Weiss is a luxury chocolate factory based in France, near Lyon. They contacted me at the beginning of 2022 offering to collaborate on their Christmas collection for 2023. We worked together for months to build a magical collection on the theme “Christmas around the world”.

I had the idea to create a little polar bear character who would travel the world with a cloud. You can find this main character on the products of the whole collection, taking us to different countries and discovering different traditions.

The collection includes an advent calendar, a ballotin, a chocolate box and two chocolate bars.

Each product explores a different country. The two chocolate bars takes us to the Philippines and Norway, the box is inspired by Christmas in Japan and the ballotin illustrated a snowy Canada. The calendar includes traditions and animals from many places around the world, all explained inside the flaps.
