Cutea packaging certainly appeals to the consumer on a more personal level, considering that each of the three varieties has been dressed up with enchanting physical features that have them resembling sweet young girls. Perhaps Chen-Ming Chan, Chloe Hue and Shi-Jia Yeo of Malaysia did up these [adorable cartoons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paddington-in-peru) with inspiration from their own appearances.

Jasmine, rose and chamomile are the trio of scrumptious choices of the infusions, and each of the flowers associated with these [aromatic mixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lipton-teas-infusions) is fixed into the hair of the illustrated girls on the [small cubic boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skinny-tea). The pretty accessories compliment the lovely grins on the pink lips of the characters. Cutie Cutea packaging opens up at the mouth so that one can remove a teabag at a time.
