A passion for chocolate, refined.

BRAND | PACKAGING | DESIGN | PHOTOGRAPHY | DIGITAL

Cocoba grew from Darren’s passion to create the very best hot chocolate into a successful business supplying retailers across the UK and beyond. But like many rapidly growing companies driven by imaginative NPD, their design approach to packaging had grown fragmented. They recognised the need to take a closer look at their pack designs to build deeper brand recognition.

We helped them refine their brand positioning, building on their authentic roots while adding the ‘shelf discipline’ needed to make the range easier to shop. The result is a consistent brand with stronger impact and instant recognition.

Bringing big characters to life.

When Cocoba partnered with global character brands to create chocolate products with a difference, bringing icons like Julia Donaldson’s The Gruffalo to the retail shelf, they needed more than just packaging. They needed to prove their innovative concepts could sell. We designed solutions that remained true to the brand architecture, creating 3D visualisations and pack designs that secured rapid approvals and market placements.

Agile design for fast-moving retail.

Retail opportunities don't wait. Whether it’s preparing urgent concepts for trade shows or refining the core range to ensure customers don't confuse Ginger with Milk Buttons, we work as an extension of the Cocoba team.

From shelf-ready packaging to complex licensed NPD, we provide the creative and pragmatic design support that keeps their products moving from production to basket.

Let’s tell your story.

We believe in creativity with purpose, where strategy and design come together to create work that is not just beautiful, but effective. We help businesses uncover what makes them unique and find the best ways to share it with the world.

Let’s do the same for you.
