1 / 8About In a Jar Font
Picture your vintage kitchen drawer, the one with handwritten labels on glass jars and aged recipe cards tucked between the tea boxes. In a Jar by Latinotype captures that same nostalgic warmth. Designed by Coto Mendoza with technical input from Luciano Vergara, this hand-lettered display face channels grandmother's kitchen in color, form, and character. It's built to shine at display sizes and works beautifully for shorter runs of text.
The typeface lands naturally on artisan food labels, recipe cards with personality, boutique greeting suites, and DIY spice jar packaging. Its personality works especially well for food brands wanting authentic, handmade flair without looking polished or corporate. If you're designing labels for small-batch jams, letterpress stationery, or vintage-inspired cafΓ© menus, this one speaks the same language as your concept.
In a Jar includes a full complement of alternates, ligatures, and compound letter pairs to handle the handwritten quirks. You also get a collection of cute dingbats and ornaments built right in to decorate headlines or add flourishes to your layout. The big weights and alternates work hard at large sizes, making every headline feel intentional and crafted. Grab it from Creative Fabrica and start labeling your own jar of good design.
