Tuck boxes are small cardboard boxes that are used for holding and presenting small items like gifts, baked goods, cards, jewelry, and more. They are called “tuck boxes” because the lid flaps tuck inside the bottom of the box. Tuck boxes add an element of surprise and delight when opening them to reveal the item inside.
They come in various sizes, shapes, and colors. The most common tuck box sizes are 2×2 inches, 3×3 inches, and 4×4 inches. But custom sizes can also be made. Tuck boxes can have straight sides, angled sides, heart shapes, circle shapes, and more. They usually have a solid color exterior but can also have custom graphics and patterns printed on them.
