What are Custom Food Labels?
Custom food labels are printed labels for jars, bottles, boxes, bags, and cups. We print on FDA-safe BOPP, grease-safe paper, or freezer-grade vinyl. Every label carries your logo, flavor, allergen, and nutrition info. We make them factory-direct at wholesale from $0.05 per unit with a low MOQ and free US shipping.
Custom Food Labels: Key Facts
- Material: food-safe BOPP, grease-safe paper, or freezer-grade vinyl
- Sizes: 1 in cap seals, 3 in jar wraps, 4 x 6 in nutrition panels
- Formats: die-cut sheets or continuous rolls for auto-apply lines
- Minimum order: low MOQ — order small runs, sheets, or bulk rolls
- Production time: 8–10 business days (rush 5–7 available)
- Price: from $0.05 per unit at wholesale
- Shipping: free across the USA
A food label does more than brand a pack. It lists the flavor, the allergens, and the nutrition panel. Our custom food labels use stocks that are safe to touch fresh food. See the full custom labels range or pair with our bottle labels for a matched line.
FDA-Safe Stocks
All three of our food-label stocks are safe to touch fresh food. BOPP is a thin plastic film that resists water and oil. Grease-safe paper stays clean on butter, bacon, and pastry packs. Freezer-grade vinyl holds through frost and thaw cycles. Ask us which stock fits your storage temp and pack type.
Allergen and Nutrition Panels
US retail food packs need clear allergen callouts and a nutrition panel. Our labels print small text at 6 point and up with sharp edges, which fits the FDA font-size rule. Add a bold allergen line, a barcode, and a lot code. Send the panel copy as a PDF or a Word file and we lay it out for free.
Adhesive Types: Permanent, Freezer-Grade, and Grease-Safe
The glue matters as much as the print. We stock three tiers built for food packs:
- Permanent adhesive — bonds for the long haul. Best for jars, cans, and sealed retail packs.
- Freezer-grade adhesive — grips through frost and thaw on ice-cream tubs and frozen meals.
- Grease-safe adhesive — holds on oily bags, wax paper, and pastry boxes.
Artwork File Prep & Design Tips
Send vector art in AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG. Set colors to CMYK. Outline the fonts. Keep key text a quarter inch clear of the cut edge. Nutrition panels must use a legible sans-serif at 6 point or larger. No print-ready file? Send a rough logo and a copy sheet. Our design team builds a print-ready proof for free.
Sizes & Dimensions
Every order is made to your pack spec. These are popular starting sizes:
| Pack / Use | Popular Size | Best Format |
|---|---|---|
| Cap seal | 1 × 1 in | Round die-cut |
| Jam / jar | 2 × 3 in | Front + back BOPP |
| Bakery box | 3 × 3 in | Square die-cut |
| Sauce bottle | 3 × 4 in | Wrap-around BOPP |
| Nutrition panel | 4 × 6 in | Rectangle BOPP |
| Coffee bag | 4 × 4 in | Grease-safe paper |
| Auto-apply roll | 3 in wide × 1000 count | Continuous roll |
Pick a size that fits the pack and leaves room for the panel copy. Our design team will tune the label and layout for you at no charge.
Popular Use Cases by Industry
- Food & drink — jars, sauce, oil, coffee bags, snack packs.
- Bakery — box marks, cupcake tags, allergen callouts.
- Beverage — craft beer, kombucha, cold brew, soda.
- Retail — ice cream tubs, frozen meals, ready-eat packs.
- Healthcare — supplement bottles, meal-replacement bars.
Care & Application Tips
A food label sticks best on a clean, dry pack. Wipe the pack with a lint-free cloth. Peel one corner, press it down, and smooth from center to edge. Let it sit for 24 hours before you freeze or chill it. Freezer-grade and BOPP labels take frost, thaw cycles, and full sun without lifting.

Are custom food labels FDA-safe?
Yes. All three of our food-label stocks are safe to touch fresh food. BOPP resists water and oil. Grease-safe paper stays clean on butter and pastry packs. Freezer-grade vinyl holds through frost and thaw. Ask us which stock fits your pack type.
Can I add a nutrition panel to a custom food label?
Yes. Our labels print small text at 6 point and up with sharp edges, which fits the FDA font-size rule for nutrition and allergen panels. Send the copy as a PDF or Word file and we lay it out for free on the label.
Do you offer freezer-grade adhesive?
Yes. Our freezer-grade adhesive grips through frost and thaw on ice-cream tubs, frozen meals, and cold cases. It stays put through condensation and stack-load in a walk-in freezer without lifting or fading over time.
Are food labels grease-safe?
Yes. Ask for our grease-safe paper or BOPP stock with a grease-safe adhesive. That combo holds on oily bags, wax paper, and pastry boxes without lifting. It stays clean and readable even through a warm delivery bag.
What is the minimum order for custom food labels?
Our MOQ is low. Small brands can start with as few as 100 pieces per design and reorder as sales grow. Bigger runs bring the per-unit price down fast. There is no die or setup fee on any custom food label order.
How much do custom food labels cost?
Custom food labels start at $0.05 per unit at wholesale. Your price depends on size, count, stock, and finish. Ask for a free quote and we send factory-direct pricing within one business day.
