Descriptions
The mooncake festival is as much about the visual storytelling of the gift as it is about the delicacies inside. The 2025 collection from Alice Cafe Bangkok exemplifies this through a masterclass in minimalist luxury, using a design language that speaks of mystery, tradition, and premium craftsmanship.
Material and Construction Techniques :
The box is constructed using rigid board (set-up box) technology, known for its durability and high-end feel. It features a telescopic (lid-and-base) structure, which provides a satisfying "slow-release" opening experience—a hallmark of luxury packaging. The surface is wrapped in a matte-finish specialty paper, providing a soft-touch texture that prevents fingerprints and gives the box a contemporary, understated elegance compared to traditional high-gloss finishes.
Embellishment and Branding :
The focal point of the lid is the branding, which utilizes Gold Foil Stamping. This technique involves pressing a metallic pigment onto the paper using heat and pressure, creating a slight indentation that catches the light.
Color Psychology : The "Midnight Sky"
The choice of a Deep Navy Blue (Midnight Blue) is intentional and highly symbolic. While traditional mooncake boxes often lean heavily on red and gold to signify luck, Alice Cafe opts for a more atmospheric approach.
The Night Sky: The blue represents the vast night sky where the full moon resides.
Design Concept : A Modern Heritage
The core concept behind this design is "Celestial Minimalist." By stripping away the cluttered floral patterns often found on mooncake boxes.
