Tim Hortons' 2020 limited-edition holiday packaging is based around an "It's the Most Wonderful Tims of the Year" theme that covers specially designed hot beverage cups, hot beverage sleeves, Timbits boxes and donut boxes. The festive packaging embraces a snow-white exterior with red and green elements, plus playful imagery like antlered Timbits and maple leaves that take the place of mistletoe.
Knowing that people are looking for sweet ways to warm the hearts of others this season, Tim Hortons created packaging designs with spaces for people to write who the hot beverages or baked goods are for. The festive packaging is set to appear in restaurants as of November 12th and soon, the holiday menu will be unveiled.
