The brand refresh is launching with an eye-catching and modernised new look and feel. The design introduces the new tagline, "Creating Smiles Since 1914", highlighting Butterkist’s established heritage .


Bringing the "bursting with irresistible enjoyment" brand positioning to life, the redesign introduces new vibrant colours to both Sweet and Salted flavours. Solid colour backgrounds have been replaced with more visual patterns, alongside a more playful font. The Butterkist heart has also received an update.

“With sharing occasions increasing as a result of spending more time home, we have remained focused on improving the in-home experience and in keeping Butterkist top of mind when choosing a snack for those nights in," said Kevin McNair, Marketing Director at KP Snacks.

Worth £1.56bn, the largest within CSN, the sharing segment is currently experiencing growth of +13.6 per cent. At twice as large as its nearest branded competitor, Butterkist enjoys a 38.2 per cent share of it. The Butterkist brand is worth £52.7m RSV and growing in value +18.3 per cent.

Kahlúa goes undercover for St. Patrick’s Day

Cocktail lovers can rejoice this St. Patrick’s Day with the release of Kahlúa’s “Schneaky” Espresso Martini glass. Disguised to look like a pint of stout, the specially designed, hand-blown glass sneakily conceals an Espresso Martini inside a pint glass. The crafty solution was created following research revealing that cocktail lovers feel “St. Patrick’s Day pressure” to drink stout – even if they don’t savour its flavour.

According to the study, around two in three drinkers (64 per cent) have felt the need to order a "certain stout drink" to fit in and nearly half (42 per cent) fear they might be judged poorly for choosing a cocktail over a pint on St. Patrick’s Day. Enter the Schneaky Espresso Martini glass by Kahlúa – a saviour for many cocktail lovers on 16 and 17 March.
