Printed Paper Bags

Custom Printed Cookie Bags

Cookies are bought on appearance more than almost any bakery item — the chunks, the cracks, the visible chocolate. Packaging that hides all of that works against the sale.

That is why window bags are far more common here than for other baked goods.

Design Your Own

Design Your Custom Cookie Bags

Pick a colour, put your name on it, and see how the idea reads before you ask anyone for a price. It is a sketch rather than a manufacturing proof — the real shape is cut from the product you already serve.

Finish

On unbleached board every colour prints warmer than it looks here. Two inks chosen for kraft beat four fighting the brown.

Carry this into the full designer

The full page adds the size, board, print and quantity, then sends the whole specification over in one go. Nothing is committed to at any point.

The Product Sells Itself If You Let It Show

A cookie behind an opaque bag is a description. The same cookie behind a window is the thing itself.

Where cookies are sold from a shelf rather than a counter, the window is usually worth its cost several times over.

Counter Sales Against Retail Packs

  • Counter sales — speed matters, plain bags are fine, the cookie is already visible.
  • Retail shelf — a window and a printed panel do the selling.
  • Gift packs — presentation and a sealed closure matter more than speed.
  • Wholesale to cafés — labelling and shelf life information become relevant.

The same cookie may need two different bags depending on where it is sold.

Ordering, Artwork and Delivery

Getting a Quote

Measure the item, then add enough on each side to fold and tuck. We reply with a written specification, the minimum order quantity and the lead time for your job.

Artwork

One or two colours reproduce most reliably on an absorbent stock. Full file requirements are set out in our artwork guidelines.

Turnaround

Lead times depend on the print method, run length and press schedule, so we confirm yours on the quote rather than publishing a single figure.

Delivery in the UK

Orders are dispatched on national carriers to any UK address. Seedelivery information for how dates are given.

Custom Cookie Bags: Common Questions

Is a window worth the extra cost?

On a shelf, usually yes — cookies sell on appearance and a window shows it. At a counter where the product is already visible, it adds cost without adding much.

Do cookie bags need to be grease resistant?

For anything with a high butter content or melted chocolate, yes. Plain shortbread-style biscuits are drier and often fine in an ordinary bag.

Is a window worth the cost?

On a shelf, usually yes, because cookies sell on appearance. At a counter where the product is already visible, it adds less.

Do cookie bags need grease resistance?

For high-butter cookies and melted chocolate, yes. Drier shortbread-style biscuits are often fine in an ordinary bag.

What is different about a retail pack?

It needs a seal and space for weight, ingredients and allergens. A service bag needs neither.

Can we use one bag for both?

Rarely well. Decide which use dominates rather than adapting a service bag for a shelf afterwards.

Will cookies break in a bag?

Flat bags protect poorly against crushing. For gifting or postal sale, a box or a rigid insert is the safer route.

Can we print in one colour?

Yes, and on kraft a single strong colour reads well. Save the detail for a window if you want the product to show.

Do these suit a market stall?

They do, and the low unit cost suits high-volume outdoor selling where each bag is used once.

How do we size them?

From your largest cookie and the number per bag. Cookies vary far more in diameter than people expect.

Prefer to Talk It Through?

Sizing questions are usually quicker on the phone, especially if you have the product in front of you.
