The brown used so prominently evokes ground, the earth, and of course chocolate. The yellow has a tint of brown in it to give it a more golden hue, reminiscent of the riches needed to purchase it so long ago. The ruby red of the cherries and the hints of sapphire blue serve to classify chocolate as a jewel of food, and treat to be savored and valued. The smooth, rich brown of the candy wrapper is representative of the finished product and visually triggers the mind to recall the feeling of smooth silkiness of rich chocolate on the palate.
The natural patterned background reminds us that cacao is what chocolate is made from, and it grows on trees. It has the appearance of bark and ties in with cherries and nuts, also products of trees.

The choice of a simple font for the advertisement keeps with the simple message of natural and organic. No fancy scripts or trendy lettering, but rather, clean simple lines. The one exception to that is the word “chocolate” in the company’s name. That font is a flourished script-like design that circles back again to the context of fancy and exclusive. The advertisement is sparse on wordy messages and keeps it simple and to the point.

The main color is yellow, which is in accord with the butter. The yellow color filled with the sky, it looks like the scene of dusk. However, the color of the brand is red. It’s like in the dusk, and the sun rises again. In my view, it give us a signal that the Land O’ Lakes will never fall down, even in the dusk, it can rise again! Some words also showing on the brand, four words are italics. They are “sweet cream” and “lightly salted”, respectively. The sweet cream and lightly salted shows the taste of the butter. Consumers can directly know the character of the butter by the words. In addition, compared with those words I discussed above, the “magic candy” and “ recipes inside” are more catch people’s eyes. Since they have blood red color, and outside of them, a dotted rectangle covers them. As far as my concerned, the dotted rectangle makes the words inside more magic. It seems like the candy indeed has magic, because it gives me a feeling of twinking. Comprehensively to see this logo, we can find that it is symmetrical and balanced in general. It emphasizes the harmonious between nature and human. Everything in the image is

When we are sad, we eat. When we are happy, we eat. We celebrate birth, life, and death with food. Our emotions are bonded with food. A simple bite of food can remind us of happier and safer times or it can make you wallow in sadness, for those happier and safer times are long gone. You can taste the love prepaid in food; it fills you up with glee. However, you can also taste the oppression in food, each morsel sautéed with anger and anguished. Food and humans have an influence, over the other; the two are emotional bound. The food in Like water for Chocolate was more than just for nourishment, it was an outlet for concealing emotions of the characters. The food expressed heartache and joy. It brought out both good and bad memories. Whether they were cooking or eating it, food was more than just, dinner to the characters.

Together with the usage of green sources to power the factory, these factors raise up the prices of a chocolate bar to the average of $5. It enhances the brand’s value and good image in people’s observation. Even though their prices are more expensive than other competitors’ prices, Theo still has a loyal following of organic chocolate customers. However, it does a very little traditional advertising. Therefore, in order to maintain the loyal customers and attract new consumers, Theo Chocolate is partnering with local and non-profit organizations that promote their company. Joseph Whinney understands that “Having the ingredients and the quality of the product is the most important thing. And then Fair Trade is the secondary message” (Lindell, par. 19), people concern about the taste, the quality, and the organic food. Besides that, Joe believes that people also care about how a company treats its employees and decide whether they wan to to do business with that company or not. Therefore, combining the two strategies is a good way for Theo to promote itself and build brand value inside customers’ minds.
Moreover, consumers and employees are also demanding chocolate companies to follow good corporate social responsibility practices in addressing the environmental concerns in terms of how to design its packaging, procurement and operational decisions. Human rights concerns are also high in terms of consumer expectations of chocolate companies with respect of forced child labour in West Africa. All of these driving forces - societal concerns, attitudes and change in lifestyles, are strong enough to shape up the competition and impose the constraint on chocolate industry profitability and competitive survival.

Art is an incredible medium when used to its fullest potential. What I mean by that is; it has the capabilities to surround the viewer with its imagery and play with the emotions. Paintings are particulary effective in doing this through the use of color tones and ‘temperature’. For example; El Greco used a lot of blue and green throughout his body of work. The outcome is that the subject matter comes off as ghostly and perhaps a little alien. This is in high contrast to Georgia O’Keeffe’s desert paintings, which utilise reds, yellows, and browns to create a ‘warm’ and appealing landscape.
