FREEBIE OF THE WEEK: 7oz Hershey Candy Bar Wrapper Template

I was asked to create a custom candy bar wrapper for 6.8oz Hershey's with Almonds and 7.0oz Hershey's Milk chocolate giant candy bars. I thought, I will just find a template online, and create my design, right? WRONG!! This big ol' internet, and I couldn't find a template (or a printing company that prints them) ANYWHERE. Oh ya - I did find one company that prints them - for $3 per wrapper. That is highway robbery if you ask me.

So, what is a designer to do? Create their own, of course. I went to Wal Mart and picked up one of each bar. I measured the wrappers. Then I laid it out flat, and measured the distance between each section. Wala! A template was finally born.

I know there has to be other people out there with this same dilemma. I am going to be offering printing of the 7oz candy bar wrappers soon at an affordable price, and also, you can download the 7.0oz Hershey's giant candy bar wrapper template below! It is set up at the exact size, with guides to help you design your candy wrapper perfectly. 

The zip file includes a template in png, jpeg and eps file for your convenience.
