EASY-PEASY Strategy For Packaging!

Let’s look at how we can make packaging simple for you.

Packaging is very essential for any baking business. We found a simple formula for you to remember. It’s easy-peasy. No, seriously, it is EASY-PEASY!

paper bags

Explore material

It is essential to responsibly pick the material that we choose for our packaging. Let’s try and use as many disposable and recyclable items as possible. Reduce plastic and other similar materials. Try using glass, paper, or earthen material.

Ask around

It is possible that you do not know the locality and what is available and being used in the neighborhood. When you set up a new bakery, make sure you ask around and strike deals with vendors who have a good reputation.

Set aside a budget

Once you have many deals on the table, calculate the amount of money you’d have to spend per order. See how you can have brown paper bags for lighter goods like brownies and stronger bags for heavy items like cakes etc. Check if there are packages that have handles on them which will help eliminate the need for a different bag.

Personalize

Try and see if you can add a personal touch by adding a cute handwritten message to the order. You could also add black chalk stickers and write with chalk to make it more appealing. You can use stickers with names of pastries or again, handwrite them. You can add this to any box, jar, or packaging. Try to add a simple branding design to this card and make it look special enough for the customer you want to retain and keep it with them.

Encourage feedback

Once the order has reached, make sure you check with the customers how they liked the packaging and of course the dessert. Make sure there were no spills and all desserts reached them fine.
