These boxes are perfect for giving candy, small soaps/lotions, homemade cookies, well really anything you can fit within the 3-1/4" x 3-1/8" x 2-1/4" box space (with the backing the boxes are approximately 7" tall)! The boxes can store flat as well making them easy to have on hand and it is compatible with both the 8x12 and 12x12 mats.
