Dressing up your food bags

Cellophane food bags may look pretty plain, but that is precisely one of their main benefits. Unlike other packaging materials in which you don’t exactly know what are contained inside, cellophane food bags give you instant visual access.

In any case, if you do want to put a little bit more color into your presentation, cellophane food bags are pretty easy to dress up. Even the plainest looking cellophane food bags can be made to look a lot more impressive simply by adding a colorful ribbon tied in a bow. Add a greeting card with a heartfelt message or mote of appreciation, and you have a gift pack that anyone would surely love to receive.

If that isn't enough, you can also purchase cellophane food bags in a wide array of different colors and printed designs. From simple, subtly colored patterns to more outrageous colors and designs, there are cellophane food bags available to suit every taste and occasion.

Types of food bags
