What We're Loving — Claudine Hellmuth Retro Party Favor Packaging

Just another reason to bake up some delicious treats: Introducing the adorable printable paper baked goods and party favor boxes, courtesy of Claudine Hellmuth, artist and illustrator of all of the designs, available at Etsy. These endearing packages may have just revolutionized gift packaging. Sorry, conventional paper baggies.

Although this company produces a wide variety of products, from paper wallets to gift card holders, their most popular sellers are their oven cupcake boxes and ice pop party favor boxes, which are both flying off the shelves. There are multiple colors to choose from and the entire kit, complete with a cupcake tray, cupcake flags, and oven mitt gift tags, is only $4.99. All you have to do is buy online, print out the purchased 19-page high resolution PDF form of designs sent to you via email, and easily assemble the boxes. Also included are a guide to materials needed for assembly, thorough directions, and even a video tutorial for extra assistance.

Your guests will squeal with delight as they exit your party with a mini oven in hand, and then open the handle to find a freshly "baked" cupcake inside.
