Everything you ever wanted to know about this sort of work is in the Lighting Bible. If you don't already own a copy, BUY ONE NOW! It's hard to give a lot of advice without knowing more about your set-up, but assuming this is a normal-size fixture, a 2x2' box is WAY too small. I would use a product table such as this one, and elevate the product on clear plexi. You need to light the background separately from the product, and you need your lights close with LOTS of diffusion. I would see this as probably a five-light set-up; two for the background, key, fill and overhead for the product.
