Shaggy Design is responsible for the utterly endearing appearance of these snack sachets that feature pairs of people picking produce from trees, of the variety used as ingredients inside. Walnuts, pumpkins and almonds are harvested by the cheery characters on the small resealable pouches that contain Chinese jujube walnut cake, pumpkin seed cake and almond halva sherbet, respectively. With its fun farming images, its brightly colored bags and its adorable drawn scenes, Salico Pastries packaging must successfully seduce a sweet-toothed consumer base, different from its share in the Taiwanese wedding cake industry.
