Animated Chocolate Campaigns

Zang Chocolate's Series Shows Caffeinated Chocolate Fighting Sleep

In order to illustrate just how energizing its caffeinated chocolate can be, ZANG Chocolate created an all-new animated campaign showing how its product may be used as a "weapon" to fight sleep.

The four-episode series introduces a bold cast of characters, including the villainous El Fatigo, Reina Caffeine, El Choko and their lovechild, ZANG. In order to emphasize the effectiveness of its caffeinated chocolate, ZANG purposefully crafted each episode's story so that it "always ends on a cliffhanger to keep the audience up at night."

The first episode of the lively series from ZANG, which is now available for viewing on YouTube, details 'The Birth of a Tasty Hero.' In future episodes, ZANG promises that the universe in which this series takes place will grow continually more romantic, dangerous and mysterious.
