Little triangle boxes for one slice or two, the kind you hand out a walk-up window or a food truck. Corrugated or paperboard, coated inside so the grease stays put, and a couple of vents if you don’t want a soggy crust. Sized for New York, jumbo or deep dish slices.
Your time is very important to us so we have kept it short.
Half a block. That’s about how far a slice on a paper plate gets before the cheese slides off. So we make custom pizza slice boxes, a small wedge that keeps a slice or two flat and warm while somebody walks back to work or rides the subway or climbs into the bleachers, and nobody ends up wearing lunch on their shirt.
Who buys them? Slice shops and food trucks mostly, then stadiums, food courts, campus cafeterias, and those 2 a.m. spots next to the bars. If a good chunk of your sales are single slices to go, a proper box also does something a plate never will. It puts your name in someone’s hand for the whole walk back to the office.
Slices aren’t all the same, and a box that’s too big lets the slice slide into the corner and fold. A New York slice from an 18 inch pie is long and floppy, so it needs a box around 10 to 11 inches on the long side. Off a 14 inch pie it’s more like 8 or 9. Then the jumbo slices, from 24 or 28 inch pies, which honestly need their own giant wedge and thicker board too, that much cheese is heavy. Deep dish and Sicilian squares want more height, so the lid doesn’t press into the toppings.
Bring us a slice size or your pie diameter and we’ll work out the wedge. Our pizza box sizes guide has a chart if you want to look ahead.
Steam kills crust. Close a hot slice up tight and in a few minutes it’s limp, so we punch a few small holes in the lid, same as a full pie box, and most of the heat stays while the wet air gets out. If your slices sit under a heat lamp for a while before they sell, you’ll really want those vents.
And grease. Without a coating inside, the oil wicks right through paperboard and you get orange blotches all over your logo. Longer trip, like delivery, or the hike from a stadium concession stand all the way up to the nosebleeds? We’d go E-flute corrugated, it’s stiffer and holds a bit more heat.
Slice boxes are small, so keep the artwork simple. A logo, your social handle, maybe a line about your specials. Bold, one or two color designs read best from across a counter and cost less to print. White board makes colors bright. Kraft looks rustic and hides the odd grease mark better, which a lot of shop owners appreciate on a Friday night.
We draw the dieline and set up your art for free, then you get a digital proof. They come flat and fold up in a second with a tuck lid, so a stack fits under the counter fine. You could start at around 50 boxes depending on the style, but most shops go bigger because the per box price drops. Figure 10 to 12 business days after you approve, and shipping in the USA is free.

Yes. A double slice box is a bit wider at the back and holds two slices stacked or side by side, depending on how you prefer to serve them.
For hot slices that travel more than a few minutes, vents help a lot. For slices eaten right away at the counter, you can skip them.
White prints brighter. Kraft hides grease spots and looks rustic, so really, how saucy are your slices?
