Custom Chocolate Boxes for Confectioners and Gift Brands
Chocolate packaging is as much about the experience as the product. A beautifully designed chocolate box with dividers, cushioned inserts, and premium finishes turns a confection into a luxury gift. Teal Packaging creates custom chocolate boxes for artisan chocolatiers, confectionery brands, and companies that use chocolate as a gifting vehicle.

Inserts and Dividers
Every chocolate deserves its own compartment. We manufacture thermoformed plastic trays (gold, brown, or clear), die-cut cardboard dividers, food-grade paper cups, and cushioned inserts that prevent chocolates from touching and smudging. For gift-focused packaging, we add ribbon closures, branded tissue paper, and printed belly bands.
Food Safety
All materials in direct contact with chocolate are FDA-compliant and food-safe. We use food-grade inks, no chemical odor from adhesives, and temperature-appropriate materials that will not affect chocolate quality. For broader food packaging needs, visit our food boxes page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What material is best for chocolate boxes?
For gift boxes, rigid chipboard (1200gsm+) with paper wrapping delivers the luxury feel. For retail bars and everyday chocolates, 350gsm to 400gsm SBS with lamination works well and costs less.
Can you make chocolate boxes with individual compartments?
Yes. We produce thermoformed trays and die-cut dividers for any number of chocolates. Standard layouts include 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, and 24 compartments.
Are chocolate boxes available in custom shapes?
Yes. Heart, circle, hexagon, star, and any custom shape. Die-cut construction makes any shape possible.
What is the minimum order?
100 boxes. Rigid chocolate gift boxes start at 100 units. Folding cartons for bars also at 100 units. Free US shipping.
How do I keep chocolates from melting during shipping?
We can include insulated liners and recommend cold-pack shipping methods for warm-weather deliveries. The box itself should be printed in light colors to reduce heat absorption.
