Less sugar. More art.

Bahlsen was facing a new challenge: Finding alternatives to refined sugar while maintaining the taste of their cookies. How can design convey the “Future of Good Food”?

We replaced the sweetness of sugar with the sweetness of art. 8 illustrators created 8 one-of-a-kind creations as an appealing casing for the most important artwork: the cookies.

Sugar for the eyes. The packaging can be reused as a poster and each cookie features a message that forms a bridge between sugar and art.

One cookie is worth more than 1000 words.

Bahlsen opted for natural fruit sweetness in the cookies and sugar for the eyes—in the form of art: Instead of packaging it, the packaging itself becomes sugar.
