Before the official release, (2020.12.30-2021.01.01) at Shanghai Creative Industry Expo (2020 第一届上海创意产业博展会) presented the final product of collaboration . 

Two different gift boxes were designed

The first box contains 3 types of candies: original milk flavor (原味奶糖)coffee-flavored toffee (咖啡奶糖) and the red bean flavor (红豆奶糖). Also, in the set, the first box includes three brooches that symbolize both brands.

The second box contains a lamp in the shape of a rabbit and milk candies. All packed in a beautiful box with an illustration of the Summer Palace.
