AESOP Tells a “Tongue and Cheek” Story for Bristows Traditional BonBons with design and campaign for  which includes: new packaging, POS and other print materials. “Played out against a ‘gingham’ backdrop, with a pastel palette defined by the four different flavours, the hero of the new packaging design is an eccentric ‘fruity’ toff. Complete with monocle and neatly coiffed tache – the sweet as a ‘chewy mouthful’ is brought to life by the use of the character’s mouth as the pack window. The choice of a matt finish to the packaging is a subtle nod to Bristows retro credentials – reminiscent of the sweet bags of yesteryear.”
 
 

 
“This was all about injecting fun and personality into the brand. Our mouth-focused pack idea inspired us to capture the chewy, ‘sucky’ experience in a campaign using gurning!”

Martin Grimer, Executive Creative Director

The in-store POS material, to coincide with the new pack launch, will feature a series of ‘gurning’ wobblers with the straplines ‘they suck’ and ‘they’re chewy’. Fun and funny, they capture the physical experience and taste sensation of eating a Bristows Bonbon.

 ”With Aesop it’s all about the story – and they have managed to tell ours with wit and style that references the brands heritage whilst bringing it bang up to date”. David Ives, Managing Director, Creditons Confectionery Ltd
