What kind of confectionery packaging suits my item?

Food products have different packaging requirements. Check to see if your confectionery product falls into these categories to find out what kind of packaging is best.

Sugar confectionery:

• Candied nuts or fruit

• Pastillage

• Chewing and bubble gum

• Sugar-free sweet options

• Lollies

• Jelly products

• Chewy candy

Candy is usually packed with metallised linings to keep moisture out. The lining prevents them from sticking to each other.  Jar-shaped pouches are also ideal, as it gives your product a more enticing appeal and still provides a good barrier to protect your product.

Clear plastic pouches work well for candy. The Pouch Shop offers sustainable, clear stand-up pouches that are fully recyclable. Perfect for products that require a low light barrier and allow for better materials for recycling.

Chocolate confectionery:

• Chocolate bars or drops

• Chocolate-covered food items

• Cremes

• Truffles or bonbons

Pouches with plastic or metallised lining are best for chocolate packaging. It prevents air or moisture from penetrating the product. If you have a chocolate product to sell, choose wide packaging. Ideally, twice or three times the size of the net weight. This keeps the chocolate fresh, cool, and intact.

Baker’s confectionery:

• Pastries

• Cakes, bars, and other kinds of baked goods

• Cookies

• Cookie bars

These products need air-tight quality to keep moisture at bay. Pouches with a lot of space and zipper closures will maintain freshness after your consumers have opened the packet. Stand up pouches with oval or square windows, kraft paper bags are the best pouches to use for baker’s confectionery. 

How Does the Metallised Inner Layer Preserve Chocolate’s Freshness?

Chocolate is highly sensitive to air, moisture, and external odours. A metallised inner layer acts as a strong barrier to protect against these elements, ensuring your chocolate retains its intended taste and texture.

The layer is made of a polymer film coated with a thin layer of metal, offering excellent insulation without the weight or cost of aluminium foil. This protective barrier helps prevent oxidation, moisture absorption, and unwanted flavour contamination, keeping your chocolates fresh from production to consumption.

What Sizes Do You Have Available?

Our chocolate packaging comes in a variety of sizes to suit different product types, from small artisan chocolate bars to bulk confectionery pouches. Some of our most common sizes include:

• 50g, 100g, 250g, 500g, and 1kg net weight options

• Resealable options allow customers to enjoy their chocolates at their own pace
