The Concept "Awaken the Third Eye of Taste" of Thai Chocolate

Yellow Chocolate Wins DEmark 2026 Best Thai Chocolate Gift

From Local Cacao to Design Icon: Yellow Chocolate Wins the Prestigious DEmark 2026 Award

We are absolutely thrilled and deeply honored to announce that the Yellow Chocolate Series has been awarded 1 of the 12 Best Packaging Designs of the Year at the prestigious DEmark Award 2026 (Design Excellence Award)

Organized by the Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP), Ministry of Commerce, the DEmark Award is Thailand's most coveted design distinction—equivalent to Japan’s legendary G-Mark. Winning this award proves that Yellow Chocolate isn't just an indulgent treat; it is a masterpiece of storytelling, sustainability, and sensory innovation.

A Story of Youthful Genius: Designed by Torfun at Age 14

Behind the vibrant, eye-catching illustrations of our packaging lies an extraordinary story of youthful talent. The whimsical world of our three-eyed monsters was entirely visualized and hand-drawn by Nong Torfun, a remarkably gifted Thai designer who has been collaborating with us since she was just 14 years old.

Torfun’s raw, imaginative hand-drawn strokes pulsate with energy. Her artwork perfectly captures the spirit of our brand: youthful, bold, and unapologetically creative. Watching her grow alongside our brand is our greatest pride, and this DEmark trophy is a testament to the fact that young Thai designers are ready to take on the global stage.

The Concept "Awaken the Third Eye of Taste" 👁️✨

How do you translate taste into visual art? This was the challenge we set out to solve.

The Yellow Chocolate Series is a collection of single-origin and inclusion chocolates that pair premium Thai cacao with highly distinctive local ingredients like chili, holy basil (Krapow), and organic rice.

To tell this story, Torfun created a cast of imaginative three-eyed monsters. Each monster's look, colors, and textures are a direct visual representation of that specific bar’s tasting notes.

The "Third Eye" on each creature is a metaphor for the culinary awakening you experience upon tasting. It’s an invitation to open your mind, break free from ordinary flavor expectations, and step into a new dimension of Thai gastronomy.

100% Glue-less Interlocking Packaging Engineered for the Planet 📦🌿

At Yellow Chocolate, we believe that premium quality must go hand-in-hand with ecological responsibility.

That is why we spent months developing our signature Glue-less Interlocking Design. Utilizing precision paper engineering, our boxes fold and seal securely without a single drop of chemical adhesive or plastic tape.

This makes our packaging 100% biodegradable and exceptionally easy to recycle. It is a proud implementation of the BCG Model (Bio-Circular-Green Economy), ensuring that your indulgence leaves a minimal footprint on our planet.

Supporting Yod Village, Nan Province From Tree-to-Bar

Every bar of Yellow Chocolate supports a greater mission. We source our fine-flavor cacao directly from the passionate farmers of Yod Village, Song Khwae District, in Nan Province.

By paying fair trade premiums and sourcing unique local inclusions, we create sustainable, long-term income for Northern Thai farming communities while actively preserving the agricultural biodiversity of Thailand.
