The vibrant candy packaging that the Peruvian brand 'Fruna' offers is a shift from the brand's previous design.

After detecting the need to [revamp its brand identity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-nature-1), Fruna enlisted the creative agency 'Brandlab' to create the packaging for its candy. The resulting brand identity is bright and colorful, a perfect reflection of the candy that it seeks to represent. The boxes feature images of fruit in crescent shapes, while accompanying symbols turn them into faces -- much like reinterpreted emoticons would look like. The vibrant candy packaging comes in multiple bright colors that aim to [appeal to children](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frubes-relaunch).

The brand Fruna was able to revamp its identity in a way that targets its most important demographic.
