A heated stamp carrying your logo is pressed into the wood, so the mark is burned into the surface in a warm brown tone. There is no ink and no label: the mark is part of the wood itself, so nothing can rub off or transfer to food.
| HEAT-STAMPED | PRINTED WITH INK | |
|---|---|---|
| What makes the mark | Heat, burned into the wood | An ink layer on the surface |
| Wear | Cannot rub off | Can wear or scratch |
| Food contact | Only wood touches the food | The ink sits on the surface that touches food |
| Colour | One warm brown tone | Can be printed in colour |
On the wood we heat-stamp only, so no ink touches any stick, spoon or fork. The one printed item is the optional logo on the paper wrapper of our 75 mm wrapped spoon.
Solid shapes and thick lines stamp more cleanly than fine detail, thin outlines or gradients.
The mark comes out as a single brown tone. If your logo has a one-colour version, send that one.
Very small lettering can fill in on wood. Your name or wordmark reads best when it is kept large.
We confirm the size and placement of your logo on samples before production, so there are no surprises.
Our wooden ice cream sticks (93mm and 114mm), disposable wooden spoons from 95 to 160 mm and our 160mm fork, knife and spork can all be heat-stamped. On spoons and cutlery the logo usually runs along the handle.
Branded orders start from 10 cartons and can be done quickly; your quotation confirms the lead time. The 75 mm wrapped spoon is not heat-stamped: we print your logo on its paper wrapper instead, and your quotation confirms the minimum for printed wrappers.
| MINIMUM BRANDED ORDER | |
|---|---|
| 93mm and 114mm ice cream sticks | 10 cartons (100,000 sticks) |
| 95 to 160 mm spoons | 10 cartons (100,000 spoons) |
| 75 mm wrapped ice cream spoon (printed wrapper, not heat-stamped) | Confirmed in your quotation |

10 cartons for heat-stamped products: 100,000 ice cream sticks, or 100,000 spoons for our 95 to 160 mm sizes. Unbranded orders start from one carton. For printed wrappers on the 75 mm spoon, your quotation confirms the minimum.
No. The 75 mm wrapped spoon is not heat-stamped. Instead, we can print your logo on the paper wrapper around each spoon; the spoon itself stays plain wood.
Branding can be done quickly. Your quotation confirms the lead time for your order, after you approve the samples.
No. Heat-stamping burns the logo into the wood in a single brown tone, with no inks. If your logo has a one-colour version, that is the best one to send.
