Custom party food boxes in your own colours and theme, built to hold more than one kind of food without everything sliding together. Orders start from 100 units.

There’s a Batman version of this box on this site, a Blue version, a Birthday version. This page is for when none of those presets are quite right: your own colours and theme, built from scratch rather than picked off a shortlist.

Why this page has no fixed colour

A themed box like Blue Party Food Boxes is fixed by design. This one starts from your own brief instead: your event colours, your own artwork or theme, chosen from ACP’s standard materials (kraft, cardboard, corrugated or rigid board) rather than restricted to a preset palette. The structure is open too, a straightforward tuck-end or auto-lock carton for most orders, or a drawer or magnetic-closure format if the event calls for something that opens with more ceremony. That flexibility is the whole point of a plain party food box existing alongside the themed versions.

When the box has to hold more than one thing

A single-portion takeaway box holds one dish. This one often carries several at once, sandwiches, cake, crisps, something dipped in sauce, and keeping them from sliding into each other matters more here than it does elsewhere on this site. Die-cut inserts, cut to the layout you need in card, paperboard or foam, keep separate items separate rather than left loose to mix in transit. Where different items carry different allergens, that separation also makes it easier to label each compartment accurately instead of relying on one combined list for the whole box. Food-contact material suitability is confirmed for the specific material before production.

One box, several kinds of event

Birthdays get mentioned most, but the same box turns up at office leaving dos, product launches and Christmas parties just as often. Nothing about the structure changes between those occasions, only the artwork does, which is exactly why a single flexible product makes more sense here than a separate themed version for every kind of event a business might run.

No surprises on the invoice

Orders start from 100 units. Design support is free. That covers adapting your artwork and any divider layout to the dieline. A digital 3D mock-up is free. It shows the finished compartments and print before anything goes to production. 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. Any inserts add a second material to account for, so ask us how a specific divider choice affects the finished recyclability rather than assuming the outer box tells the whole story.

Already sure the event is a birthday, or wants a specific character theme? ACP’s preset party pages, including Blue Party Food Boxes and Birthday Party Food Boxes, get there faster. Need a single plain material with none of the theme or divider reasoning above? Cardboard Party Food Boxes is simpler. Everything else, food packaging or otherwise, is catalogued under Custom Food Boxes.

Product FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers about ordering, artwork, production, materials and delivery.

Can I choose my own colours and theme, or is this a fixed design?

Your own. This page isn't tied to one theme the way the Batman, Blue or Birthday versions are. Tell us the colours, artwork or theme you have in mind and it gets built around that.

Can the box be divided for more than one type of food?

Yes, with a die-cut insert built around the actual contents rather than a generic grid. Tell us roughly what's going in the box, how many separate items, and whether anything's wet or sauced, and the layout gets specified from that.

What is the minimum order for party food boxes?

Orders start from 100 units. Standard production takes 6 to 8 business days after approval. UK delivery is free.

Would a preset version like Birthday Party Food Boxes suit me better?

Possibly, if a standard birthday design already covers what you need without custom artwork. Birthday Party Food Boxes is the faster route in that case; this page is for when the theme itself needs to be your own.

What's the difference between this and White Party Food Boxes?

Colour commitment, essentially. White Party Food Boxes stays deliberately colour-free so ribbon, table settings or a changing theme do the colour work instead. This page is for printing your own chosen colours and artwork directly onto the box. If you don't want to print colour at all, White is the simpler starting point.

Can allergen information be printed for the different items inside?

Yes, though with several different food types in one box, it's worth listing what each compartment contains rather than one combined list. The layout can reserve space for that. Getting the wording itself right stays with your business or your regulatory adviser.

Is this suitable for a corporate event, not just a party?

Yes. Office leaving dos, launches and client events use the same box and the same process as a birthday order; only the artwork and the food inside actually change.
