Question
What paper weights are available for cream uncoated stock?
Answer
Cream (also called natural) uncoated stock has a warm, soft-white tone and an untreated, writable surface that suits invitations, stationery, and keepsake pieces. It is usually carried in a couple of standard weights, and heavier looks can be built by printing a cream background onto a thicker white uncoated cover.
| Weight | Feel | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 14pt cream uncoated | Light to medium, flexible | Letters, inserts, everyday stationery |
| 18pt cream uncoated | Firmer, sturdier | Invitations, note cards, business cards |
| 32pt white uncoated + cream print | Ultra-thick and rigid | Premium invites where a cream tone is printed on |
- The heavier 32pt route prints a solid cream background on white cover, so the cut edges will still show as white rather than cream.
- Uncoated cream takes pen and stamp ink well, which matters for RSVP and handwritten pieces.
