About this typeface:
Originating from a how-to lettering book from the 1950’s, Cuisine refreshes the script style found on food and beverage labels in the early 20th century. This creamy-looking font does for food advertising what Bodoni does for haute couture. Its simmering, hand-scribed charm captures the complexity of wine and the robust energy of coffee. It shines on luxe food packaging or high-end menus.
The OpenType version of Cuisine includes additional ligatures and alternate characters.
