Brilliant Branded Packaging for Mór Bakehouse
Mor Bakehouse Blog image

Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh lies Mór Bakehouse, a culinary gem celebrated for its homemade delights. With three locations across the city, the bakery, deli and coffee shop prides itself on its delicious pastries, pies, sausage rolls, and freshly made wraps and baguettes, made with only the best locally sourced Scottish ingredients. Their coffee deserves an honourable mention, too — serving their own artisanal blend from local coffee roasters. 

In 2022, Mór Bakehouse approached the team at Takeaway Packaging as they wanted a branded packaging experience that resonated with their brand. We were all too happy to deliver on competitive prices, fast delivery, and a commitment to eco-friendly products that met and exceeded the demands of Mór Bakehouse’s thriving business.

Keep reading to learn how we collaborated and helped craft distinctive branded packaging for bakery products that are as practical as they are useful.

What Packaging Does a Bakery and Deli Need?

With a diverse range of food and drink available for takeaway and delivery services like Deliveroo and Just Eat, Mór Bakehouse needs a variety of bakery packaging to keep their food fresh and easy to eat while on the go. Let’s dive in and take a look:

Coffee Cups:

Coffee cups are essential for any coffee shop, and choosing to brand them is a clever, low-cost way to introduce branded packaging to your business. Mór Bakehouse chose a simple yet eye-catching style of a black coffee cup with their brand name in contrasting bold white letters to the front, making it instantly recognisable.

If you’re looking for branded coffee cups for your business, It’s super easy to order from us. Delivery is fast, and the quality of our sustainable cups is second to none. You can even choose from white or black eco-friendly lids to complement any style.

Greaseproof Paper

Mór Bakehouse uses printed greaseproof paper to line trays for sweet and savoury delights and wrap other takeout items like toasties, burgers and muffins. For this product, they opted for white paper, and their brand name and logo are in black, dotted across the paper. This simple yet distinguishable design means that their brand is always right and centre when customers are enjoying their tasty treats. 

Printed greaseproof paper is another fast and effective way to showcase your brand in-store and when selling takeouts. As an added benefit, it’s even 100% biodegradable.

Stickers

Branded stickers can be used to unify your off-the-shelf packaging and are often a great starting point for small businesses looking to implement branded items. We love Mór Bakehouse’s choice to print their logo in sticker form and how they use it to add an identifiable touch to otherwise plain sandwich bags and bakery packaging.  

Stickers are so versatile that they can be applied to cups, bowls, sandwich bags, takeout bags and food containers. Not to mention, they’re also cost-effective!

Greaseproof Bags

Greaseproof bags are a convenient way to dish up freshly baked goods, hot pasties or warm baguettes. Mór Bakehouse put their brand front and centre with white greaseproof bags and a large black logo showing everyone exactly where they can get the tastiest treats in town. 

While minimum order quantities are higher than the products above, they prove cost-effective when ordered in bulk and are a great marketing tool for your business.

Kraft Bowls

Kraft bowls are perfect for serving up Mór Bakehouse’s fresh and healthy pasta and salads. They can be used for both hot and cold foods, making them a highly versatile solution for their many delicious food options. 

Kraft bowls look stylish on their own, thanks to their rustic and modern appeal, but we think they look even better printed with the Mór Bakehouse logo, which ties in with the rest of their takeaway packaging perfectly.

Everything you need for a Coffee Shop Pt 3

We hope you’re ready for part 3 of ‘Everything you need for a Coffee Shop’! Today we are going to focus on the extra packaging items you might find useful for your coffee shop!

Tip #7 Napkins!

Napkins are a really important packaging item for any coffee shop! Whether you’re ordering bespoke or stock, it’s important to remember to stock up. There are many different styles and sizes of napkin to choose from. Here’s a brief breakdown.

PLY

Napkins - Takeaway Packaging

The ply of a napkin refers to the number of layers the napkin is produced from. When purchasing napkins, you’ll usually find that the napkin is 1 Ply, 2 Ply or 3 Ply. The higher the Ply the thicker the napkin.

MATERIAL

The most popular napkin material used in coffee shops is paper. This is mainly because paper napkins are disposable. Environmentally conscious businesses use often use unbleached napkins made up of recycled paper.

SIZE & COLOUR

A Slice Of Cake On Napkins

The possibilities are endless when it comes to colour. When designing your own napkins, you can create your napkin in as many colours as you wish and print them with your logos or artwork. For size, anything from 21cm x 30.5cm to 48cm x 48cm are available. You can also purchase napkins for use in dispensers.

Tip #8 Will you need some cutlery?

If you’re serving food at your coffee shop, whether it be cakes or pastries or sandwiches, it’s also wise to stock some cutlery. There are quite a few different options available to you for cutlery, find out more below

MATERIAL

Wooden

Wooden Cutlery

Hard wooden cutlery is produced from renewable resources and is recyclable and biodegradable. Wooden cutlery is less likely to snap that plastic cutlery.

PLASTIC

Takeaway Packaging - Plastic Cutlery
Plastic Cutlery

With plastic cutlery, you can either go for a cheaper, thinner plastic that is prone to snapping, or you can choose a heavy-duty plastic (like the kind you’ll find in McDonalds). Plastic cutlery is available in a range of colours. Please note that plastic cutlery is not biodegradable or compostable.

Bioplastic PLA

Bioplastic Cutlery

Bioplastic PLA cutlery gives the same physical appearance of heavy-duty plastic cutlery, but it is completely biodegradable and compostable. View our range of Bioplastic Cutlery here.

You’ll also need to decide what cutlery items are best suited for your shop. Knives, Forks and Stirrers are essential, but will you also need Spoons or Tablespoons?

Tip #9 Bags anyone?

Takeaway bags will always come in useful if you’re serving food at your coffee shop. Here are some popular bag designs for cafes and delis.

SOS Grab Bag

Grab Bag

The small size of grab bags makes them great for sandwiches, cakes and pastries. As the name suggests, they are usually used for grab and options. These bags can be branded with your artwork and logos and are also available unbranded. Brand your bags online here.

SOS Tape (or Twist) Handle

SOS Tape Handle Bag
Tape Handle Bag

The SOS style bag is most commonly used by coffee shops, bakeries and deli. Its structure allows for small takeaway boxes and soup cups to sit level inside. These bags can also be branded (see above). For this style of bag, you can either have twists or a tape handle. You can purchase stock bags in a variety of sizes, or you can brand your own and choose your own size. Many shops often have several sizes, but this is entirely down to the nature of your business.

Tip #10 Cup Carriers & Sleeves

Finally, cup carriers & sleeves! These items are completely optional, but we do recommend you offer your customers sleeves if serving drinks in single wall cups.

SLEEVES

If you are using unbranded cups, branding your sleeves is a cheaper alternative to getting your name out there. Sleeves can be fully branded with your logo, artwork and colours.

CUP CARRIERS

Cup carriers are handy for customers buying lots of drinks, they come in a variety of structures, see below.
