Intriguing Icing Attire Branding

These Frosting T-Shirts Sport Sweet Deceptive Packaging

— April 18, 2012 — Fashion
The beloved kitschy brand Johnny Cupcakes recently launch a line of sweet Frosting T-Shirts. Snuggled into a paint can-inspired vessel, these sweet shirts are deliciously darling. The packaging that this piece of attire sports is as fun-loving as the brand itself. Looking like oversized cans of icing, these quirky containers are nothing short of genius.

The Frosting T-shirts packaging boasts a label created by Johnny Cupcakes' resident designer Chris Delorenzo. Bright, colorful and deliciously retro, these fetching graphics fit perfectly with the brand's image. Complete with a simulated ring of runoff frosting, these deceptive t-shirt cans are wonderfully tongue-in-cheek and playful. Complete with nutrition information on the back (these T-shirts are a calorie-free indulgence), this doppleganger package will make you smile.

Deceptively clever, hip and fun-loving, these attire tins are as sugary sweet as the shirts they hold.
