Iced Graphics, a leading North West based digital and creative agency, were pleased to win the pitch to design the packaging for an exciting new product that has just been launched by Uncle Joe’s Mint Balls.

Wigan’s Famous Sweets Since 1898

The company also offers many different equally delicious products such as dandelion and burdock sweets, treacle caramels, winter nips, chocolate limes, chocolate covered cinder toffee, liquorice and aniseed strong mints, cherry lozenges and herbal cough candy.

A New Direction – Tasty Sweets With Added Benefits

Recently the company’s focus has been on the future and creating and marketing new, exciting lines, that will also stand the test of time; introducing products that existing fans of the brand will enjoy but that also encourage a new, younger customer base too. They have also moved into the beverage market with an Uncle Joe’s Mint Balls flavoured Vodka and Gin.

Gareth Winnard, director and general manager of Uncle Joe’s, comments: "We saw the trend in the market with the increase in demand for functional confectionery and wanted to offer a new product that would be on trend and also diversify a little from our existing portfolio of products.

Kevin Hoyle, director of Iced, comments: “We are really pleased with the final product packaging of the new Breathers energy sweets, as it showcases our clients vision perfectly and what our branding team at Iced can create.

"We believe our design will stand out on a shelf and make consumers stop and take notice. Our team have very much enjoyed being part of this journey and especially our free samples, which we can highly recommend when you’ve not had much sleep or to perk you up on a busy working day. Like the original Uncle Joe’s, I can personally recommend them for relieving a sore throat or cold – worked a treat on mine! Here at Iced, we don’t believe in delivering bog standard template design work; whether it’s packaging, digital or print you can be assured our ideas will get you noticed!”
