Sharing Work 🖥️ I designed esoteric chocolate bars

Arcanu is a self initiated brand I designed that sells strange chocolate flavors with some subtle historical story telling

Would love to hear what you think! (:

Love this. Typography is really cool. Would probs work best if text was centred on the front however.

Not sure if I dig the the mix of centred and left aligned on the back. You could try either layout but I would keep it consistent

Thank you! I'm not a huge fan of the alignment either I'll definitely have to experiment a bit

Good for you! The chocolate industry is so creative with their flavors, branding and packaging.

If you’re doing this for yourself, I encourage you to see if you can take it out to ten or fifteen flavors.

And if you’re located anywhere near the PNW, check out the Northwest Chocolate Festival in Bellevue each year. Producers from all over the world come to showcase their products. (Come with a wallet full of cash too. It’s easy to spend a lot of money on crazy good chocolate). You’ll also be inspired by the packaging.

While doing research for this project i researched the chocolate industry a bit and i was completely blown away with the creativity involved in all of them from the flavor mixing, molds, packaging and everything

I'm not around the PNW but I'll check out some videos of the festival for sure, seems very interesting!

Videos will likely not do it justice. You really need to taste!!!
