Our Packaging Design for Van Velze’s Chocolates Mayo, Ireland
At Designwest, we love seeing a packaging project come together, and we recently worked with Van Velze’s Chocolates on their Sea Salted Chocolate Caramels.
About Van Velze’s Chocolates
Run by Robbert and Deborah van Velze, this artisan chocolate business started in Amsterdam and is now based in Co. Mayo. Every piece is handmade in small batches, using the finest ingredients, from Venezuelan cocoa to Achill Island sea salt. Their commitment to quality and flavour speaks for itself, and it’s been great to work with them on their latest packaging.
Packaging Design with a Festive Touch
For this edition, we designed packaging that reflects the richness and warmth of the product inside. Deep reds and gold accents give it a festive but elegant look, while subtle snowflake details add a seasonal touch without overdoing it. The design keeps the focus on the handcrafted quality of Van Velze’s chocolates, ensuring it stands out while staying true to their brand.
