Truffeletes de France - Chocmod - Branded Structural Packaging

Chocmod is a family business founded in 1948 in northern France.

Manufacturing traditional French truffles, Chocmod distributes worldwide under its own brand (Truffettes de France) as well as private label brands for famous retailers.

Expert in the art of sublimating chocolate using French know-how, Chocmod offers a wide range of products: fancy truffles, chocolate truffles, organic truffles, marshmallows and chocolate-covered meringues.

The brand "Truffettes de France" focuses on a soft truffle with powdered cocoa dusting.

Sold globally, these rich cocoa chocolate truffles are dusted with chocolate and melt in your mouth.

Chocmod trusted Pearl Resourcing to create their branded structural packaging for gifting, holiday and club stores.

Pearl helped Chocmod identify unique gifting structures to appeal to large retailers like Costco.

Our initial concept was a tall gifting box with a lid. Another concern was the elegance and gifting appearance for the end customer in stores. To make the gift easy to carry (and already decorated) we added a gold ribbon.

Chocmod went to designing their artwork according to their brand guide but they explored fresh and modern interpretations with this new packaging structure.

The final packaging design selected had delicate art nouveau curls with warm golden ribbons and lace. To elevate this design Pearl manufactured the box with premium print finishes including gold foil, embossing and soft touch to accentuate a warm elegant feeling.

Since safety and palletization is a crucial element of club sales, Pearl designed the gift box to easily palletize. This needed to work for 1 pallet but also when 2 pallets are stacked on top of each other in a truck. This meant the structure had to be incredible strong so it could stack without crumbling or crushing under weight.

Costco has carried Chocolate Truffles by ChocMod France in multiple regions. They are now available in Costco Taiwan.

Furthemore freight costs are always a pain point for brands.

ChocMod asked us to consider ways to reduce these costs. We created an autobottom bottom option at the base, allowing the box to collapse for shipment and easily pop open at the factory when being filled with chocolate. Adding double sided tape at the base and a thick insert that helps keep shape, this box became easy to seal and construct.

Imagine popping open a box and easily sealing it with minimum labor! A life saver for a company committed to good value for their retailers.

Buyers LOVED the new design and Costco buyers from regions all over the world signed-up to order and carry the new design for all seasons.

Now you can buy and gift for Chinese New Year, Easter / Spring, Christmas or any other holiday you celebrate with a yummy sweet treat.

Sold in Costco's across the globe including Taiwan, Canada, and the United States.

Warm spring colors make a great gift for summer and spring!
