About Miltos Botchan Ressha 초콜릿 패키지
밀토스 봇짱 렛샤(Miltos Botchan Ressha)는 130년이 넘는 역사를 지닌 기관차와 쇼콜라티에의 협업을 위해 제작된 초콜릿 패키지이다. 상자는 진한 녹색의 고급 종이로 제작되었으며, 이 색상은 열차의 외장 도색과 말차 초콜릿을 동시에 상징한다. 기관차는 실제 열차의 사진을 바탕으로 무광 블랙 호일 스탬핑으로 재현되었다. 로고와 제품명은 무광 골드 호일로 압인되었다. 초콜릿에는 미로처럼 그려진 노선도가 각인되어 있다. 동봉된 카드에는 각 정차역과 노선에 대한 설명이 담겨 있다.

- Unique Properties
- A collaborative product and package between a locomotive with more than 130 years of history and an up-and-coming, well acclaimed chocolatier. The package's form has a sense of luxury reminiscent of perfume, with precise train drawings that would make fans groan reproduced with foil stamping. The deep green of the package symbolizes the trade color of the train and the color of matcha chocolate. The chocolates are decorated with the motif of an actual route map, adding a touch of playfulness.

- Box: 101.6mm x 101.6mm x 12.7mm (Uses deep green fine paper. The locomotive is matte black foil stamped. The logo and product name are stamped with matt gold foil.)

- Production Technology
- It has been manufactured with accuracy, artistry and entertainment. The trains are drawn with respect for railroad fans and its history, based on photographs of the actual trains taken by the designers themselves. The printing uses matte black foil stamping to express the train's calm texture. The line width seeks maximum tenuity through repeated trial production. The lines and logos engraved on the chocolate are designed to have a depth measurable in microns, so that beautiful shadows appear.
- Design Challenge
- The most difficult task is to accurately reproduce the design applied to chocolate. Many trials were made to engrave an accurate pattern on the chocolate, which crumbles easily, giving it an artistic finish. Keeping in mind that the role and beautiful form of the train exist when it's running, the drawing of the train is arranged so as to surround the package, and the static package expresses the dynamic role of a train that has been running for many years.
- Research
- The elements necessary to raise chocolate to gourmet status without compromising essence are being researched. A conclusion was reached about how fragrance is an important component, and a package produced that creates an impression of perfume. This locomotive, rugged but with a petite and cute side, is expressed through drawings and a maze of maps. The mechanical and cultural features have been extracted to create something to be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
- Inspiration
- The creator was inspired by two people who produce things without compromise. The original appearance of the train is accurately reproduced in the package. Through the elements of design that capture the locomotive's steampunk feel in a good way, one can enjoy its original charm. The chocolate has a playful design to it that expresses the route on which the train runs as a maze. The contrast and fusion of two different designs is related to their collaboration.
- Project Duration
- The project started in Japan in July 2019 and ended in February 2020. It was announced in September 2020.
- Operation Flow
- It was designed to give the consumer a cultural experience that will improve their life by eating this chocolate. The perfume-inspired packaging takes them to a new frontier, to enjoy the mellow aroma of chocolate made from real cocoa. By consuming it while enjoying the maze, they can visit the route and background of the areas and cultures where the train runs. In addition, each stop and route map is explained on the attached card. Eating enhances creativity, leading to a time of refinement.
