Bring the nostalgic charm of an old-fashioned French épicerie into your home with our Bouillon KUB art print, a colourful vintage-inspired poster celebrating traditional French food packaging and advertising.
Exclusively designed for The Little Brocante Shop, this striking illustration takes inspiration from the distinctive red and yellow packaging of Bouillon KUB, a familiar name in French kitchens for generations.
Featuring four beautifully illustrated examples of traditional-style bouillon packaging, this artwork captures the bold typography, vibrant colours and unmistakable character of French grocery advertising from years gone by.
At the top of the design, the words “BOUILLON KUB” appear in enormous navy blue and red lettering, accompanied by the traditional-style advertising phrases Le vrai goût du bouillon and Depuis 1912.
Beneath the lettering, a collection of old-fashioned bouillon tins and cardboard boxes is arranged against a warm, aged cream background.
A cylindrical red tin with bold yellow KUB lettering sits alongside a rectangular yellow and red cardboard box, both featuring the simple, confident graphics associated with early twentieth-century commercial packaging.
Below, another bright red box features the words Goût unique, while a cheerful yellow tin displays the phrase Le cube qui fait du bien.
Each container has been illustrated with distressed surfaces, gently worn edges and carefully reproduced vintage-style lettering, creating the appearance of much-loved grocery packaging discovered in an old French kitchen cupboard.
At the bottom of the composition, a single golden bouillon cube sits beside the playful advertising slogan:
“Un petit cube... et tout un plat !”
The combination of vivid red, golden yellow, deep navy blue and warm antique cream gives this artwork a wonderfully nostalgic feel, reminiscent of traditional French food advertisements and old grocery shop displays.
Perfect for anyone who loves French culinary heritage, retro advertising, colourful food packaging and charming country interiors, this print makes a wonderfully distinctive addition to a kitchen, dining room, breakfast nook or pantry.

A Little French Inspiration
Bouillon cubes have long been a familiar ingredient in French home cooking, bringing rich savoury flavour to soups, sauces, stews and traditional family dishes.
Bouillon KUB became particularly recognisable through its striking red and yellow packaging, bold lettering and memorable advertising.
During the twentieth century, French grocery brands often used colourful tins, illustrated cardboard boxes and distinctive typography to make everyday household products stand out on shop shelves.
These practical containers have since become part of the visual heritage of French kitchens and traditional épiceries.
Today, original French grocery tins and advertising materials are appreciated by collectors for their decorative qualities, nostalgic colours and connection to everyday domestic life.
Our Bouillon KUB print celebrates this tradition through a collection of vintage-inspired food packages, carefully arranged to evoke the atmosphere of an old-fashioned French grocery shop.
The worn metal tins, bold red and yellow boxes, nostalgic French lettering and warm parchment-style background combine to create a print full of character.
Whether displayed in a rustic farmhouse kitchen, a cosy breakfast nook or alongside other retro French food advertisements, this artwork brings a cheerful touch of French culinary nostalgia into your home.
Designed exclusively for The Little Brocante Shop.
