Bocce’s Bakery creates nutritious handcrafted dog treats from natural, nutritious, locally sourced and seasonal ingredients from its premises in the New York borough of Brooklyn. Each of the bakery’s treats are batch-produced from four or less ingredients, brought together using simple wheat-free recipes, and born of a passion for conscientious organic cookery and inspired by Bocce, a biscuit loving dog who was carrying a few extra pounds.
Bocce’s reached out to UK based design studio Robot Food to develop a new brand identity and package design treatment that would bring these more in line with the quality of their product and convey the values, story and personable qualities that are the foundation of their business.

It comes in two varieties, a poultry manure and sawdust mix, and a rapeseed oil cake and powder mix, both packed in two sizes, a large 15kg bag and smaller 500g bag. These will be sold through large agricultural retailers as well as small gardening shops.
Island of Soil’s packaging was created by Osaka based studio UMA. It features an unbleached card interior and a bleached and printed paper exterior, closed with a copper split pin and has a bold typographic and iconographic approach to its graphic design.

Aultmore is a rare Speyside single malt Scotch whisky known locally as “a nip of the Buckie Road” and is part of the ‘Last Great Malts of Scotland’ collection from John Dewar & Sons. Drawing inspiration from the misty and mysterious area known as ‘Foggie Moss’, a place where the distillery’s water filters through, London based graphic design studio Stranger & Stranger developed a label, bottle and packaging treatment that, while heavy on the heritage, individuality and craft cues inherent to the industry, sets a unique tone through image and the absence of image.
