Our Approach

We have optimized our process and offerings to cater specifically to CPG startups, so if your family salsa recipe’s burning a hole in your pocket, here’s what you’ll experience with Gold Spark Design.

A pouch of Apple Of My Chai flavored marshmallows, by The Magical Mallow, with purple and green text on a dark green, light green, and tan background.

All projects start with a vision, whether that’s articulated by you, by us, or extracted through our “Round of Inspiration” exercise, we get super clear on what the packaging should look like.

Then comes the design process. We study themes and trends that we’re seeing in the industry and know how to deliver a purposeful packaging design that fits your specific brand and resonates with your ideal customer.

We incorporate FDA compliance, plus print-readiness throughout each step, and we will help you gather your packaging content along the way.

No logo? No problem.

We can develop a full brand identity for your company while we’re at it! Or, if you have an existing logo, we’ll ensure that your final packaging designs flow seemlessly with your existing brand materials.

What Else?

Our prices are very a la carte. Pay for what you need to launch, and that's it. We can add more later if you'd like.

We can achieve most looks, from a vintage apothecary-style design with weathered type and a textured background to a 60's/modern mashup with food caricatures, poppy colors, and the latest serif font.

Most projects include digital product mockups, so you not only get print-ready packaging designs, you get realistic renderings of your product to use in digital and printed collateral.

We advise on barcodes! And if you just don’t feel like doing it yourself, we can manage your barcodes for you, for a small fee.

Ask us anything within the realm of consumer packaged goods, marketing, packaging, and design, and we likely have an answer or know where to point you. Examples include trademarking, selling, how much packaging to start with, etc…

We partner with print companies that are well-setup to print small MOQs. And if it’s labels you need, we can manage the entire print process for you.

Meet Owner, Amy E. Park

Amy founded Gold Spark Design in 2014 and has since worked with some of the most wildly passionate, thoughtful, and quirky (in the best way) food business owners around. She fits right in.

Originally from Iowa, Amy has called Denver, Colorado home for over a decade (with brief stints in Atlanta, West Chester PA, and New York City). When not working, she enjoys walking to a neighborhood coffee shop, trying a hip new Denver eatery, basking in hot springs, baking cookies, or hanging out with her husband, Corey, and newborn son, Thomas.

We hope we can make your experience in starting or expanding a business, as easy and fun as possible!
