Who are Dormouse Chocolate?

 


Dormouse Chocolate is a boutique confectioner known for handcrafted, single-origin bars and inventive flavor pairings. With a growing footprint in specialty food markets, they prize authenticity, sustainability and artisanal quality—down to every scrap of packaging.

The Challenge:


Dormouse needed wallet-style wrappers for their premium chocolate bars that met three key criteria:

  1. Eco-Friendly: 100 % sustainable materials.

  2. Low MOQ: Orders as small as 500 units.

  3. Fast Turnaround: Production + delivery within 1 week.

They sought a partner who could balance these demands—luxury feel, true green credentials, and a budget-friendly per-unit cost—without the usual long lead times or high minimums.

What We Did:

  • Sustainable Substrate Selection: We sourced FSC®-certified, 100 % post-consumer waste stock and printed with water-based, VOC-free inks.

  • Wallet-Style Wallet Design: Developed a slim, one-piece wrap with integrated tuck-in flap—no plastic laminates or adhesives.

  • Low MOQ & Instant Pricing: Through our platform’s “500 pcs minimum” filter and built-in cost estimator, Dormouse could see exact per-unit pricing instantly and place their order with zero tooling fees.

  • Express Production & Delivery: Coordinated a 5 business-day production run in our EU facilities, followed by 2 day DHL/TNT shipping to Dormouse’s warehouse.

The Result:


Dormouse launched their limited-edition tasting collection with eye-catching, eco-certified wallets that felt premium yet cost 15 % less than their previous supplier. The entire run—500 bars with custom prints—arrived in just 7 days, ensuring no delays to their seasonal release calendar.

Dormouse Chocolate Says:

“PackLion nailed our eco requirements, budget and timeline. These wallet wrappers look and feel fantastic—our customers noticed immediately.”
