The art of the snack.

Flavors worth thinking about.

Small batch. Big taste.

Inter — body & UI

Every blend starts with a question: what would a cook do with these flavors?

Smoked almond, dark chocolate, dried cherry, sea salt. A riff on a chocolate-covered cherry — with enough tension to keep it interesting.

Flavor Cards

How a lineup looks as a collection. Each blend owns its accent color.


Voice & Tone

Curious, confident, warm. Sounds like someone who cooks and reads — not a brand manager.

Write like this

  • "A riff on a chocolate-covered cherry with some savory tension."
  • "The miso glaze makes the almond taste like itself, but better."
  • "Something you'd make if you cooked this for dinner."

Not like this

  • "Fuel your adventure."
  • "PROTEIN + FIBER + OMEGA-3"
  • "The perfect snack for on-the-go lifestyles!"

Packaging Direction

◻

Format

Matte stand-up pouches or kraft with a clear window. Nothing glossy.

◈

Layout

Lots of negative space. The wordmark breathes. Flavor name large, ingredient callouts small.

◑

Color logic

Base is always warm white or oat. The flavor accent color anchors one band or the bottom third.
