COPA d’ORO

Brand identity and packaging design for Copa d’Oro, a contemporary chocolate boutique and cocktail bar. Founded in 2019 by sisters Nora and Julia García, who honed their craft at a renowned chocolatier near their family home in Salamanca, Spain, Copa d’Oro weaves together tradition and modern sophistication.

The name, meaning ‘Golden Goblet,’ draws inspiration from a legendary Spanish tale, where Don Hernán Cortés, the famous conquistador, was introduced to chocolate by Aztec priest Montezuma, served in a golden goblet. This rich historical reference served as the foundation for the brand’s identity.

Copa d’Oro seamlessly blends the sisters’ old-world Spanish heritage with a modern, luxurious aesthetic. The result is a cohesive, refined brand design carried across all platforms, capturing the essence of both history and innovation.
