Sharapova’s Gummies
Launched last week, Sugarpova is a new line of twelve premium gummy candies in different, self-described “fun, unexpected” types and shapes imagined and “sold” by tennis superstar Maria Sharapova — hence, the product’s name — who is not just one of the great women tennis players of our time winning 27 WTA singles titles that include four Grand Slam singles titles but, at 25 years old, she is also a very astute business person, ranking 26 in Forbes’ World’s Highest Paid Athletes list that shows that $22 million of her total $27.9M earnings to date come from endorsements. Sugarpova will be sold at fashion store Henri Bendel in New York, available at hotel minibars, and at their own website. The new logo and packaging was designed by Brooklyn, NY-based Red Antler.

Deutschen Tennis Bundes
Established in 1902, Deutschen Tennis Bundes (DTB for short, German Tennis Federation for English) is the governing body of tennis federations and clubs in Germany, with more than 1,800,000 members.

Thanks to Marc Nijborg for the tip. Via Das Design Tagebuch.
