Photography: Eli AbramowitzAs part of NC Chocolatier’s broader packaging system, I designed a modular box system for the brand’s line of premium confections. The project began with a practical need: the company wanted to introduce half-pound offerings, expand its customizable gifting options, and replace confection trays that could not be shipped reliably.
The solution was a compact modular system that could work across NC Chocolatier’s full confection menu. Each box could stand alone as a half-pound gift or be combined with other boxes to create larger curated assortments. This gave customers greater flexibility while creating a more consistent and scalable packaging structure for retail, ecommerce, and corporate gifting.
To develop the system, I measured each confection and used the average dimensions to design a box with two interchangeable insert formats. This allowed the same exterior package to accommodate a wide range of products while keeping portions, pricing, and presentation consistent across the line.
The final system replaced the company’s wooden trays and traditional gift boxes with a more versatile gifting model. What had once been a grab-and-go assortment became a customizable experience, allowing customers to build a gift that felt personal, considered, and fully aligned with the NC Chocolatier brand.
After assessing confection offerings and sizes, I consolidated 15 product lines into one streamlined packaging system. Utilizing two swappable inserts, the modular confection box works together with 15 different confection SKUs for a shippable, quality presentation and product.
The confection boxes were designed as a standalone, budget friendly option, or apart of a larger customizable gift box and tray system. This in-store packaging experience feels immersive, cohesive, and bespoke.
