A successful example: ChocOlé twisted pastry sticks wrapped in chocolate. Perfect protection for the fragile stick offers a round box made of cardboard. The round packaging falls not only on the POS on the pastry shelf, it also has interesting benefit aspects. The attractive box is intuitive to open and reseal by tear thread and also fits in the cup holder in the car.
In the development of the can no existing design has been implemented, but special emphasis on product protection and barrier effect despite pure cardboard packaging - especially with regard to migration - defined. The color scheme was based on the "learned" in chocolate colors: blue stands for whole milk, red for dark. Even as gifts offers the packaging concept a surprise: when opening the sticks are instant like a bouquet of flowers.

The top-loading box contains four individually wrapped cookies that are so large with 8.5 cm diameter as the American originals, and they bring New York pastry tradition to Cookies shelf. Each XXL cookie is individually wrapped to provide the freshness of the cookies safely. Thus, the cookies are also ideal for traveling.
