The Sweet Fresh Organic Donut boxes are designed with ingredients and an on-the-go lifestyle in mind to satisfy evolving consumer preferences. Designed by Jared Gaines, the packaging features three styles in total including apple, peach and lemon with the corresponding fruit being incorporated into the shape of the package.

Being that donuts are a food often eaten while on-the-go, the packaging offers consumers a handy way to hold the dessert snack without having to get their hands sticky. Moreover, it gives the treat a more upscale touch that makes it more appealing to different demographics rather than just those looking for a quick snack.

The Sweet Fresh Organic Donut boxes are a playful and inviting [packaging concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/consumerfocused-packaging-strategies) that could help to influence how the [coffee shop treat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craving-cheesecake-collection) is perceived.
