About Tokinone Харчовая ўпакоўка

Токіноне — гэта дызайн упакоўкі для Дораякі, традыцыйнага японскага пірожнага, якое робіцца шляхам змяшчэння бабовай пасты паміж бліноў. Версія Токіноне дадае масляны крэм і смакі, такія як фрукты і зялёны чай. Узор выкарыстоўвае сем колераў, па адным для кожнага смаку, з выпадковымі формамі, якія намякаюць на мяккую тэкстуру. Колеры і формы спалучаюць старое і новае, японскія і заходнія рэферэнцыі. Скрынка зроблена з негляянцавай высакаякаснай паперы, якая адпавядае тэкстуры пірожнага. Кожнаму пірожнаму адведзена дастаткова месца ўнутры скрынкі. Усе часткі зроблены з паперы, якая падлягае перапрацоўцы, і могуць быць складзены пляска пасля выкарыстання.

Production Technology
The Dorayaki cakes that come in the box are very soft, so each one is specially designed to have sufficient margins. The box is made of non-glossy high quality paper to match the texture of the Dorayaki. Also recyclable paper products were chosen for everything related to this product.
Design Challenge
Many of the traditional Japanese confectionery packages were expected to be of high quality as gifts, and this project was required to express a modern style while inheriting the tradition. In the design, expressing the warmth was the most important part of this product, which is prepared by hand, while at the same time achieving both the quality as a gift.
Research
Kawagoe City, where this product is sold, is a tourist destination, and in recent years has become a popular dating spot among young people and foreigners. With the shift in tourist demographics, the traditional souvenir wagashi also needed to be reborn. The branding and package were designed from scratch to create a product that would be loved by people of all ages and languages, while retaining the Japanese tradition.
Inspiration
Tokinone means "tone of time" in Japanese. To revive this Japanese traditional confectionery Dorayaki (pancake-like patties wrraped around filling of sweet bean paste.) handed down from long ago as a new local specialty of the modern age, colors and shapes that give a sense of both new and old, Japanese and Western styles are used.
The colors used in the design were imagined from butter, strawberry, tangerine, rum, sweet potato, matcha, and hojicha.
Project Duration
Development began in 2019 in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture, and sales began in 2020 at a long-established Japanese confectionery store near Kita-in, Kawagoe City.
Operation Flow
The design is consistent with the rationale behind the color choice, but also visually catches the eye with a pop and high quality atmosphere that makes the product tasty and enjoyable. All packages are made of paper and can be easily disassembled and folded, making them environmentally friendly.
