Why Jazz Up Food Labels for Easter?

For many Americans, Easter Sunday simply wouldn't be complete without the candy and chocolate that have become a well-loved part of the holiday, which represents a stellar opportunity for confectionery companies to revamp their food labels - and, indeed, their products themselves.

Whether your enterprise is planning to replace its regular candy and chocolate with bunny-, chick- and egg-shaped equivalents or is simply looking to position its offerings as the perfect Easter egg stuffer, product labels are crucial at this time of year. Many of your competitors will be switching up their packaging for Easter, so if you stick to the same old design, your wares will likely get overlooked.

Add Pizzazz to Package Labels and Reap the Seasonal Rewards

How important are eye-catching seasonal package labels? According to the National Retail Federation's recently released Easter Spending Survey, an overwhelming majority of people who are planning to celebrate Easter this year anticipate buying candy (nine in 10, or 89.3 percent, of the more than 6,300 consumers who took part in the poll). The NRF projects that more than $2.2 billion will be spent on sweet seasonal treats in 2015.

"Americans are eager to dip their toes in the fresh green grass this Easter and celebrate the day with friends and family," commented Pam Goodfellow, director of Prosper Insights and Analytics, the research firm that partnered with the NRF to conduct the study. With $2.2 billion up for grabs among confectionery companies, the more vibrant and attention-grabbing your product labels, the better.
