Sometimes campaigns around International Women’s Day can seem a little cutesy, a little sweet. Well, this effort by Hershey’s might have a good amount of sugar in it, but we consider it anything but sweet. It’s edgy, it’s forward and damn, it’s creative.

Working with BETC São Paulo, Hershey’s took a creative approach to its packaging that built upon its name. This Stimulant editor will readily admit that she didn’t realize that Hershey’s name is comprised of two pronouns (Her/she – get it?), but that became the jumping off point for six different artists who were tasked with creating a series of wrappers for Hershey’s that reflected their tastes, their visions, their passions.

The artists chosen were illustrators Ana Flávia (@affnana) and Alessandra Lemos (@loleland), writer Luiza Mussnich (@luizamussnich), post Camila Lordelo (@euliricas), and musicians Yzalú (@yzalu) and Bruna Mendez (@brunamendez). The campaign incorporates their art through packaging, written copy and even QR codes linking to the musicians’ respective songs. The wrappers include either the “Her” or the “She” of the Hershey name, fashioned into phrases like “She sings” or “Her illustrations.” Hershey’s is going further in-depth with a showcase of the artists’ talents online and on social media.

One word: sweet.

The campaign launched March 5.
