Make this box About the regular slotted box
Folded shut and measured in 3D: the cavity is 233 × 233 × 127 mm and the product block fits without touching the board. Free to open and change; €2.50 for the PDF, €3.50 for the DXF or SVG.
Why these numbers
A two-layer 8-inch cake on a cake board, with 15 mm round and 25 mm for decoration.
Food. If the food touches the board, ask your board supplier for food-contact grade board. The drawing sets the shape; it does not make the board food-safe.
Every size on this page is an example to start from. Products change between models, editions and makers, so measure the one you are packing.
Where the product size comes from
An 8-inch round cake: from the manufacturer's published specification.
“The figures for 2 in. pans are based on a two-layer, 4 in. high cake.”

The flat blank
- Regular Slotted Container (FEFCO 0201): the major flaps meet in the middle.
- Slot width = 1.90 mm (caliper plus clearance). Any narrower and the corner tears when folded.
- Glue flap 35 mm on long wall 1; glue it to the inside of end wall 2.
- Flutes run vertically, along the height: maximum stacking strength.
