Cholula had built brand recognition on hot sauce — now they wanted to expand into a new category. We took the elements that made the brand instantly recognizable and translated them into wing sauce, building new brand assets in the same style to feel like a natural extension rather than a departure. The result is a look and feel rooted in the existing brand, but distinct enough to carve out its own space on shelf.

Built for a Touchless World
As restaurants adapted during the pandemic, Cholula saw an opportunity for innovation. Partnering with Simplehuman, we led the industrial design of Cholula's touchless dispenser, a new form factor built for the demands of restaurant use, with a refill system designed for ease, letting employees swap product quickly and keeping the line moving for customers.
To bring the product to life, we captured lifestyle photography and produced a product video showing exactly how it worked, from dispense to refill. Dynamic, lively graphics kept the Cholula flavor turned all the way up throughout.
