Cake box with base - FunCakes 15 cm height
Reinforced cardboard box with removable lid and included round board, for layer cakes and naked cakes
The cake box with FunCakes base is a reinforced cardboard packaging dedicated to transporting and presenting layer cakes, naked cakes, tiered cakes, and shareable entremets. Its 15 cm height makes it the ideal option for tall decorated cakes with multiple layers of filling, icing, and finishing touches.
Each box is delivered with an included round cake board (3 mm cardboard), allowing you to place the cake stably before closing the removable lid. The square shape of the container perfectly fits common round cakes (Ø 20 to 26 cm) while leaving enough space for side decorations and drips.

Patissland tips for transport and presentation
Tip 1: let the icing set before closing
For a drip cake or a cake covered with buttercream, wait at least 30 minutes at room temperature before closing the lid. This prevents drips or swirls from sticking to the cardboard and damaging the decorations when opened.
Tip 2: transport only on a flat surface
The included support stabilizes the cake in the box but does not compensate for vehicle tilting. Place the box flat in the trunk, ideally on a non-slip mat, never on the inclined seat. For trips longer than 30 minutes, use a cooler or insulated bag in hot weather.
Tip 3: use the removable lid for presentation
The removable lid allows for a spectacular unveiling effect in front of guests. Place the closed box in the center of the table, remove the lid at the moment of singing or speeches, then use the cardboard base to lift the cake directly onto the serving stand.
Frequently asked questions
Which size to choose between 25x25 and 30x30?
The 25x25 cm size is suitable for round cakes up to Ø 22 cm (6 to 14 guests). The 30x30 cm size is necessary for cakes Ø 24 to 28 cm (14 guests and more), as well as for number cakes and letter cakes. The calculator at the top of the page gives you the exact recommendation based on your project.
Is the 15 cm height sufficient for a 4-layer cake?
Yes, the 15 cm internal height can accommodate 4 layers of sponge cake 3 cm each with filling (12 cm), plus a comfortable margin for upper decorations and a topper. For more than 4 layers or a tall cake topper, plan for an extra-tall box.
Is the included round base food-safe?
Yes, the supplied 3 mm cardboard base is food-grade, compatible with direct contact with cakes. You can also place a sheet of parchment paper or cellophane between the cake and the cardboard for extra separation if you wish.
Can the cake be stored in the refrigerator inside the box?
The cardboard withstands refrigeration without deformation, but only for a short duration (24 to 48 hours maximum). For extended storage, remove the cake from the box and place it under a glass dome or wrap it in cling film, as the cardboard can absorb ambient fridge moisture.
Is the box suitable for long-distance car transport?
Yes, the reinforced cardboard and base ensure stability on standard trips. For trips longer than 30 minutes or in hot weather, add an insulated bag or cooler to preserve the cake's temperature, especially for entremets and mirror glazes.
Can the box be personalized with a logo or message?
The FunCakes box is delivered plain white without printing. You can easily personalize it with a sticker label, a decorative ribbon around the lid, or a printed cardboard topper placed on top.
