Fanta is making the most of its advertising. Coca-Cola’s orange soda brand has released an edible print in a range of the Middle East lifestyle publications to promote the new improved taste of Fanta. Consumers don’t have to buy the drink to try the new “deliberately orange” flavor—they can simply eat the promotional page, as it is printed on a rice orange-color edible paper. In this traditional playful manner, Fanta encouraged fans to share the tasteful ad with others.
