Snack Gift Boxes for Snack Foods in Colorado
Dried fruit and snack boxes serve the better-for-you snack category's most naturally nutritious product segment -- the dried mango, dried cranberries, raisins, medjool dates, and specialty dried fruits that provide natural sweetness, fiber, and micronutrients from whole food fruit ingredients. Dried fruit packaging must communicate the fruit's origin, the drying method, and any added sugar or preservative status that health-conscious consumers evaluate when selecting dried fruit products.
Added Sugar and Sulfite Communication for Dried Fruit
Dried fruit packaging communicates two key processing disclosures: added sugar status (many commercial dried cranberries and other tart fruits add sugar during drying to compensate for natural tartness -- added sugar must appear in the Nutrition Facts added sugars line and in the ingredient list) and sulfite preservation (sulfur dioxide or sulfites are commonly used to preserve the natural color of dried apricots, dried pineapple, and other light-colored fruits -- sulfites must be declared in the ingredient list and may require an allergy warning for sulfite-sensitive consumers).
Dried Fruit Origin and Variety Communication
Premium dried fruit packaging communicates the specific fruit variety and geographic origin as quality differentiators: medjool dates (Morocco or California origin, the premium date variety distinct from common deglet noor dates), Turkish Malatya apricots (considered the world's finest drying apricots -- origin communication justifies premium pricing), Chilean dried mango (specific varietal and origin), and organic Thompson seedless raisins (variety and growing method communication). Origin communication for dried fruit parallels wine's appellation system in creating the terroir narrative that premium pricing requires.
Dried Fruit Health Claim and Added Sugar Navigation
Dried fruit's natural sugar content creates a specific FDA nutrition communication challenge: dried fruit is high in natural sugars (from concentration during drying) but also provides fiber, vitamins, and minerals from the whole fruit. Packaging must accurately represent total sugars (naturally occurring from fruit) and added sugars (any sugar added during processing) separately in the Nutrition Facts panel per FDA's 2016 Nutrition Facts updates. The added sugars line specifically communicates whether the product's sweetness comes from the fruit itself or from added sugar.

Snack Gift Boxes in Colorado — FAQs
What FDA labeling is required for dried fruit packaging?
Dried fruit packaging requires FDA food labeling: Nutrition Facts panel (including the added sugars line required since 2016 FDA update -- must accurately reflect any added sugar beyond naturally occurring fruit sugars), ingredient list (fruit only for unsweetened varieties; fruit plus sugar for sweetened varieties; sulfur dioxide or potassium sorbate for preserved varieties), net weight, allergen declarations (tree nuts for mixed dried fruit with nut inclusions, sulfites must be declared if present in concentration of 10 ppm or more), and manufacturer information.
What sulfite warning is required on dried fruit packaging?
Sulfite declaration for dried fruit: when sulfites (sulfur dioxide, sodium bisulfite, sodium metabisulfite, potassium bisulfite, potassium metabisulfite) are present at 10 ppm or more in the finished product, they must be declared in the ingredient list by name (contains: sulfur dioxide or sulfites). Additionally, some dried fruits with sulfite content carry a warning for sulfite-sensitive individuals. Sulfite sensitivity affects a small percentage of the population (particularly individuals with asthma) and can cause severe reactions -- packaging that accurately declares sulfite content prevents inadvertent exposure for sensitive individuals.
What no-sugar-added dried cranberry claims are permissible?
No added sugar dried cranberry claims: traditional dried cranberries add significant sugar during processing to compensate for the cranberry's natural extreme tartness. Unsweetened or no-added-sugar dried cranberries use alternative sweeteners (apple juice, pineapple juice, monk fruit) or accept the natural tartness without sweetening. No sugar added dried cranberry claim requires that no sugar or sugar-containing ingredient was added -- juice concentrate sweeteners may qualify as no added sugar or may not depending on the specific juice concentrate used. The added sugars line in Nutrition Facts will show 0g for truly unsweetened products.
What fruit snack vs. dried fruit distinction affects packaging labeling?
Fruit snack vs. dried fruit distinction: fruit snacks (gummy-style chewy snacks with fruit flavoring -- typically made from fruit juice concentrate, corn syrup, and gelatin) are regulated differently from whole dried fruit. Fruit snacks must declare fruit juice concentrate in the ingredient list and cannot claim to be fresh or whole fruit. Dried whole fruit (actual fruit pieces dried to reduce moisture content) maintains the whole food nutritional profile. Packaging that implies dried fruit benefits for fruit snack products made from fruit juice concentrate and corn syrup may be misleading.
What is the minimum order for custom dried fruit and snack boxes?
Our minimum order is 100 units for custom dried fruit and snack boxes. Dried fruit retail programs typically run 500-2,000 units per SKU. Organic and premium dried fruit brand programs at 100-unit minimums are accessible for specialty food brands.
Do you make sustainable packaging for Colorado natural products brands?
Yes. We offer FSC-certified paperboard, recycled content corrugated, soy-based inks, and compostable coating options specifically for Colorado's natural products, wellness, and organic food brands.
Do you produce compliant cannabis packaging for Colorado businesses?

What Colorado cities do you deliver custom boxes to?
We deliver free to all Colorado addresses including Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Aurora, Lakewood, Thornton, Pueblo, Grand Junction, and all mountain communities.
Can Colorado craft beverage companies get custom boxes?
