Trade tips

  • Hand-made wood, bamboo and pottery vary by a few mm: measure the workshop’s real blanks before fixing the label size.
  • Ceramic, leaves and bamboo are curved and uneven: use a paper label or sticker, with 4–5 mm clear round the text.
  • Paper labels do not like water: use plastic labels for fridges and bathrooms.
  • Matte lamination feels premium and softens colours by about a shade: add contrast in the design.

What is the bánh tét in banana leaves sample printed on?

The sample is paper decal 80 gsm with matte lamination.

Construction

Bánh tét is a long cylinder of sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves, tied with many loops of bamboo string or nylon cord, boiled for hours and drained; the printed packaging here is a paper band round the middle of the roll, glued at an overlap on the back. The band goes on after the cake has cooled and the leaves are wiped dry.

Choosing board and material

Label paper or 120–200 gsm coated paper with matt lamination resists moisture from the leaves; kraft paper gives a traditional look. The cake stays damp for days, so an unlaminated band softens and bleeds.

Finishing

Matt or gloss lamination, gold foil for gift bánh tét; one-colour print on kraft for small producers. If the band is a sticker applied straight to the leaves, use an adhesive that grips damp, curved surfaces.

Preparing the print file

A band round a roll of about Ø80 mm needs to be about 260–280 mm long (circumference plus 10–20 mm overlap) and 60–100 mm tall, sitting between two string loops. Put the producer, filling and expiry on the front half; with a short shelf life, leave a blank box for date stamping.

Common mistakes

  • A band taller than the gap between string loops: the strings press on it and it wrinkles and tears.
  • No expiry date: bánh tét keeps only a few days at room temperature, so buyers eat it past its date.
  • Banding while the cake is still wet: the paper absorbs water, puckers and the overlap lifts.

Questions and answers

How much does a Ø80 × 260 mm bánh tét weigh?

A roll this size is usually about 0.9–1.2 kg depending on how tightly it's packed and the filling; state the actual weight after boiling, not the weight of rice used.

Does a bánh tét band need Vietnam's Decree 37/2026 label details?

Bánh tét sold as packaged goods must be labelled under Decree 37/2026/NĐ-CP: name, net weight, production date, expiry, responsible producer and origin; the band is where that information goes.

How long does bánh tét keep?

Usually a few days at room temperature and longer refrigerated, depending on the filling; producers should state the production and expiry dates on the band.

What goes on a bánh tét paper band?

Producer, filling (mung bean and pork, banana, vegetarian), weight, production date, expiry, storage and the other mandatory goods label items.

How is bánh tét packed as a Tết gift?

The banded roll goes into a long paper box or handled paper bag; a window box shows off the green banana leaves.
