Ordering, Shipping, Returns & Exchanges
Can I cancel my order?
We completely get it, we change our minds too! While we wish could, once an order is placed, we are unable to alter or cancel it at this time. We hope to have a cancellation window one day in the future.
Should the item(s) not work out, make sure to exchange for a preferred style or return for a refund. As a reminder, domestic return shipping is free.
What is your shipping policy?
We ship within the United States only. Most orders are processed and shipped within 24 hours, though larger or high-volume orders may take 1-3 business days to process. Once shipped, standard delivery typically takes 3-6 business days. You'll get a tracking email as soon as your order ships.
Do you ship to Canada?
We currently ship within the United States only. International shipping costs make standard Canada shipping too expensive for us to offer by default. That said, if you need a special order shipped to Canada, contact us at info@sweetdegreeskitchen.com and we'll see what we can work out.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders are processed and shipped within 24 hours (larger or high-volume orders may take 1-3 business days to process). Once your order ships, standard delivery within the US typically takes 3-6 business days. You'll get a tracking email as soon as it's on its way.
Do the boxes come assembled or flat?
The boxes ship flat to help reduce shipping costs and are quick and easy to assemble.
Why is the shipping cost so much?
Shipping costs are based on the weight and size of the package. Our cake boxes are large and bulky, which means they take up more space and weigh more than a typical package, this is reflected in the shipping rate charged by the carrier. We have no control over these costs and do not profit from shipping. If you are ordering multiple items, message us and we can look into combining your shipment to get you the best rate possible.
What is your return policy?
We offer a 15-day return window from your purchase date. Items must be unused, in original packaging, with a receipt or proof of purchase. Sale items are final sale and can't be refunded. If an item arrives defective or damaged, we'll replace it, just report it within 15 days of delivery. Customers are responsible for return shipping costs. Contact us atinfo@sweetdegreeskitchen.comto start a return or exchange.
Do you ship overseas?
Currently, we do not ship overseas due to the high shipping costs for bulky items.
What if I receive a damaged package?
Please take photos of the damaged package before opening it, as well as photos of any damaged items inside. Send the photos to us so we can file a claim with the shipping carrier. We will either replace the damaged item or issue a refund.
Product Information
What size should I buy?
If you’re not quite sure which size is right for you, refer to our size guides. They’re located underneath the available sizes for each of our products.
Are your cake boxes food-safe?
Yes! All our clear cake boxes are made from premium food-safe PET plastic that is BPA-free and approved for direct contact with food.
How do I assemble the boxes?
Our boxes ship flat and assemble in seconds, with no tape or tools needed. Peel the protective film off the plastic and lid, fold along the pre-scored creases, then snap the pieces together to form a secure wall and base. Watch our quickassembly video on YouTubeto see exactly how it comes together.
How do I know what size cake box I need?
Measure your cake board width first, then add extra room for height, since frosting, flowers, toppers, and tiers all need clearance. OurCake Size Guidewalks you through matching box dimensions to your cake so you get the right fit every time.
How many cupcakes fit in your cupcake boxes?
It depends on the box. We offer inserts for 4, 6, 12, and 24 cupcakes, plus mini cupcake boxes in 12 or 24-count. Check each product page for the exact cupcake count and insert size.

Yes, most of our cake boxes come with a cake board included. To be sure for your specific box, check the product page and description before ordering, or contact us if you have any questions.

Cardboard boxes hide your cake until it's opened. Clear cake boxes let your decorating show through during pickup, delivery, and presentation, with no guessing and no surprises for your customer. Read our full comparison:Clear Cake Boxes vs Cardboard.

Why doesn’t the clear part look clear?
Your box has a protective film to prevent scratches during shipping. Before assembling, peel the film from both sides of each clear panel and from the inside of the lid. Once removed, your box will be crystal clear and fully see-through. If the film is left on, the panels may appear cloudy or foggy.

Our boxes ship flat, so they're easy to store in bulk before you need them, with no bulky pre-assembled boxes taking up shelf space. Just keep them flat until you're ready to use one, then assemble in seconds.
