As the holidays are fast-approaching, Taco Bell is one of the first companies to embrace the festivities this season with scented wrapping paper. The design of the CrunchWrapping Paper collection is inspired by the texture of the cuisine that is offered at the fast-food establishment. Last holiday season, consumers had the opportunity to enjoy the different facets of Taco Bell’s Triple Double Crunchwrap in the form of wrapping paper — from patterns that depict seasoned beef and nacho cheese sauce to ones that feature veggies and tortillas.
While the original CrunchWrapping Paper "was a huge hit last year" as it sold out in a matter of days, Taco Bell's upgraded version, the scented wrapping paper, is bound to pique the interest of consumers, maybe even faster this year.
The holiday product will be available for purchase on Amazon.ca on December 2nd.
