The idea of that foreigner's caricature 👱🏻‍♂️ turning And The Frit into an original package 🍟

Popular Petit Gifts ♡

Right now, when it comes to petit gifts for weddings, the dried fries from the French fry specialty shop AND THE FRIET are very popular.

The French fries, which capture the deliciousness of potatoes as they are fried, are flavored with options like truffle and cheese, making them crunchy and delightful.

After eating sweet cakes and desserts at the reception,

“Isn’t it nice to have some savory snacks too!?”

Many brides are choosing these as their petit gifts.

The Packaging as a Mark

AND THE FRIET features packaging adorned with a striking illustration of a realistic foreigner.

Everyone is drawn to the bold appearance!

It's a snack that makes a strong impact.

But.

You can deliberately hide the illustration of the foreigner!

A DIY approach to change it into your own original package is also recommended ♡

For example, like this ♡

Maho (@mahobride), who had a wedding at Andaz Tokyo, adorned her packaging with a sticker of her beloved dog, Kinako.

The illustration of her dog was painted by her brother, and it has the same style as the AND THE FRIET brand ♡

(It's a black-and-white line drawing, resembling a realistic style. It's incredibly well done, almost official quality!)

@mahobride

The drawings were printed as stickers, which she then individually applied on each bag.

Manami (@su.ma__wd), who held her wedding at Omotesando Terrace, used a caricature of herself and her partner as stickers for the packaging.

This illustration was made by processing a photo with an app called "Keshihan Dojo" and adding manual edits. It’s impressive ♡

The stickers were printed on the site OH PRINT.ME using 65x42 rectangular stickers (Yupo paper / matte finish). This is information worth noting ♩

I think it’s a really fun idea to create illustrations that match the AND THE FRIET style for the packaging stickers.

It makes you want to order from some talented acquaintances or artists. *

You Can Also Create Illustrations Using Apps

You can create AND THE FRIET-style line art using apps.

Manami used “Keshihan Dojo,” but,

“Graphite Sketchbook by BeCasso”

“Pencil Sketch”

also allows you to creatively edit photos into illustrations for free.

(The quality varies depending on the app, but definitely give it a try! *)

Cute Even If Not AND THE FRIET Style ♡

Up to this point, I’ve introduced illustrations in the AND THE FRIET style...

Of course!

Even without an AND THE FRIET theme, sticking your favorite caricature illustration stickers on the packaging is also cute and recommended ♡

This is a photo from Yukoiida (@yukoiida_wedding), who creates caricature welcome boards.

The originally strong foreign vibe has faded into the cute appearance of AND THE FRIET ♡

(Guests might not even realize at first that this is AND THE FRIET!)

Let’s Turn AND THE FRIET into Original Packaging ♡

While it’s stylish and lovely to give AND THE FRIET dried fries as is...

It’s also a fun and exciting idea to hide the foreign illustration and turn it into original packaging.

You can turn photos of yourselves or your pets into AND THE FRIET-style illustrations,

Or create designs that are completely different from AND THE FRIET ♡

Brides preparing petit gifts should definitely consider this for inspiration.
