Default Cupcake Box Die

I'm on the hunt for a box die that (assembled) will hold an actual cupcake. Wafer thin, steel rule - doesn't matter. Any size of die do will do. I also don't really care what the box looks like or what shape it is, as long as it will hold a cupcake w/o it shifting.


I've used the search words "cupcake die" searches at:
Taylored Expressions
Ellen Hutson
Impression Obsession
Spellbinders
Papertrey
Sizzix (they come close to the right size, but I need something w/a platform that will hold the cupcake in place)
Simon Says Stamp
MFT
Lawn Fawn
Oozak
Avery Elle

Plenty of dies to cut flat cupcake die cuts, but no box. Not yet, anyway.

Was I imagining having seen such a thing? Or is there one out there evading me?

Will the We-R-Memory Keepers box punchboard make the size you want?

Thx for the input, Crafter 4 Life. I'm keeping that idea in my back pocket. If I go that route, then I need to rig something to hold the cupcake steady inside the box. Shouldn't be too hard , but I need several, so I was hoping for the ease of a die.

Thanks, Stampnnatter. 'Preciate the input. Every time I find a SU rep, she quits. I know they are good products, though.

UnderstandBlue, this is just what I'm looking for (why didn't that come up via a search on the Sizzix site? so bizarre). I've been researching it since you posted the link. I want to make sure it's big enough for those bakery cupcakes w/all the frosting.

I have a box from my bakery; they use a clamshell-style one. I've looked online where I buy my clear envelopes, boxes for cards, etc. They have a couple of choices, and the sizes look pretty similar to the die you posted.

I think it will work, as long as the finished size doesn't include the top of the handle (I need the extra measurement in the box itself). I'm going to give it a shot; thank you so much for finding it for me.
