Böcklingpastej is a smoked herring fish paste from Biggans, a small family owned company creating products for the Swedish market since 1952. The company recently worked with Stockholm-based graphic design studio Bedow, who had previously helped them with the packaging for their range of sauces, to develop product packaging and POS for Böcklingpastej. This replaces a heavily branded logo-centric design with one of a more distinctive and crafted character.

Superseeds is a range of flavoured seeds available in five varieties, all of which are 100% organic, gluten and dairy free. These include Chili Smoke, Maca Caramel and Japanese Tamari. It is the first product from UK health food business Punch Foods, which looks to balance artisanal practice with optimal nutrition and punchy flavour.
Taking their inspirations from the origins of each variety, and the punchy flavour that characterises the Punch Foods brand, London based graphic design studio and packaging specialist B&B Studio worked with the brand to developed a visual identity and packaging treatment for Superseeds. This replaces a tired and low-impact design with one of modernity and distinction—in form, colour and high contrast.

Naughty But Rice is a rice pudding range created by The Hain Daniels Group in response to an increase in the dessert’s popularity in the United Kingdom. Unlike the product’s of established and mainstream brands, Naughty But Rice, as the name suggests, offers consumers a modern and indulgent twist on the traditional favourite, with flavours that include Coconut & Raspberry, Salted Caramel and Chocolate Orange.
The range features a brand identity and package design, developed by Leeds based graphic design studio Robot Food, that leaves behind what the studio describe as tired category conventions, and instead, embraces the striking and high-contrast, in structure, type, colour, space and illustration. Since its launch, Naughty But Nice has secured shelf space in supermarkets such as Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s and Booths.
