Commercial Applications
The elongated 18-inch length with expandable gussets makes these bags ideal for bakeries packaging churros, breadsticks, grissini, and artisan bread sticks. Food service operations use them for individually wrapped baguette portions and deli breadsticks. The gusseted design accommodates items with irregular shapes or slight curves that flat bags cannot handle. Confectionery operations rely on this size for long candy sticks, pretzel rods, and specialty treats that require both length and breathing room.

Sizing Guide
When flat, these bags measure 5 inches across. With gussets fully expanded, the interior opening accommodates items approximately 3-4 inches in diameter. The 18-inch length handles most standard churros (12-16 inches) and European-style breadsticks with room for twist-tie closure at the top.
