Back to my adventures in NYC!
For as much as I love what the cheese (or food in general) tastes like, I also am a snobby graphic designer who judges things by their packages! I love cheese labels (I started to make art with them, I’ll show you once one of the posters is complete!) and I love well designed food packages. While I might not choose a cheese for its label, I would probably choose crackers or chocolate first by the way they catch my eye. I forgot to post about this soon after I got back from NYC but here is a little blurb about what I found in Murray’s, a GREAT NYC cheese shop:
The nicest crackers ever.. I have been staring at these crackers from The Fine Cheese Co. since I discovered their website. They are simple with a retro flair, with beautiful colours and graphics!

Sorry for the shoddy photography. I was a little uncomfortable setting up photoshoots of unpurchased crackers in the tiny store!
Either way.. could they be any nicer? If anyone knows of somewhere to buy these in TO let me know! They also had lots of beautiful artisan chocolate.. I only managed to snap a shot of one of them…

They had a whole line of these beautifully patterned Mast Brothers Chocolate Bars, and what goes better with cheese than lovely chocolate? I could barely bring myself to leave the store!
More on Pretty Packaging to come.
