In the competitive world of retail, packaging is the key to all brand communication. It is the one symbolic and iconic constant that acts as both the first and last brand touchpoint for consumers. And yet, packaging is often the last item to tick in the marketing mix: frequently briefed in as an afterthought, off the back of an ATL TVC concept.

With the scene now set, it became easy to assign characters to products, and expand on the narrative with each individual item: the trade presenter became a 3D hen-house concealing the chocolate factory with all of its workers, and the hollow eggs allowed secondary characters to tell their individual stories.

With a solid foundation built from the brand up, the ATL and BTL campaigns could follow on seamlessly and create a well rounded execution that can live on year to year. Cadbury Fluffies looks set to change the Easter confectionery market. And to think that it all started with a simple packaging brief…
