Description

Custom cake labels for boxes, boards and treat bags

Finish every bake with custom cake labels printed in the UK on durable waterproof vinyl. Fridge, grease and moisture resistant with full-colour print and optional white ink - ideal for cake boxes, boards, treat bags and jars.

Home bakers and cake businesses use our cake labels to brand boxes, seal treat bags and add ingredient or allergen information. The waterproof vinyl handles fridge storage, buttercream and damp far better than paper stickers.

We cut every label to your exact size and shape - a round seal, a neat rectangle or a custom die-cut - so it fits your packaging perfectly. Add allergen and ingredient text, thank-you messages or a logo, design online or upload artwork, and we dispatch as soon as you approve your proof.

Fridge & grease proof

Waterproof vinyl handles fridge storage, buttercream and damp without peeling.

Full-colour branding

Bright, fade-resistant print for logos, thank-yous and designs.

Allergen ready

Add clear ingredient and allergen text in the online designer.

Any size or shape

Box seals, treat-bag labels and jar labels cut to your spec.

Our print guarantee

We print exactly what you approve, matched as closely as we can to your on-screen proof - with a natural tolerance for colour and material differences.

What we guarantee

  • Colour reproduced as closely as possible to your approved proof
  • Sharp, high-quality printing and clean, accurate cutting
  • Any printing, cutting or material fault is on us - we’ll put it right or reprint free

What’s down to you

  • Spelling, wording and layout in your artwork
  • Setting up white ink and clear areas correctly for your design
  • We can’t improve low-quality graphics - upload poor resolution and it will print at poor resolution
  • We print your design exactly as approved, so please check your proof carefully

By approving your proof you accept the following. Colour is reproduced as accurately as possible but cannot be guaranteed to match your screen, a printed sample or a previous order exactly. Differences between rich (full-colour) black and single black, colours sitting near the edge of the CMYK gamut, fine tints and slight variation between materials, finishes and print batches are a normal part of the printing process and may not be visible on your on-screen proof. These are considered within standard commercial print tolerance and are not classed as a fault. Where any question of print quality arises, StickyThings is the final arbiter of whether a job has printed correctly.


Frequently asked questions

Are cake labels food-safe to use on packaging?

They are designed to label the outside of boxes, bags, boards and jars rather than to touch food directly. On packaging they resist fridge storage, grease and moisture without peeling.

Can I add allergen and ingredient information?

Yes - add clear ingredient, allergen and best-before text in the online designer, or upload artwork that already includes it.

Are they waterproof for the fridge?

Yes - printed on waterproof vinyl so they survive chilling, condensation and grease without curling or smudging.

Can I order any size or shape?

Absolutely. Set any width and height, choose a rectangle, square, circle, oval or a custom die-cut shape, and we cut to your exact spec.

What is the minimum order?

Just one. Order a single label or thousands, and the price per label drops as your quantity grows.

How quickly will I get my labels?

Once you approve your proof we get straight to print. For our current production and delivery times, please see our turnaround and delivery page.
