La Crema Coffee Company

Melissa Flohn, owner of La Crema Coffee Company, a specialty coffee roaster in Cincinnati, OH, did something different in 2012: she bought the Kiaro! inkjet label printer to make seasonal coffee labels printed with whimsical artwork created by Lula Bell Art & Designs. The idea was a hit: La Crema Coffee roasted and sold over 500,000 lbs. of coffee bag gifts in 2012. After 7 months of printing coffee labels with the Kiaro! label printer, Flohn says “We love the Kiaro!.” “We went with the Kiaro! because of the colour it could achieve,” says Flohn. “When I do a trade show, the first thing I hear from my customers when they walk into my booth is, “Oh my goodness, I love all the colour – and look at the beautiful labels on that package.”
