The 2016 Cadbury Easter packaging follows along with the themes that the iconic British confectionery brand has come to be known for, while it also infuses the design scheme with new life. Included in the new range of designs are Cadbury's Mini Eggs, Creme Eggs and Easter gift sets.
Now that Cadbury Mini Eggs and some of their other bestsellers are now available year-round, it's important for the brand to create Easter-specific branding that will stand out against the type available 365-days a year.
Designed by the creative team at Design Bridge, the experience of the Easter packaging feels familiar due to its use of the vibrant purple hues the brand is known for, while it also succeeds in appearing fresh, which may cause shoppers to question if its a new product they need to try.
