Label of the Month – November 2025
Dishoom’s Cranberry & Chilli Chutney is a seasonal favourite and this year’s edition deserved a label that reflected the same level of care and character found in the jar. Known for their thoughtful approach to flavour and design, Dishoom consistently brings a distinctive identity to their retail range and this festive chutney is no exception. Featuring it as our November highlight is a natural choice, and another example of how Label Apeel works closely with premium brands whose commitment to craft matches our own.
For this label, their team brought a clear visual direction: bold red, confident typography, and a festive touch. Our job was to turn that concept into production reality, selecting the right stock, foil and finishing to make the design land exactly as intended.
The Print Solution
We built the label on Tintoretto Gesso, an uncoated textured stock that immediately raises the tactile quality of any premium food label. The design is lifted with hot foil for the gold accents, adding a festive edge without looking overstated.
A high-rub matt varnish protects the print from scuffs, essential for a self adhesive label going through filling, packing and transport.
Finally, a measured emboss adds depth to the central mark so it catches the light while keeping the finish refined.
Final Thoughts
This seasonal label pairs Dishoom’s confident design language with a print specification that enhances its texture, warmth and festive appeal. It’s an excellent demonstration of how considered production choices can elevate your self adhesive labels, especially in seasonal ranges where shelf presence matters. We’re proud to feature it as our November Label of the Month and even prouder of the partnership behind it.
