Our latest collaboration with Floryo brings fresh perspective to gifting. Inspired by the dance of sparklers against a night sky, we created a premium gift pack that houses their signature freshly-milled flours.
The design merges festive elements with nature-inspired motifs on a deep midnight green canvas, reflecting Floryo's commitment to natural goodness. Each pack tells a story of wellness, featuring four carefully curated flours and a personalized recipe card that transforms every gift into an experience. Here, thoughtful design meets mindful living and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Transforming the Saffola Millets
How did Elephant transform Saffola Millets into a modern, must-have evening snack? Here’s the packaging story that sets it apart!
How do you position a healthy, traditional grain as a modern, convenient snack? For Saffola’s new millets range, that was the challenge we faced. At Team Elephant, we designed packaging that blends health with a fun, aspirational appeal, making millets exciting without losing Saffola’s core brand identity. The result? A dynamic pack that highlights the product as a quick, delicious snack—perfect for busy evenings or downtime in front of the TV. By focusing on vibrant colors, a fresh horizontal layout, and Saffola’s signature heart-shaped elements, we created a design that balances familiarity with innovation. Ready in 3 minutes, these millets are set to redefine the evening snack game!

This design has successfully launched in South Indian markets, where "YES" is the crystal-clear response to whether energy can reverberate through powerful packaging!
