Shopify & E-commerce — Case Study

CRUX

A Shopify store for a premium healthy snack-bar brand — bold flavour up front, and a shopping journey engineered to convert.

SMART SNACKS. SERIOUS CONVERSION.

CRUX makes premium snack bars with nothing to hide: 12g of protein, 3g of sugar, gluten-free and 100% real chocolate, across seven flavours — Chocolate Crunch, Honey Cinnamon, Peanut Butter, Milky Way, Passion Fruit, Rocky Road and Strawberry Crunch. We designed the store as a digital ecosystem: storytelling up front, smooth user flows underneath, and every page built to lift average order value and subscriptions.

The journey runs homepage, shop and product pages, a slide-out mini cart with cross-sells, and a frictionless checkout with Shop Pay — with subscribe-and-save bundles doing the heavy lifting. Big type, warm colour and flavour-first photography keep it bold at every size, from desktop down to the phone in your hand.
