Candy trays and boxes combine a fitted tray insert with an outer box, holding each candy piece in its own molded or die-cut position rather than loose or simply divided by flat cardboard walls. It’s the format gift and corporate accounts choose when an assortment needs to look composed the moment the lid comes off. Crat Packaging produces these at our own US facility, distinct from our simpler candy boxes with dividers, with free design support.
Key Features
- Molded or die-cut tray insert — each piece sits in its own fitted cavity.
- Two-part tray-and-box system — tray nests inside a separate outer box.
- Secures pieces in transit — cavities stop movement and chipping.
- Gift-grade presentation — designed for a composed, retail-quality reveal.
- Mixed-shape compatibility — cavities can vary in size within one tray.
- Free die-cutting — custom tray cavity layouts at no plate charge.
