We are launching a new salsa! "Savannah's Sweet Apple Pie Salsa" (Savannah is our 15 month old) We have two other Salsas that we have a standard label format. We would like this one to follow the same formatting, the only thing that really changes is the center graphic. This however, is a "special" salsa so feel free to embellish a little if you would like. the download links provided are of the two other sauces we make, also our logo two "leaves" we use for other purposes and a pic of Savannah and her family (this can be incorporated in the label if it would work but is not really expected and it might look crappy so you choose).

The Salsa Is Mild, sweet and really tastes like apple pie (a bit odd sounding but it works) It is called: Savannah's Sweet Apple Pie Salsa That must be in the label ingredients and nutrition I can put in after the fact. The label background must be white because the printer sucks at full bleed.

Nice contest

May I ask about the container?
Glass jar? metal? or a bottle for example ..?

[HHandF]

The link below is a different product in the same size and type bottle.

3.5" diameter 4.25" tall.

Product Details

The label itself is 7" x 2.75"

Sorry I didn't include that info originally.

This looks to be a fun and tasty project. I'm looking forward to working some ideas up for you

What file format does your printer require.

The printer interfaces with corel 10 (not my printer) The guy that works it says jpg is preferable. He spent the 10grand on the printer I'll just do what he wants.

I don't want my reply to prejudice anyone else that might be designing something .... But, this is right along the lines we were thinking.

Notes:

"Savannah" has 2 "n"s

The Product name "Savannah's Sweet Apple Pie Salsa" shouldn't have "salsa" in it because "salsa" is already prominently on the label at the base of the image...I hope i am describing what I mean well enough :-)

Thanks for participating...we will be dong a Pumpkin pie salsa too this year, I love this site.

I fixed the "N" and removed salsa on the image base bar

Hi Sharie,

We really like your latest design @ 09-26-2009, 02:45 PM, It stays with the "look" of our other products but stands out, Can the pink be a bit more bright, less pastel?

Hi Robyn,
Your design is cool, but too far from how our sauces's are currently branded, Heather and I have to talk about such a big change. I'll try to give better feedback soon (maybe today likely tomorrow)

Thanks Guys!

A brighter pink version

oh..okay, i will try a new, thanks

[HHandF]

Hi Robyn,

We talked about it last night, We are trying to establish a brand image and we would like to be consistent with how the products show on the shelf. we think that it is just a bit too far out from our other offerings.

We really did like it though.

[robyn]

here's a revision; i choose 'savannah' as a bee icon... it's more stable icon and brandable.

Hi Sharie, I am very happy with your design. There are some minor changes that I would like to see but otherwise what you have produced is what we would hope for. I have been trying to get some time AHHhhhhh


I wanted to go online somewhere and find a pink that is less fuchsia but brighter than the one in the first design.

The red in the chile Designating Mild would be better in green.

Minor stuff.
