Tara Gartlan Chocolate: Easter Eggs Packaging Design
Showcasing the Packaging Design of these beautiful Easter Eggs which are a great addition to the Tara Gartlan Chocolate range, handmade in Carrickmacross by Michelin star pastry chef, Tara Gartlan.
The beautiful boxes continue the brand style introduced with the bonbons box packaging – exuding quality, the gold-detailed curvy lines take cues from the free-flowing way that chocolate is poured and the natural flowing lines in nature, as many of the ingredients are grown locally, guaranteeing the most fragrant flavours.
