Candy Tin Sizes & Lid Styles

31 round SKUs span Ø65 mm to Ø168 mm, in heights from 25 mm to 135 mm — the same dimensional range mapped in the Tin Round Box Guide: Names. Up through Ø95 mm, pick a flat lid or a clear window lid that shows the candy or chocolate inside for shelf merchandising. Ø100 mm and larger ship flat-lid only.

Diameter Range Height Range Lid Options
Ø65–95 mm 25–120 mm Flat or Window
Ø100–135 mm 40–135 mm Flat only
Ø168 mm 50–80 mm Flat only

Built for Chocolate & Confectionery Packaging

Tinplate steel resists the crushing and denting that paperboard boxes take in transit, and a metal tin gets reused as a keepsake long after the candy is gone. Both qualities support retail shelf presence.

Lids seal by friction fit, not a gasket. For chocolate that needs longer freshness, add an inner poly bag or foil wrap before closing the lid. Brands packaging coffee or tea alongside their candy line can pair this with tea and coffee packaging from the same tinplate program.

Custom Decoration: Embossing, Printing & Finishes

Bodies and lids support several decoration and finish options:

  • Decoration

    Embossing or debossing, self-adhesive labels, screen printing, laser marking, and full-color printing.

  • Finishes

    Matte, glossy, frosted, metallic, and lacquered surfaces.

  • Artwork & Tooling Review

    Bold shapes emboss more cleanly than fine detail, and vector artwork (AI, EPS, or vector PDF) speeds tooling. Tooling cost and pattern depth are quoted only after DOLYPACK reviews your container drawing and artwork.

FAQ

Where can I buy a tin box?
For custom or bulk quantities, source directly from a manufacturer rather than a retail shelf — DOLYPACK quotes round candy tins by size, lid style, and decoration, with samples available before you commit to a production run.
What’s the minimum order for a custom tin candy box?
There’s no single fixed number: low-touch decoration like a label or laser mark starts smaller, while full-color printing or die-cut work needs more tooling and volume to justify setup. Share your size, decoration, and quantity for an exact figure.
Sourcing Process — Samples, Tooling & Quoting

MOQ and production timing are not fixed across the catalog. Low-touch decoration such as a label or laser mark starts smaller and moves faster than full-color printing or die-cut work, which needs more tooling and volume to justify setup. The trade-offs are broken down in the wholesale tin container guide.

A physical sample ships before mass production, catching print, fit, and finish issues before you commit to a run. Send your target size, decoration, and quantity for an exact MOQ and timeline.
