Custom Bread Bags

Custom bread bags are paper bags printed with your bakery name and logo that carry fresh loaves from your counter to the customer’s kitchen. We make them from food-grade white or natural kraft paper in flat, gusseted and window styles, so a long baguette and a round sourdough each get a bag that fits. Artisan bakeries, home bakers, cafes and farmers market stalls use them to sell bread that looks fresh and carries their brand. They are part of our wider range of custom food bags for bakeries and food shops.

Paper Bread Bags Keep The Crust Crisp For A Day Or Two

Paper bread bags keep a crusty loaf crisp for a day or two, because the paper lets moisture escape. Fresh bread keeps releasing steam after it leaves the oven. A plastic bag traps that steam, the crust turns soft within hours, and the damp air raises the risk of mold. Breathable paper lets a small amount of air pass through, so the crust stays dry and the crumb stays soft. This is the reason in-store grocery bakeries and artisan bakeries in the United States sell fresh bread in paper.

Custom Bread Bags For Baguettes, Loaves And Display Shelves

Wax Paper Store prints custom bread bags in three styles, and one order can mix all three with the same design.

Long Baguette Bags

Long, narrow bags hold baguettes, ficelles and French sticks. The open top leaves the end of the loaf visible, which tells customers the bread is fresh from the oven.

Gusseted Loaf Bags

Folded side gussets open up for round sourdough, rye loaves, brioche and sandwich bread. The square base keeps the loaf upright on a shelf, in a delivery box or on a farmers market table.

Bread Bags With Window

A clear window panel shows the crust, scoring and shape of the loaf without opening the bag. Grocery shelves and grab-and-go displays use window bags, because shoppers pick bread faster when they see it.

White Kraft Or Natural Kraft Paper

White kraft paper shows bright brand colors and gives cafes and modern bakeries a clean look. Natural brown kraft paper looks rustic and handmade, which matches sourdough shops, rye bakers and village-style bakeries. Both papers are tear-resistant and food-grade, so custom bread bags in either paper hold a heavy loaf without splitting at the seams. A grease-resistant paper option suits buttery brioche, focaccia and olive bread that leave oil marks on plain paper. Bakeries that wrap loaves in sheets in place of bags use the same paper as our custom kraft paper.

Turning Each Loaf Into A Bakery Advert

Custom printed bread bags turn every loaf into a small advert that leaves your shop in a customer’s hand. We print 1-color, 2-color or full-color artwork in CMYK or exact PMS brand colors with flexo or digital printing and water-based or soy-based food-safe inks. Bakeries add their logo, a repeat pattern, the bread name, a website, a QR code for online orders or a short ingredient line. Personalized bread bags for holidays, weddings and new product launches are also possible. Our design team prepares your artwork for free, and you approve a free digital proof before we print.

Paper Bread Bags Wholesale For Bakeries, Cafes And Markets

We supply paper bread bags wholesale to home bakers, small artisan bakeries and busy commercial bakeries across the United States. Cafes use the same custom bakery bags for croissants, dinner rolls and pastries sold next to their bread, and bagel shops pair them with our custom bagel bags. Delis, in-store grocery bakeries and farmers market sellers order wholesale bread bags, so every loaf leaves in custom bread bags that match their brand. Free shipping across the USA keeps your packaging cost easy to plan.

Food-Safe Paper That Touches The Bread

Every custom bread bag is made with FDA-compliant, food-grade paper and food-safe inks, because the inside of the bag touches the loaf directly. The print sits on the outer face of the bag, and the inner face is clean paper. Plain paper bread bags are accepted in many curbside paper recycling programs, and window bags recycle more easily after the clear panel is torn away, though local rules vary by city.

How To Pack Bread So It Stays Fresh

Bread stays fresh longer when it cools completely before it goes into the bag. Warm bread in a closed bag creates condensation, and condensation softens the crust. Pastries that leave the oven hot travel better in custom parchment paper bags, because the silicone-coated paper handles heat. Fold or roll the top of the bag once or twice to slow down drying, and store the bag at room temperature away from direct sunlight. A crusty loaf in paper tastes freshest on the day of baking, so paper bags suit bread that sells the same day.

Packaging That Matches Your Bread Bags

Many bakeries match their bread packaging with other printed items on the counter, so one logo appears on every bag a customer carries out. Cookies, brownies and sweet treats fit our custom cookie bags in the same print style. Send us your logo today, and we will share a free digital proof of your custom bread bags.
