In 2012 I began to play around with alternate egg packing arrangements. The Baker’s Dozen™ egg carton is the result.

Our structural packaging design uses a close-packed hexagonal arrangement, adding one more egg to the traditional 12-pack, making it a perfect “baker’s dozen.”

For its logo I designed a typographic “ambiguous illusion” similar to the idea of the Baskin Robbins 31 Flavors logo. Although I do think there’s something a little more self-contained about a baker’s dozen being 13. I mean, someday Baskin Robbins might want to add or take away some flavors, but a “baker’s dozen” will always be exactly 13. (even if we don’t remember exactly why)

Update: the Baker’s Dozen Egg Carton is now a real thing!

In 2015 we partnered with Willow Valley Farms in Nebraska and formed Baker’s Dozen Egg Cartons, LLC. It took us nearly 7 years, but Baker’s Dozen Egg Cartons are now for sale at bakersdozeneggcartons.com !
