MODERN MAIZE
December 2025
Project Summary:
Modern Maize is a brand design breaking the mold of package design for cornbread on your supermarket shelves. Stepping away from the undirected and unchanged blue on white of competitors “Jiffy” and Krusteaz, Modern Maize takes the cornbread being served on your dinner table back where it began- with American farmers and natural, GMO-free ingredients straight from farm to table.
Playfully designed to resemble a corn husk, Modern Maize grabs attention on store shelves, and challenges the sweeter mixes on the bakery aisle by presenting cornbread as more than just a second-best treat.
Meeting value-oriented bakers where they are to provide quality, sustainability and build local community between farmers and shoppers.
