The vibrant ingredient illustrations by our first Artist-in-Residence, Casielle Santos-Gaerlan, are now live on Dear Flor’s product pages! Casielle’s bold, modern style perfectly captures the heart and soul of our gummies, blending the richness of Filipino flavors with a fresh, creative perspective.
Her art embodies the unique experience of each flavor:
- Buko Pandan: Tropical greens and soft whites mirror the soothing blend of young coconut (buko) and pandan leaves. Link
- Ube Boba: Rich purples and dreamy textures evoke the gentle tranquility of this comforting classic. Link
- Calamansi: Bright greens and sunny yellows burst with the zesty freshness of this beloved Filipino citrus. Link
- Mango: Warm golden and orange tones radiate the sunshine vibes and lush sweetness of the Philippines’ iconic fruit. Link
Each illustration is more than just beautiful—it reflects the uplifting, calming, and nostalgic experience of enjoying our gummies, transporting you straight into the vibrant world of Filipino flavors and culture.
The Artist-in-Residence program celebrates Filipino talent, and Casielle has set the bar high for future artists to share their perspectives on flavor, identity, and creativity. If you’re a Filipino artist inspired by our culture and flavors, we’d love to hear from you! Send your portfolio and social handles to kumusta@dearflor.com to be considered.
