Una Luna is a packaging design for a collection of liqueur filled chocolates. Each candy is infused with a liqueur blend, covered with a thin sugar casing and dipped in Italian dark chocolate. The packaging avoids images of ingredients. Instead, each flavor is expressed through abstract brush strokes and colors. The box is printed in full color on cardboard, with gold foil embossing and selective varnish over the illustrations. A black background frames the bright strokes and unites the collection in one line.

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.
- 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. - Image Credits
