Sugar of Wagu Candy

Packaging Design Sugar of Wagu Candy by Jie Yang Sugar of Wagu is a packaging design for a traditional candy made from grain amaranth seeds in Hubei, China. The candy is a local delicacy of the Tujia people. The hard paper shell is printed flat and then folded into the shape of a tiger, and the sweets are held in the colorful belly. All colors come from Tujia brocade patterns and are extracted from local plants. These natural pigments fade after about one year, so the package returns to nature. The design aims to make a little-known regional specialty familiar to a wider public.
