The larger 9 x 9" format makes these boxes particularly useful where you need more room than a standard chip or burger box.

Ideal for:

• Fish & chips
• Burgers with chips
• Loaded fries
• Chicken & chips
• Rice dishes
• Curry & rice
• Pasta dishes
• Street food
• Breakfasts
• Jacket potatoes with sides

The generous footprint also gives businesses greater flexibility when serving meals containing several different components.

What Is Bagasse?

Bagasse is the fibrous material remaining after juice is extracted from sugarcane.

The fibres can be moulded into rigid foodservice packaging, including plates, bowls and takeaway clamshell boxes.

This gives bagasse packaging its distinctive natural appearance while providing the structure needed for food-to-go service.

Convenient One-Piece Clamshell Design

The hinged clamshell design combines the base and lid in one piece, so staff don't need to find and match separate lids during service.

Simply fill the container, close the lid and prepare the order for collection or delivery.

For high-volume takeaway businesses, this straightforward format can make packaging quicker and simplify the number of separate components that need to be stored around the service area.

Designed for Larger Takeaway Portions

One of the main advantages of a 9 x 9" meal box is flexibility.

Rather than being limited to one specific food, the larger footprint can accommodate a wide variety of menu combinations.

This makes it particularly useful for businesses with changing menus, specials or several different meal options that can use the same packaging.

9 x 9" Meal Box vs Smaller Clamshell – Which Do I Need?

Choosing the right takeaway box isn't simply about picking the largest container.

Smaller Clamshell Boxes

Smaller clamshells are better suited to chips, burgers, sides and smaller individual portions.

They're compact and can help prevent businesses from using unnecessarily large packaging for smaller orders.

9 x 9" Meal Boxes

A larger 9 x 9" meal box is better suited to complete meals and generous portions where several food components need to fit inside one container.

Think burger and chips, fish and chips, chicken and sides, rice-based dishes and larger street-food portions.

Matching the box to your actual serving size can improve presentation while also helping control packaging usage.

How Do I Know if 9 x 9" Is the Right Size?

The best approach is to test the container with your actual menu portion.

Don't rely on dimensions alone.

Consider:

• How much food is normally served?
• Does the food need room around it?
• Are several components being packed together?
• Can the lid close without compressing the food?
• Will the meal still look appealing when the customer opens it?
• How will the box fit inside your takeaway or delivery bags?

A container that's too large can make a normal portion appear undersized, while a box that's too small may be difficult to close properly.

Love Tiki Expert Tip

Before changing takeaway packaging, run a simple real-world packing test.

Prepare one of your most popular meals exactly as you would for a customer. Place it in the box, close it and leave it packed for approximately the same amount of time as your normal collection or delivery journey.

Then open it again.

Check the food presentation, lid closure, container condition and how well the portion fits.

Doing this with two or three of your most popular dishes is one of the easiest ways to establish whether a new takeaway box is right for your business.

Takeaway & Delivery Considerations

For collection orders, the large clamshell format provides a convenient way to keep a complete meal together.

For delivery, remember that the container is only one part of the overall packaging setup.

You should also consider:

• How securely the box closes
• How it sits inside your takeaway bag
• Whether multiple boxes can be transported without excessive movement
• The typical journey time
• The temperature and moisture content of the food
• Whether sauces should be packed separately

With freshly cooked hot food, steam can continue to build once the container is closed. This is particularly relevant for fried foods, where journey time can affect the condition of the food on arrival.

Understanding Bagasse Packaging

Bagasse is a plant-fibre material widely used for moulded foodservice packaging.

When communicating environmental benefits to customers, it's important to be precise rather than assuming every bagasse product has identical disposal requirements.

Always follow the specific product certification and your commercial waste provider's guidance when deciding which waste stream the packaging should enter.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is the Bagasse Meal Box?

This is a 9 x 9" meal box, providing a generous format for complete takeaway meals and larger portions.

How many boxes are supplied?

Each case contains 200 meal boxes.

What is bagasse?

Bagasse is a fibrous material produced during sugarcane processing. The fibre can be moulded into foodservice packaging such as takeaway boxes, plates and bowls.

What foods can I serve in a 9 x 9" meal box?

The generous format makes it useful for fish & chips, burgers and fries, chicken meals, rice dishes, street food and many other complete takeaway meals.

Always make sure the particular food and serving conditions are appropriate for the packaging.

Is the lid included?

Yes. This is a hinged clamshell design, so the lid is integrated with the base rather than being purchased separately.

Is this better than a smaller chip box?

It depends on your portion. A smaller box is generally better for chips, sides and compact meals, while a 9 x 9" container provides more room for complete meals and larger portions.

Can I use it for delivery?

The clamshell format can be used as part of a takeaway or delivery packaging setup. Suitability will depend on your particular food, journey time and how the complete order is packed.

Is bagasse the same as cardboard?

No. Bagasse is a moulded plant-fibre material derived from sugarcane processing, whereas cardboard is normally manufactured from paper-based fibres.

Is the box compostable?

Bagasse products are commonly associated with compostable foodservice packaging, but the current Love Tiki listing does not provide a specific composting certification or disposal specification for this product. Check the manufacturer's specification before making a specific compostability claim.

What is the product code?

The Love Tiki SKU is 10377.99.

Complete Your Takeaway Packaging Setup

Pair these 9 x 9" Bagasse Meal Boxes with napkins, wooden takeaway cutlery, greaseproof paper, sauce pots and takeaway bags to create a complete food-to-go packaging setup.

For businesses serving several portion sizes, consider stocking a smaller bagasse clamshell alongside the 9 x 9" meal box. This allows staff to match the packaging more closely to each order rather than using the same large container for every meal.
