Concept
The goal was to capture the joy of cracking open a golden yolk — freshness, nutrition, and happiness in every egg. The design avoids overly traditional farm clichés, instead opting for a modern illustrative style that feels lighthearted, memorable, and family-friendly.
Design Elements
Illustrations: Whimsical, hand-drawn hens, cracked eggs, and sunny-side yolks bring a sense of fun and warmth. Subtle doodles of grass, sunshine, and baskets emphasize natural origins.
Logo Placement: The Golden Yolk logo is positioned prominently at the center, acting as a seal of quality and trust.
Color Palette:
Golden Yellow – representing the yolk’s richness and the heart of the brand.
Bright White – symbolizing purity and freshness.
Soft Green Accents – evoking nature, fields, and sustainability.
Typography: A bold, clean sans-serif headline for brand presence, paired with playful handwritten-style accents for the fun messaging (“No yolk, just quality!”).
Messaging
Short, witty egg-related phrases are integrated into the packaging to reinforce the friendly tone of voice. Examples:
“Eggstra Fresh.”
“Happy Hens, Golden Yolks.”
“Farm to Fork Goodness.”
Social Media
To establish The Golden Yolk as more than just an egg brand: a source of freshness, fun, and golden moments at the table. Social media is the primary space for building emotional connections, educating about quality, and inspiring daily food rituals.
Brand Voice
Friendly, playful, and warm. The tone mixes light humor (egg jokes, puns) with authentic storytelling about freshness, nutrition, and family moments.
