About Una Luna Collection Involucrum Dulciorum

Una Luna est consilium involucri pro collectione dulciorum socolatae liquore repletorum. Quodque dulciolum mixtura liquoris infusum est, tenui crusta sacchari tectum et in socolatam nigram Italicam intinctum. Involucrum imagines ingredientium vitat. Pro his, quisque sapor per abstractos penicilli ductus et colores exprimitur. Capsa pleno colore in charta crassa imprimitur, cum bractea aurea impressa et vernice selectiva super illustrationes. Fundus niger ductus claros circumdat et collectionem in unam lineam coniungit.

Tags: Chocolate collection, Chocolate, Chocolate packaging, Alcohol, Liquor candy
Production Technology: Production technology for packaging liquor candies Una Luna, includes full-color printing on cardboard with the addition of embossing gold foil and the use of selective varnish, in those areas where the illustration is located
Design Challenge: The new bright design bypasses design conventions and artistically expresses the essence of each flavor of Una Luna chocolate candies.
Research: The designer departed from the customary practice of conveying taste through the image of ingredients on the package. The designer decided to convey not the taste as such, but the energy behind each flavor. For example, in Khrenovukha, the taste of horseradish tincture with honey and lemon was conveyed in a swirl of green-blue-yellow strokes. Malynıvka, a tincture on raspberries, bloomed with bright pink strokes. Tsytrynıvka tincture on oranges – bursting with bright hot oranges. Jyravlynıvka tincture on cranberries – scattered in a firework of blue-red splashes.
Inspiration: Alcoholic candies are most often made on the basis of liquor. This is a strong drink that is infused with fragrant herbs, seeds, and fruits and with the addition of essential oils.
Candies with alcohol have a subtle aroma and a spicy aftertaste.
The packaging design is inspired by the combination of new flavors and colors. Each flavor is abstractly represented in the form of unexpected strokes and brush strokes – a real work of art.
Project Duration: June 2022 - October 2022.
Ukraine
Operation Flow: The use of a black background, framing the elements with gold foil and selective varnish helps to visually highlight the bright touches and unite each flavor in a single line.
