Custom Bagel Bags
Gusseted bags for bagels and rolls
Starting around$0.210/eaConfigure for your priceBagels are sold by the half dozen and the dozen, which makes the bag a unit-of-sale decision as much as a packaging one. It has to hold the count you actually sell, stand up on a counter while it is being filled, and keep the crust from going soft before the customer gets it home. A gusseted paper bag does all three.

About Bagel Bags
A bagel bag is a gusseted paper bag with a side fold that expands as it fills. The gusset is what makes the format work here: a flat bag packed with a dozen bagels bulges awkwardly and tears at the seams, while a gusseted bag opens into volume and stands on the counter during loading.
The count you sell drives the size. A shop selling mostly singles needs a different bag from one whose business is dozens for offices and families, and most bagel shops end up stocking two sizes.
YaSeen manufactures your bags after you approve the design and pricing. Your size, paper, and artwork are recorded against your order, which makes repeat runs straightforward.
Sizes
Bagel bags are sized by count rather than weight, because a bagel order is a counted unit. These are the bands we manufacture most often.
| Size Band | Typical Order | Common Setting |
|---|---|---|
| Half dozen | 6 bagels | Counter sales, single customers |
| Dozen | 12 bagels | The most common bagel bag size |
| Large / bulk | More than a dozen | Offices, catering, family orders |
| Custom | Tell us your order profile | Confirmed with your quote |
Closure Options
Bagel shops usually choose between two closures depending on whether the bag leaves open or closed.
- Open top — the standard. Fast to pack and the customer carries it by the base or the top turn.
- Fold-over top — folds and tucks to hold the bagels in, useful for delivery and pre-packed orders.
- Tin tie — a bendable strip so the bag can be reclosed at home, which keeps the remaining bagels fresher.
- Window — a clear panel showing the bagels, which helps at a display counter.
Paper & Presentation
Bagel shops sit somewhere between a bakery and a deli, so the paper choice usually follows the shop's overall look rather than a packaging rule.
- Natural kraft — the traditional look for a bagel shop. Warm, unbleached, and it prints cleanly.
- White — brighter and more contemporary, with truer colour for detailed artwork.
- Grease-resistant grade — for buttered, egg-washed, or seeded bagels, confirmed with your quote.
- Custom brand colour — available by request.
Printing
Bagel bags are typically printed on one or both faces. Because the bag is usually carried with the printed face out, a strong single-face design often does all the work you need.
- One side — logo and name on the front face. The most common and most economical choice.
- Two sides — artwork on both faces, plus space for a menu, hours, or a catering prompt.
- Full coverage — artwork continuing across the gussets.
- Brand colour match — bags printed or sourced in your brand colour.
How Pricing Works
Bagel bag pricing depends on the size, the paper grade, the closure, whether a window is fitted, how much print coverage your artwork uses, and the quantity you run. A half-dozen bag and a dozen bag are different sizes at different unit prices.
Larger runs lower the cost per unit. Submit your configuration and a specialist returns pricing for your exact combination, including what the price covers — bag, window, printing, freight, and artwork setup.
Artwork Requirements
Supply vector artwork for the cleanest print result. Bagel bags are usually seen flat and stacked, so a bold, high-contrast design reads better than fine detail.
- Preferred: AI, EPS, SVG, or PDF — vector formats.
- Acceptable: PNG or JPG at high resolution.
- If you only have your logo, we can prepare the bag layout for you.
- A colour reference — hex code, Pantone number, or a physical sample — helps us match accurately.
Minimum Order Quantity
Minimums depend on the size, the paper, and the print setup your artwork requires. Tell us your target quantity in the configurator and we will confirm the actual minimum for your build.
Production & Delivery
These bags are custom manufactured after you approve the design and pricing — they are not pulled from stock. The sequence is: configure your specifications, receive a free digital mockup, approve the design and pricing, manufacturing begins, then the completed order is delivered nationwide.
Reordering
Because your size, paper, closure, and approved artwork are recorded against your order, reordering is a matter of confirming your previous configuration and quantity. Most bagel shops reorder on a predictable weekly or monthly cycle.

Production Time and Shipping Time Are Different
Production time is the time required to manufacture your packaging. Transit time is the time required to transport it to you. These are separate — a production window is not a delivery date, and every project's timeline is confirmed with your final quote.
Express
Best when speed matters most. Faster transportation may be available depending on the product, quantity, manufacturing location, shipment size, destination and carrier availability. Express transportation can cost significantly more than standard, and an exact transit time is confirmed with your freight quote.
Standard
Best when you want a balance between delivery cost and transit time. Standard freight is generally the more economical option when your schedule allows additional flexibility. Actual transit time and freight cost are confirmed with your final quote.
Large-volume freight
Larger orders are not handled as ordinary parcel shipments. Depending on size and destination this may involve palletized freight, LTL, air, ocean, partial-container (LCL) or full-container (FCL) arrangements. YaSeen determines the appropriate method for your actual project and quotes it accordingly.
Not sure
If you are unsure, our team will recommend the option that best fits your deadline, quantity and destination once your project has been reviewed.
