As the fate of snack company Hostess hangs uncertain after the announcement of its bankruptcy last month, lovers of its delicious products—including the popular Twinkie and Cup Cakes—have gone on a buying frenzy for fear of never tasting them again after production stops.
In hope of saving these beloved snacks from extinction, San Francisco-based designer Cristina Castro has radically re-designed the packaging of the floundering brand and given it an exciting new look.
Featuring bright, bold graphics and mouth-watering copy presented in a cute, hand-written typeface, the re-design includes a new single-serving package for calorie-conscious individuals.
If Wal-Mart really does buy up Hostess and bring back its American classic snacks, we hope that it will consider implementing Castro’s beautiful new packaging.
