2. Candy bar wrapper mockup
This chocolate bar wrapper mockup came in handy for four of the clients that I worked with in the past few months.
Even though it consists of only one layered PSD file, it still offers endless possibilities. I particularly like the four different knit lines that come out of the box.
You insert your artwork via the smart object, which rapidly speeds up the process.
Note: You can make a see-through version or solid.
Good. STUFF.

Here’s a LITTLE secret: I used this foil packaging mockup for a bunch of projects, candy and non-candy-related.
The seven views sort out every side of the bag to easily showcase any design or logo idea you have.
Also, every element is on a separate layer (lights, shadows, etc.) for quick editing and effortless configuration. But you can always flip through the help document (just in case!).
Fine candy bag presentation awaits!

Mmm, gummy bears! Those were one of my favorites.
Are you ready for the one-click mockup showcase creation? You only need to locate the smart object layer after inserting the file into Photoshop.
From there, you drag and drop your design, and THAT’S IT.
A cool thing about this one is that it comes with three types of hangers, plus the non-hanger version.
Also, make the candy visible or not, both options are possible.

To be 100% candid with you, I didn’t even have to use all five mockups for my projects. But I’ll definitely use the angled ones on my next one.

The only downside is that the file dimension isn’t the biggest (2000 x 850px & 900 x 1500px).
