spring florals are the common choice, but bright or bold colours work exactly the same way. Tell us the artwork or palette you have in mind and it gets built around that.
It can. A die-cut insert separates chocolate eggs from baked goods or sandwiches, and if they carry different allergens, splitting them by compartment makes labelling each one straightforward. Party Food Boxes covers the same divider mechanism for any mix of items.
Not as confirmed standard options, no. Both appear on other suppliers' listings, so raise it directly at quote stage if either is specifically what you're picturing.
