A little history

As for the packaging itself, the shape and design throughout history has been developed by many craftsmen and artists. After all, appearance is extremely important for the buyer.

For example, they used bonbonnieres, chests, tin and cardboard boxes, sometimes sweets were wrapped in plain paper and hidden in drawers and caskets. Bonbonnieres were initially used simply for packaging ordinary loose sweets in order to maintain integrity. And over time, not only sweets, but also marmalade, marshmallows, waffles, and cookies began to be placed in such boxes, turning the bonbonniere into an excellent gift.

At the beginning of the last century, tin packaging began to be actively used by confectionery factories. The huge variety of sizes, shapes and colors forced people to collect such “tins” and vigorously buy them, using them for storing small items or sometimes as interior elements.

To surprise competitors and stand out from all the diversity, some of the confectionery factories made their own packaging, inviting famous painters to create unrivaled painting.
