Common Questions
Q: Will these bags fit a standard French baguette?
A: Yes! A traditional French baguette is typically 24-26 inches long, but American-style baguettes from home ovens are usually 14-16 inches — these 18-inch bags fit them perfectly with room for a twist-tie closure at the top.
Q: Are these bags food safe for selling bread at farmers markets?
A: Absolutely. These polyethylene bags are FDA food-contact compliant, making them safe for direct contact with bread, pastries, and other baked goods.
Q: Can I heat seal these bags or do I need twist ties?
A: Either works! These poly bags heat seal easily with a standard impulse sealer, or you can use twist ties, tape, or stickers for a quick, no-equipment closure.
