The drink is repackaged to resemble the iconic bottle packaging, but that is in fact entirely edible. The decieving appearance of the beverage offers a new and experimental way to consume the beloved drink. Morena DIY transforms the bottle of Coca-Cola into a solid form using few ingredients that replicate and maintain the bottle's shape while simultaneously turning the product inside into a firm product. The conversion is done using gelatine that renders the liquid solid inside the bottle. Then the plastic is removed with the Coca-Cola retaining the imprint of the packaging. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Edible Packaging:** Creating edible forms of traditional packaging offers a novel and sustainable way to consume products. - **Solid Beverage:** Transforming beverages into solid forms introduces an innovative and exciting way for consumers to experience their favorite drinks. - **Experimental Consumption:** Exploring alternative methods of consuming popular products opens up opportunities for unique and immersive consumer experiences. ### Where This Applies - **Food Packaging:** The food packaging industry can explore the development of edible packaging solutions to reduce waste and provide new sensory experiences for consumers. - **Beverage Manufacturing:** Beverage manufacturers can consider the production of solid beverage options to expand their product offerings and cater to the growing demand for unconventional consumption methods. - **Food and Beverage Retail:** Retailers specializing in food and beverages can showcase and promote experimental and novelty consumption experiences to attract and engage customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Retro Soda Collab Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-drinkware.md) - [Bottle-Shaped Shampoo Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dissolving-bottle.md) - [Eco-Friendly Soda Bottle Caps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocacola-uk.md) - [Peelable Dissolving Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dissolving-bottle.md) - [Carbonated Milk Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ps-milk-sodas.md) - [Transparent Soda Bottle Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-bottle.md) - [Bubble Tea-Style Juice Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cappy-bubble.md) - [Lockable Soda Bottle Caps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lockable-bottles.md) - [Mixed-Reality Cola Billboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-coca-cola-billboard.md)
