Oh hoppy day! Sweet hostess gift wrapping inspiration.

Oh hoppy day! Sweet hostess gift wrapping inspiration using cake pop boxes and hand lettering | Creative Bag

Looking for a fun way to package chocolates and baked goods as hostess gifts? Check out our cake pop boxes! They're not just for cake pops.

We simply added an Easter message to the box by adding "faux" hand lettering using a Sharpie paint marker. The ribbon is actually our plain white 1 1/2" satin ribbon that was coloured using watercolour paints.

Keep reading for the DIY instructions for adding hand lettering to the window of this box.

We added small chocolate bunnies and cookies from Christy's Gourmet Gifts to this cake pop box as a hostess gift idea. Green sizzle was added to the inside of the box to keep the chocolates and cookies in place and to add a pop of colour to the presentation.

Flower Treasures spray painted baby's breath in colours to match the watercolour ribbon.

The cake pop box also makes a great container to carry large chocolate Easter eggs. The sizzle keeps the egg from rolling around and covers the holes in the cake pop base.

Note: The cake pop box is sold in two parts. The lid makes it easier to transport cake pops on the base and is sold as an add on. Both are available in white and kraft. 



Here's how you can recreate the "hoppy day" hand lettering on the cake pop box window:

  1. Download the printable template.
  2. Print the template "size as is" to fit the box window.
  3. Cut the lettering out and centre it inside of the box as shown above. Use painter's tape to hold the lettering in place.
  4. Using a white Sharpie paint marker, trace the lettering on the outside of the window.

You can also use the "hoppy day" template to add faux letter on glass containers.
Use the same white Sharpie paint markers on glass so you can remove the lettering later using water and a paper towel.


If you try any of these ideas, tag us at #creativebaginspire and @creativebagco so we can see what you've created.

Hoppy Easter!

Making the Holidays Sweet

making the holidays sweet with the Sweet Life Collection | creativebag.com

We have so many creative customers that make the most incredibly beautiful baked goods.Their cookies and cakes are like pieces of art and they are the inspiration behind our exclusive Sweet Life Collection. 

The Sweet Life collection is basically white and gold with a "sprinkle" of colours. Think of it like holiday sugar cookies that are just waiting for you to add whatever colour of icing and sprinkles that you want - pastel or brights - because everything goes!

Products in the collection were intended to be used for gift packaging. Wouldn't these look amazing in window and instore displays in both bake shops and retail stores. 

Make it fun with lots of colours or keep it sophisticated and simple by just using white & gold like our custom cookies by Emma's Sweets. The DIY cookie cutter ornaments were created using oven baked clay and custom cookie cutters that match our "cookie and sprinkles" print.

bakery packaging for valentine's day | Creative Bag

Today I'm going to share a couple of ideas for packaging baked goods for Valentine's day. 

We think that you will love our new single cake pop boxes and small bakery window boxes. The scalloped edges are adorable and the clear windows allow you to show off the yummy treats inside.These boxes are available in both kraft and white.



diy for valentine's day - add glitter hearts to mason jar mugs ... dishwasher safe after 28 days | Creative Bag

Here's a little diy inspiration using our mason jar mugs ... add a gold glitter heart! These are adorable for Valentine's Day but they would also make sweet favors for a wedding, shower or party.

You can find my complete instructions for adding glitter to glass so that it is dishwasher safe in this post

Note: You will need 28 days for the glitter to cure before it is dishwasher safe, so if you make these for a Valentine's Day gift add a note card with a date stamp to let your loved ones know when they can be used.







Custom cookies displayed in our large glass containers for the holidays

Tuesday, 25 November 2014



custom made cookies packaged in glass containers for holiday gift giving | creativebag.com

Here's an adorable idea for the holidays ... display beautiful cookies in our large glass containers. The cookies will be gone in no time and the glass container(s) can be reused after the holidays for more than just food. I recommend this holiday packaging idea for a hostess gift, a client gift or for anyone on your list that would appreciate the extra thought and effort put into a custom gift like this.

Don't worry about trying to make these cookies yourself. It's so easy to find beautifully decorated cookies at this time of year. You will find them at your favourite bake shop, grocery store and even at coffee shops. I put coarse sugar in the bottom of the glass containers to create a snow like effect and also to keep the cookies in place so they don't move around and break.

Chalkboard tags were attached to the jar lids to use as gift tags. I wrote on the tags with a white chalk marker. The tag could be used as a Christmas ornament later on ... just decorate the other side with a cute saying or drawing and leave the string on for hanging.

We have a variety of different shapes of glass containers. I'd suggest that you buy the container first and select cookies to fit inside or have the cookies custom made in the size you want to fit.

Is Grandma making Christmas dinner (again) this year? Surprise her with one of these and she will be calling you "Martha" all day!

Planning a sweet table for the holidays? These cookie jars would make a sweet addition to your set up.

We purchased our custom cookies from  Branded Bites I had them made this summer so that I could feature this idea in our online magazine, Creative Living. The cookies were inspired by our Into the Woods holiday gift bags. I created actual size designs for each of the cookies that I wanted and emailed the art to Jamie at Branded Bites. The cookies were made on time, in the right size and the icing colours are (I'm sure that you will agree) amazing.

Please note that most of our glass containers can only be purchased in our stores. We do have a small assortment of glass containers that can be ordered online from Creative Bag Wedding if you are unable to visit one of our three stores in the GTA area
