One of the most iconic images from Mexican culture is the sugar skull as related to the Dia de los Muertos celebration, which the MEXICO Food & Liquor hot sauce bottles take into consideration.
With four bottles in all, the MEXICO Food & Liquor sauces are packaged in a die-cut box that reveals the skulls on the bottles for the consumer to fixate on. The textured exterior of the box allows the focus to remain on the interior product, whilst ensuring everything is kept secure.
The MEXICO Food & Liquor sauce bottle packaging is the work of design studio Studio 6 and helps to expand the brand's offerings in a new, innovative way while still staying true to the brand's original identity.
