Give Every Product a Tag With a Colored Core
On a crowded rack, this is the tag that earns a second look. Layer cake hangtags start at $33.72 for 50, rated 4.9 out of 5 across 61 reviews. It is a thick tag cut from layered stock, with a colored core sandwiched between the printed outer layers, so a bright stripe of color shows along every cut edge. Tagging apparel in a boutique, pricing a shelf, or dressing up a gift, that colored edge does half the branding before anyone reads a word.
These tags punch above their size. They print full color on a heavy stock, the drilled hole means they ship ready to hang, and the striped edge is a detail cheaper tags simply do not have. Want to see how layer cake sits next to the rest of the lineup? Browse every style on hang tags printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 50 starts at $33.72, and the per-tag cost keeps sliding as the count goes up, so a full run for a season or a product launch costs far less per tag than a quick test batch.

What Are Layer Cake Hangtags?
Layer cake hangtags are thick hang tags cut from layered stock, with a colored center core that shows as a stripe along every cut edge. At 4OVER4 they print full color in 6 sizes, from a 2" x 2" square up to a 2" x 6" tag, on 4 heavy covers, with the size, core color, ink and hanging hole all set in the live configurator.
The name comes from the edge. Stack a colored core between two printed outer layers, cut the tag, and the core shows through like the filling in a slice of cake. That bright line of color turns an ordinary product tag into something people notice and keep. You print your logo and details full color on the front, pick the core color that pops against your brand, choose the size and the drilled hole, and the price updates live as you build. If you want a similar premium weight without the striped edge, the Premium Prestige Hangtags cover that, and layer cake sits right beside them as the version with a colored core.
What Size Should a Layer Cake Hangtag Be?
The right size comes down to the product it hangs on. A 2" x 2" square works for a small gift or a price tag, small enough to feel like a token. A taller 2" x 3.5" or 2" x 6" tag gives room for a story, care details or a barcode, and the 2.5" x 2.5" and 3" x 3" squares sit in between. Need something in the gap? Set a custom size up to 3" x 6" in the configurator. Every tag ships ready to hang, drilled with a single 1/8" or 3/16" hole placed top center, top left or top right, so your string or ribbon threads exactly where you want it. All 6 sizes, both hole options and the full stock list are grouped below the way the live configurator presents them. For a die-cut shape instead of a straight rectangle, the Die-Cut Hangtags take the same idea into custom outlines.
What Stocks and Center Colors Can You Choose?
A layer cake hangtag prints on 4 thick covers. The 48pt and 64pt UltraWhite Uncoated covers give a natural, writeable surface, while the 40pt and 56pt Gloss covers make color and photos snap. Then comes the star of the show, the center core: 11 core colors, from a deep black to a bright blue raspberry, sit between the outer layers and show as a clean stripe on every cut edge. Prefer a plain edge? Leave the core off. Set your ink to 4/0 for a printed front and blank back, 4/1 to add black on the back, or 4/4 for full color on both sides. If you want a soft, velvety hand instead of a colored edge, the Soft Touch Hangtags are another premium pick in the same family.

How Much Do Layer Cake Hangtags Cost?
Layer cake hangtags start at $33.72 per 50, and the per-tag price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 5,000, so a cheap tag really comes down to how big a run you order. A 300 tag run is $87.77, 600 run $150.27, and a 5,000 tag run works out near $0.21 each. On top of that, you earn 4OVER4 loyalty coins on every order and can apply them for up to 13% off at checkout.

How Do Layer Cake Hangtags Compare to Other Tags?
Layer cake hangtags are the pick when you want a colored edge nobody else on the rack has, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a thicker premium stock, a custom die-cut shape or a softer finish, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up layer cake hangtags against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
How Fast Can You Get Layer Cake Hangtags?
Layer cake hangtags print on a 5 business day standard turnaround, and when a launch or a restock sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Order by the daily cutoff and a Same-Day job ships that afternoon. You pick the turnaround in one dropdown and see the cost before you commit.
What Do People Use Layer Cake Hangtags For?
Because the edge carries a pop of color, these tags earn a second look on a crowded rack. Boutiques hang them on apparel with the brand on front and a care note on back. Makers tie them to candles, soap and ceramics as a signed touch. Online shops use them as premium gift tags tucked into every order. String, ribbon or twine threads through the drilled hole, and the core color ties the whole line together. One tag, a colored edge, and a lot of products it makes look more finished.
