Need to show a seasonal pack to a client? This chocolate packaging mockup does the job in a few minutes.
Packaging designers and gift shops tend to get the most out of files like this. One thing worth knowing: check barcodes, weights and small legal text at 100% zoom. Packaging clients always look for those.
Packaging is judged on the shelf in a couple of seconds, so seeing the design on the real shape tells you more than the flat dieline ever will.
