I saw the NOMU booth at the show and I am still amazed with the beauty and simplicity of their packaging style. The vanilla paste packaging is no exception, it won the SIAL Grand Prix Coup de Coeur Judge’s Selection prize last year for Innovation and Excellence in Packaging and Design. Simple, elegant, and gourmet.
Just introduced at the Fancy Food Show, peeled snacks has not only offers beautiful packaging for their line of delicious fruit and nut mixes, it is innovative as well! They package the fruits and nuts seperately ensuring that the nuts stay crunchy and the fruit stays moist. Smart idea! Continue for more photos...
One more from Fancy Food. I like that Clearbrook Farms' labels aren't too precious. They have nice, bold colors and the handlettering isn't cloyingly sweet or very obviously a typeface (although it is). They've found a nice blend between boutique and mass-market.
Clearbrook's labels were designed by Lipson, Alport, Glass in Cincinnati.
A closeup after the jump.
Nutty Girl was at the Fancy Food Show. I love the fully-illustrated packaging; even the logo is hand-written! Hand-drawn/painted illustration on packaging adds so much character. What makes this packaging so interesting is the complete head-to-toe hand drawn/painted packaging, down to the copy itself. The art is by the company founder, Carolyn Cary, who is also a painter (can you tell?)
You can't have a Fancy Food Show without some fancy boutique chocolates. This packaging falls right into my sweetspot: luxe, contemporary, incredibly elegant, and well put together. If you could see the extremely blurry image that I'm not posting, you'd see a beautifully embossed logo with clear foil on the blue box once you slide the sleeve off. Note to other chocolate makers out there: the crinkly cellophane bag thing with cheap gold sticker is not very high-end. Poco Dolci have it down perfectly.
A very nicely packaged line of nuts, dried fruit, & mixes. I especially like the wooden containers with the bags tied in with rope- a nice touch.
Harney & Sons Tea was my personal favorite of all the tea packaging at the show, and believe me, there were tons! Amazing work, continue for more photos...
This is a product that I am very proud of, I designed this for Jelly Belly and spotted it at their booth at the show! I contains two tall coffee mugs and a bag of cappuccino and cafe latte Jelly Belly jelly beans. What do you guys think?
Very well done packaging from Tsp Spices, some of the best at the show! Great concept too, pre-measured 1 teaspoon packets of spices in tins.
I have seen this before several times but I forgot about it until I saw it at the show again, stunning, simple, and very gourmet.
El Paso's signature margarita mix packaging in new flavors.
Simple and contemporary hot chocolate packaging from NOMU.
Vibrant packaging over at the El Paso Chili booth!
Spotted these guys at Fancy Food '07. They bill the Moravians as the thinnest cookies around, and they probably aren't kidding. Very thin, but full of flavor. I love vintage-style typography, especially when it manages to give a product both an old-world and contemporary feeling at the same time. They look like they were baked by someone's mother, yet you could serve them at the finest restaurant and they wouldn't be out of place.
Got Milk? chocolate product line by the San Francisco Chocolate Factory (spotted at the 2007 Summer Fancy Food Show in NYC). They have lots of other great-looking packaged products on their website, so check it out!
Sence™ rose nectar is an unusual beverage in equally unique bottles. The packaging is very much like that of perfumes. The product seems to be marketed to a high-end crowd - specifically for nightclubs, lounges, restaurants and events like weddings. The company describes the product as a beverage made from the Kazalak Rose from central Bulgaria. This is a traditional beverage that is also high in vitamin C. They will be made with organic sugar in the near future. I discovered this beautifully packaged product at the 2007 Summer Fancy Food Show today.
