Spreading Cultural Awareness Through Flavor
Rick and his husband wanted to share the unique and adventurous flavors they discovered in Hawaii with the world, using chocolate as a cultural connector.
Their goal was to create a product that not only tasted good but also sparked curiosity and a deeper appreciation for the cultures it represented.
Turning an Experience Into a Product
While Rick, a seasoned chef, could easily craft the perfect chocolate for customers, turning his culinary experience into a widely embraced product required a different approach. To ensure the success of Capoloku in a competitive market, Rick needed to create a compelling brand identity and message that resonated with global consumers.
Crafting a Premium yet Accessible Cultural Experience
Iaculus focused on balancing the premium feel of Capoloku with cultural markings that made the product intriguing yet approachable. We built a brand identity that showcased adventure and exploration, reflected in the packaging and messaging. The goal was to not just sell chocolate, but to invite customers on a journey—one that linked taste to culture and left them curious to explore more.
