Kraft Macaroni and Cheese is changing its name

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese is changing its name and iconic blue box and introducing ... Kraft Mac & Cheese.

The new look updates all aspects of the brand identity: the name, the logo, brand colors, typography, photography, iconography, and packaging. The change from “macaroni and cheese” to “mac & cheese,” is meant to reflect the way fans talk about the brand. The iconic blue box now features just a single-color hue of blue and amplifies the brand's most recognizable asset — the noodle smile, now even more delicious and dripping with creamy, cheesy goodness.

“We know that people aren’t turning to comfort food as a guilty pleasure, they are positively embracing comfort, saying yes to feeling good, saying yes to caring for themselves,” said Victoria Lee, Kraft Mac & Cheese Brand Manager. “There is a familiar, craveable, positive comfort to Kraft Mac & Cheese that makes it so special and iconic to millions of people across the world and our new look is a reflection of what our brand means to our consumers.”

The new look will appear across social channels and on the website this summer and packaging will start to hit shelves in August.
