# Christmas Candy Calendars Studio Nemo's Chocolate Promotional Holiday Gift By Marissa Liu | Published 2009-12-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-calendar References: [thedieline](http://www.thedieline.com/blog/2009/12/countdown-candy-calendar.html) & [seriesnemo.es](http://www.seriesnemo.es/index.php?/laboratorio/pack-bombones-navidad/) This beautifully designed candy calendar by Spanish design studio Series [Nemo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nemo-stargaze-evox) was a special holiday promotional item. The candy calendar was created and given out to the studio's clients as a unique and festive greeting. Featuring [dark, milk, white and orange-flavored chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coxco-advent-calendar) the candy calendar from Series Nemo isn’t an advent calendar, as there are far more than 25 chocolates arranged in the shape of a Christmas tree. **Implications** - One of the most effective forms of short-term marketing for a company is seasonal marketing. By investing in new products during special times of the year (Valentine's Day, Christmas, Mother's and Father's Day), the company can benefit from a boost in purchases if they market themselves as the ultimate holiday gift. By attracting consumers to their specialty products, the company stands a good chance of attracting those same consumers to their other products. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Seasonal Marketing:** Companies can benefit from boosting purchases by investing in new products during special times of the year and marketing themselves as the ultimate holiday gift. - **Unique Promotional Items:** Design studios can create and distribute beautifully designed candy calendars as a unique and festive way to greet clients during the holiday season. - **Non-traditional Advent Calendars:** Design studios can create non-traditional advent calendars, like Series Nemo's candy calendar, with more than 25 chocolates arranged in the shape of a Christmas tree. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Marketing:** Companies can use seasonal marketing strategies to boost purchases during special times of the year. - **Design:** Design studios can create unique and visually appealing promotional items, like candy calendars, to impress and engage clients. - **Confectionery:** The confectionery industry can explore innovative approaches to advent calendars, like Series Nemo's candy calendar, to attract customers during the holiday season. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Textural Chocolate Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kinder-holiday-mix-countdown-calendar.md) - [Luxe Confectionary Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-chocolate-advent-calendars.md) - [Premium Chocolatier Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sees-candies-advent-calendar.md) - [Spooky Halloween-Themed Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloweenthemed-advent-calendar.md) - [Oceanic Chocolate Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guylian-advent-calendar.md) - [Festive Advent Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/advent-campaign.md) - [Inaugural Candy Brand Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chupa-chups-advent-calendar.md) - [Artisan Chocolate Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-advent-calendar-1.md) - [Retro Candy Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-advent-calendars.md)
