MOSTown Garden Time Travel Exhibition
Over 100 exhibits to show the history of Bakery in HK
The first generation of Garden Lift Bread was launched in 1960s. This is the packaging design. The product was the first to add vitamins and minerals, and features blue and white checkered wax paper packaging to keep bread fresh and hygienic. Today, the checkered of Life Bread is still iconic of the Garden. |
In 2001, in order to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Garden, a special edition of previous Garden truck models was launched with total of 4 models. The tailgate of each model car can be opened, and each truck has a unique certificate number, which is of great commemorative value. At that time, the redemption response was enthusiastic, and it was very popular among consumers and collectors. |
In 1979, Garden established an ice cream factory and launched a variety of ice cream products. The classic “Super Star” ice cream pop, with 3 layers of flavors and rainbow chocolate chips was very popular. |
Garden Biscuit tins from the 1930s to 1940s were modeled on the company’s vehicles. the star logo on the can was the Garton brand logo at that time. “BUY IT BAKED” was the advertising slogan emphasizing freshly baked bread and biscuit. |
In the 1950s to 1960s, Garden’s assorted candy were mainly aimed at children, with different themes and patterns, including small round cans in the shape of a post box, and others with beach laughter, ocean, flowers, etc. |
Garden started producing mooncakes in the 1950s. It was also the first in Hong Kong to use tins as the packaging for mooncakes. The theme of the packaging design was “Beautiful Flowers and the Full Moon” to express the good reunion of people.
|
In 1959, Garden offered customers a monthly installment payment with a discount for the “Mooncake Club”, as not everyone could afford the one-off expenditure at that time. The moon cakes were handmade with limited production. |
A variety of promotional posters from 1960s, including life bread, Chinese New Year candies, pop pan, gala crackers, etc. Each poster is full of features with slogan and product. |
