Pillsbury: The Best Memories are Made at Home
The Pillsbury Doughboy is arguably the most iconic brand mascot. But for far too long, he’s been in the background, showing up only on end cards and after thoughts. With a refreshed brand identity, we brought The Doughboy to the front of screens and gave him a seat at your table. No longer was he just a part of the baking story, he was now THE story. His newfound goal: to help make the best memories at home with you and your family.
Through TV, social, digital, print, OOH, we ensured The Doughboy’s innocent, goofy tone was represented throughout our campaign. We leaned into his iconic doughy figure to represent him in a more abstract, macro form and used bold typography and colors to emphasize his larger than life personality.

Real Memories with Real Families
To capture the essence of our campaign, we used three real families and captured them making real memories with Pillsbury. The authenticity these families brought was visible in every shot we took.
