Trend Hunter has come across so many liquefied creations that I’m not surprised the Kapiti Ad Campaign has embraced the concept as well.

Created by Colenso BBDO New Zealand with some help from Charles Howells, the Kapiti Ad Campaign is definitely eye-catching. Who doesn’t need [high-end desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/godiva-x-labubu) once in a while?
