Custom food jar labels, including jam jar labels, are printed for preserves, honey, chutneys, sauces and spice mixes. They are produced as lid labels and side labels in round, square or custom shapes, on materials that suit pantries and fridges.
Key features of food jar labels
- Lid labels and front or back jar labels in matching designs
- Waterproof vinyl or paper and kraft-style options
- Matte or gloss finish, with optional laminate
- Round, square, rectangle or custom shapes
- Rolls for applicators or sheets for hand labelling
Choosing a material for food jars
Jars face condensation, fridge storage and handling. Vinyl or laminated labels help resist moisture, while paper suits dry pantry jars. Test a sample on your own jar, as adhesion can vary between glass, plastic and metal lids.
Popular uses
- Jam, marmalade and preserves
- Honey and syrups
- Chutneys, pickles and sauces
- Spice mixes and nut butters
- Gift hampers and market stalls
Food jar label options
| Label | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lid label | Presenting your brand on top | Round, sized to the lid diameter |
| Side label | Name, flavour and branding | Sized to the flat area of the jar |
| Back label | Ingredients and information | Leave room for legal wording |
Food labelling responsibilities
Food labels in the UK usually need details such as the name of the food, ingredients with allergens, weight, date marking and producer information. Requirements vary by product, and the producer is responsible for correct wording.

Artwork Guide
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since 1966, when designers at Letraset and James Mosley, the librarian at St Bride Printing Library in London, took a 1914 Cicero translation and scrambled it to make dummy text for Letraset’s Body Type sheets. It has survived not only many decades, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised thanks to these sheets and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker and Microsoft Word including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
