First Media’s viral food brand, So Yummy, partnered with Kraft Heinz to create out of the box co-branded content that breaks through the social noise and highlights the recipe versatility of a handful of Kraft Heinz’s products.
In order to drive awareness and purchase intent, So Yummy created attention grabbing recipe content that features delicious appetizers and one pot meals that would not be complete without Kraft Heinz products. The organic content was complimented with a paid approach that drives our audience to purchase the recipes through Walmart.com.
So Yummy created a 4-part video series with both organic and shoppable content. The videos were distributed across So Yummy’s social media channels – Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, Pinterest and Snap – reaching a guaranteed audience of over 62 million U.S. consumers.
According to Tubular Labs data, with almost 30k branded videos published on Facebook in Q4 of 2022, the So Yummy and Kraft Heinz videos are among the top 20 most viewed pieces of content. Additionally, across all branded videos Kraft Heinz has done on Facebook in the past 3 years, our videos together take the top 5 spots.
The primary goals of this campaign were to drive awareness and sales for Kraft Heinz by highlighting recipe content throughout the holiday holiday season. Each organic video highlighted multiple appetizers and dishes using various Kraft Heinz products, including Maxwell House, Kraft Mac & Cheese, Ore-Ida and Oscar Mayer.
