Those big containers of sugar and creamer always look so awful sitting on the counter in the office kitchen. Entermotion did a great job remedying this with their design for Roaster Joe’s creamer and sugar containers. A nice design that creates easy identifiers for each.

Posted In food, packagingI’ve been messing with the idea of making some homemade vanilla for awhile now. But after seeing this idea I’m sold. Love it!
If you read the olive oil descriptions on the O de Oliva site it sounds like a selection of fine wines.
“It has a very smooth taste, with hints of almonds and green apples.”
“It is a fruity oil, smooth yet persistent, with a long-lasting aroma, both on the palette and in the memory.”
“Fruity taste of ripe olive with a light taste of apple, slightly bitter and spicy.”
And the bottles look like something you’d proudly display in your kitchen with their simple, lovely design.

Posted In food, packagingThe design of these flavored coffee creamer “jiggers” for Arla Foods (designed by Neumeister) remind me of the same design as those Minute Maid frozen pushups everyone used to eat during lunch in the school cafeteria. Brilliant, fun design!

I can hardly resist these Strativarius sugar tablets! First, they’re sugar which I have a hard time saying no to. Second, look at those colors! Third, I love the idea of “break off as much as you want.”

1. good karmal
From our very first batch, we believed that it was not enough to create delicious, buttery caramels to delight the senses — we wanted to spark imaginations and inspire our customers and ourselves to, as Mahatma Gandhi said, “be the change we wish to see in the world.” So we wrapped each handcrafted caramel with words of wisdom, and sent them out into the world.
2. TSP spices
Our spices are organic, always fresh, great tasting and very, very convenient.
3. belgian chocolate-covered oreos
Our gorgeous glass canister is filled with decadent chocolate-covered Oreos®, made with an exclusive blend of Belgian chocolate. Each cookie is individually wrapped for freshness in stunning autumn-colored foils. Whether displayed on the counter, sideboard or dinner table, they make for a visual feast and delicious treat.

Spoon, melt, spread, or dip it, it’s up to you. This thick, rich chocolate ganache will satisfy even the most demanding and knowledgeable chocolate connoisseur.

We follow our passion for excellence to bring you chocolate that will delight your palate, ignite your imagination and inspire you to think and act sustainably!
I started baking last night – Honey Ginger Snaps for those of you interested – and packing the cookies up for shipping to Pennsylvania ahead of my departure (until then they’re in the freezer). I’m sticking to large Gladware containers that I can pack up nice and full and that will keep things as fresh as possible.
I’m not giving cookies to friends and family here this year, but when I saw these monogrammed candy gift boxes I really, really wished I were! Modeled after packages from a Parisian confectionery shop, they’re made of sturdy, stain-resistant paper stock accented with scalloped edging and decorative borders. Your gold-embossed monogram even appears on the lid flap. So classy!
Sometimes it’s nice to realize I’m not entirely nut-zo. For the past few Christmases whenever I see a box of panettone I always think Pantone in my head. Apparently the designers at Purpose were on the same wavelength when creating at this piece for Greenford Printing!
By building on the familiar language of colour specification, Pantone swatches initiated the main theme for our concept. ‘Panettone’ created a colourful twist on the traditional Italian Christmas cake. The Panettone boxes arrive as a set of 5, featuring special dates from Christmas Eve to New Years Day, each one representing a different pantone colour.

I’m a true believer in the idea that when you pay for a product you pay for the experience it will provide you. Which brings us to Alice Chocolate and the sweet, matchbox-like package it arrives in and the cigar-like wands of pure chocolate held within. Lovely, lovely packaging.
Dorset Cereals is a prime example of how packaging can turn what would normally be plain ol’ nuts and berries into something fantastic that you want sitting in your kitchen.
