About Chocolate Mouth 초콜릿 패키지 디자인

초콜릿 마우스(Chocolate Mouth)는 수제 봉봉 초콜릿 브랜드를 위한 패키지 디자인이다. 이 디자인은 전통적이고 낭만적인 초콜릿 패키지에서 벗어나 대담하고 유쾌한 비주얼 스타일을 사용한다. 해골, 레트로 타투 모티프, 오스틴의 랜드마크 등 프로젝트만을 위한 맞춤 일러스트레이션이 제작되었다. 이 일러스트레이션들은 여러 기프트 박스 컬렉션과 시즌 한정 출시 제품 전반에 걸쳐 적용되는 일관된 시스템을 형성한다. 박스는 250×250×40밀리미터와 180×120×40밀리미터 두 가지 크기로 제작되었다. 각 박스는 소장 가치를 지닌 오브제로 간직할 수 있도록 디자인되었다.

Unique Properties: Chocolate Mouth is an artisan chocolate brand from Austin, Texas, known for its handcrafted bonbons and playful, unconventional gift boxes.
The brand was created to bring personality, humor, and attitude back to chocolate - moving away from traditional, overly romantic chocolate branding.
The concept was built around the spirit of Austin, a city famous for its creative culture, music, art, and the well-known phrase Keep Austin Weird.
Dimensions & Packaging: The box 1 250 mm x 250 mm x 40 mm
The box 2 180 mm x 120 mm x 40 mm
Tags: chocolate, bonbon, packaging, illustration
Production Technology: A key part of the brand identity is the custom illustration style, created specifically for this project. Every illustration was designed from scratch and brings its own character to the packaging, ranging from playful skeletons and retro tattoos to Austin landmarks and cultural references.
Design Challenge: We created a bold and expressive visual identity that reflects Austin’s culture and the brand’s playful personality.
The project included the development of: Logo Design, Brand Identity System, Packaging Design for multiple chocolate box collections, Custom Illustration System, E-commerce Website Design & Development
Research: These illustrations create a visual language that feels alive, unconventional, and unmistakably Austin.
The packaging was designed to function like mini art posters, turning each chocolate box into a collectible object rather than just a container.
To support the brand experience online, we also designed and developed a custom e-commerce website that continues the same visual storytelling. The site reflects the same bold personality - colorful, playful, slightly weird, and unmistakably unique.
Inspiration: The main challenge was to create a brand that would stand out in a market dominated by traditional, elegant, and predictable chocolate packaging.
Chocolate Mouth wanted something different - something that reflects real life, real emotions, and real personalities. Their chocolate is not only for holidays like Valentine’s Day or weddings. It’s for breakups, celebrations, random Tuesdays, and everything in between.
Project Duration: Started in August 2025 and finished in February 2026 in Texas, USA
Operation Flow: Our goal was to translate this unique energy into a brand that feels bold, expressive, and a little rebellious, while still celebrating the craft of small-batch chocolate making. The brand needed to capture: the creative and slightly chaotic energy of Austin, a strong visual personality, packaging that feels collectible, fun, and memorable, a visual system that could work across multiple themed gift boxes and seasonal drops.
