This packaging snack mockup is a quick way to show a gum or cookie pack without a photo shoot.
Students in packaging courses and packaging designers tend to get the most out of files like this. Tip: check barcodes, weights and small legal text at 100% zoom. Packaging clients always look for those.
A realistic render saves a round of physical samples, which for packaging can take weeks. Show it with a shipping box or bag from the same range to present the whole unboxing.
Works well for
- A gum or cookie pack
- A chips bag design
- A snack brand

Editable options in the Packaging Snack Mockup PSD
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Label or box artwork, placed through the smart object
- Shadows
- Base colour of the pack
Editing the Packaging Snack Mockup, step by step
- Build the label or box art flat, panel by panel.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Change the base colour of the pack.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
Another tip: build the label or dieline flat first, then place it; bending text inside the mockup is harder to fix later.
Ways to use this Packaging Snack Mockup

Questions about this mockup
What licence does it come with?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Free Mockup Zone. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the snack pack?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
Is the design wrapped around the shape?
Round packs usually use warp or displacement so the label bends with the shape. Flat boxes use separate smart objects for each visible side.
Why does the download open another website?
We list free files from designers around the web and link to the original page, so Free Mockup Zone gets the visit and you get the file exactly as they published it.
