Stollen Carton Direct from the Manufacturer
Ebro Color manufactures stollen cartons and packaging for Christstollen in various formats, tailored to weight and purpose. Standard sizes for 500 g and 1000 g stollen are available and can be ordered directly in the webshop. In addition, Ebro Color develops custom-made stollen boxes for special sizes and individual branding – also in small quantities thanks to digital printing with food-safe inks.
What are Stollen Cartons?
Stollen cartons are special packaging boxes for Christstollen that combine protection, stability, and high-quality presentation. They are made from sturdy virgin fiberboard, suitable for food contact. Christstollen is a delicate product that needs careful protection during transport and storage. The carton preserves the loaf’s shape and prevents pressure marks. Typical forms include folding cartons with tuck-in flaps for lighter stollen and hinged lid or two-piece boxes for heavier ones. Optional viewing windows make the product visible at the point of sale. Printing on the carton serves as a branding tool, often with logos, Christmas motifs, or special finishes. Thus, Christmas stollen boxes are both functional and an important seasonal marketing element. Available in different sizes – 500 g and 1000 g as standards, larger weights as custom-made cartons. This makes the stollen carton an essential part of successful Christmas packaging.
Custom-Made Stollen Cartons
Custom-made stollen cartons are the right solution when standard sizes do not fit or a distinctive brand presence is required. Ebro Color develops cutting dies that match the exact dimensions of the stollen. This also allows secure packaging for larger stollen weighing 1500 g or 2000 g. Depending on weight, folding cartons with tuck-in flaps or hinged lid boxes are used. Inserts can be added to keep the loaf in place. Offset printing ensures precise branding in larger series. Digital printing with food-safe inks makes even small runs economical. Enhancements such as hot foil, embossing, or spot varnish add a premium touch. Every custom-made stollen box provides reliable protection, easy handling, and a strong visual impression.

For the most common weights – 500 g and 1000 g – proven standard folding cartons with tuck-in flaps are available. These can be configured and ordered directly in the webshop.
