Mondelēz International Boasts New NEWTONS Packaging
Mondelēz International has unveiled a refreshed brand identity and packaging design for NEWTONS, the "Ooey Gooey, Rich and Chewy" fig-filled cookie bar that has been on the market for over 130 years.
The new NEWTONS packaging aesthetic boasts bolder graphics, an enlarged image of the bar itself, prominent 'made with real figs' messaging, and fig imagery. The design maintains the signature yellow hue, which company research data has shown consumers strongly associate with the product.
NEWTONS is available in a variety of formats, including FIG NEWTONS, STRAWBERRY NEWTONS, FAT-FREE NEWTONS, WHOLE-GRAIN NEWTONS, and more. By making the real fig filling visible and emphasizing the soft-baked, chewy texture, the new packaging design ensures that consumers immediately understand the quality and indulgence that can be found in enjoying these nostalgic fig-filled cookie bars.
