Good afternoon.

Just recently my local market (bakery) stopped selling me cake containers. The little plastic containers there cakes are displayed in. I have a cake order due THIS FRIDAY and I have no idea how I will cover the cake to transport it. Does anyone know how to make a cake box or have a link to a site that shows how? I've googled but I'm not getting any results!

FYI - The cake I make will NOT fit in the little cardboard boxes Micheal's sell.

Thanks in advance!!!

You may want to invest in buying some cake boxes instead...If you can no longer get them for free you will have to buy them.

I use chip boxes..Every month I volunteer at my kids school to do Chip Day...I take the boxes with me after....Great for my Tiered cakes....I order my slab boxes though....Try a UPS store or Fed ex store..They sell boxes...Maybe try another grocery store and see if they will sell you a cake box this one time..

I ordered from Uline and less than 24 hrs later they were at my doorstep. I did not expedite the shipping either.

I don't know what kind of boxes Michael's sells, but maybe this will help.
