Whimsical Candy Brand Development
Whimsical Candy was founded by someone who at age 3 packed her bag and tried moving to a candy store. Not entirely a bad idea. Now a trained pastry chef, she makes small batch sweets that blend a grown-up taste for quality with the fun and classic flavors of childhood candy. Counterform was called in early for business strategy consulting, naming, and to develop the brand identity and packaging for their signature product, La-Dee-Dahs. With great salesmanship, we were also able to negotiate a small role in product tasting. After several days of staring at these delicious little round candies, we discovered that they were staring back at us. And thus, the story began. Since it's inception, Counterform has helped manage the Whimsical Candy brand across every application and touchpoint that they have with their customers. What began as a tiny test kitchen nestled in the quite neighborhoods of Chicago is now a successful retail store in the heart of downtown. Whimsical Candy has, indeed, grown up and is fast becoming a household name with candy lovers of all kinds.
