This chocolate company is placed in Bolivia and founded by Roberto Mamani Mamani, a world-famous Indigenous painter from the Aymara nation. The core concept aligns with the Heirloom Cacao Project – to preserve wild cacao trees’ biodiversity and provide the cacao farming communities with financial support and resources. Taking inspiration from Mamani’s Aymara symbols, the vector illustrations communicate the vivid, colorful connection to nature on the packaging of chocolate bars, crisps, and truffles. The flavor palettes are based on cacao pods native to the Amazon River Basin, such as Boliviano, Beniano, and Criollo. After designing and building physical packaging prototypes, this chocolate project expands with a paint-by-numbers set to form the Nibble and Paint Kit to embrace Roberto Mamani Mamani’s skill.

After designing and building physical packaging prototypes, I expanded this chocolate project into a paint-by-numbers set to form the Nibble and Paint Kit, as a way to embrace Roberto Mamani Mamani’s skill.
All of this wonderful photography was done by Daniel Moyer.
