Case Study Details
Chupa Chups has launched its hardest-to-open lollipop ever — to introduce its easiest wrapper yet.
In “Chupa Chups Impossible,” created by BBH London, the brand leans into years of online complaints about difficult packaging and turns them into a cultural moment.
The campaign introduces a carbon composite “Final Boss” lollipop, encased in industrial-grade materials — blade proof, flame proof and nearly human proof — hiding a redesigned, easier-to-open wrapper inside.
Influencers including The Hydraulic Press Channel were sent the Impossible lollipop to test its durability.
But beneath the stunt sits something more strategic:
– Social listening
– Product development
– Packaging engineering
– Community engagement
– Influencer activation
Chupa Chups says the new wrapper will roll out globally by the end of the year.

THE FINAL BOSS OF CHUPA CHUPS
People have been complaining about Chupa Chups packaging for
decades. So to launch our new, easier-to-open lollipop, we hid it
inside the hardest-to-open wrapper ever. A carbon composite
shell, wrapped in Keviar®, coated in silicon carbide and dipped in
liquid rubber. 250 were sent around the world and put to the test.
We turned our biggest flaw into our biggest campaign ever.
