Custom Kids Snack Boxes That Delight Parents, Impress Retailers, and Elevate Your Brand

In the competitive world of children’s food, presentation matters just as much as nutrition. A thoughtfully designed, high-quality custom kids snack box doesn’t just carry snacks — it communicates your brand values, attracts attention on the shelf, and builds trust with parents.

Whether you’re a children’s snack brand, launching a subscription snack pack, or supplying to schools and supermarkets, the right packaging can help your product stand out and sell faster. Here’s how.


1. Why Snack Box Packaging Is Crucial in the Kids Segment

When it comes to packaging for kids, the expectations are high:

  • Safe – Made from certified food-grade materials
  • Attractive – Bright colors, fun shapes, child-friendly graphics
  • Practical – Easy to open, portioned, and portable for lunchboxes
  • Eco-conscious – Plastic-free, recyclable, or compostable materials
  • Brandable – Custom shapes, mascots, QR codes, educational add-ons

At Sunshine Packaging, we help brands turn ordinary snack boxes into interactive, engaging packaging experiences that both kids and parents love.


2. Custom Structures Tailored for Children’s Snacks

We offer a wide range of paper-based packaging formats to fit your product, from single-serve energy bars to assorted snack kits. Popular formats include:

We offer:

  • 🎨 Full CMYK and Pantone color printing
  • 🌟 Gloss/matte lamination, spot UV, embossing, or foil for a premium touch
  • 🖍️ Character licensing or original mascot integration (if provided)
