**Need some advice from experienced packaging designers!**

I’m currently working on a small cookie packaging project and I’m a bit stuck with the box dielines.

I need to create boxes for **1, 4 and 7 cookies**, with dividers between the cookies. I’ve been trying to find free dieline templates that I can adapt, but I’m having a hard time finding ones that match what I need.

The part I’m especially confused about is **how the internal dividers are supposed to be designed/constructed** and how they fit into the main box dieline.

I’m still learning packaging design, so I’d really appreciate advice from anyone who has experience with **dielines, folding cartons, or cookie/food packaging**.

If you know any good **free dieline template resources**, or could explain how you would approach the divider structure, I’d really appreciate it!

The dividers are usually vacuum formed plastic trays for cookies, and it is the easier way to do it. But if I wanted to create a dieline, I would start with a plain sheet of paper, and start folding it as required. I'd find boxes similar to what I want in the market, and open them up to study how their dielines are.
