Alternative to Museo Slab? With fun-like serifs

oksavik2 April 2012 · 06:35

Hi, I am working on a FMCG product range for a dairy company, and had initially chosen Museo Slab (500) as my supporting font family... Unfortunately I have to find another font, so after numerous hours of searching I have yet to fint one that suits the purpose. The product range is for a cream cheese product and so I initially wanted the serifs to be 'cream-like'. I currently have Vista Slab as a good nr.2 option, but I am not convinced.. Any help would be much appreciated! (attached sample of Vista Slab and Museo Slab)
Thanks heaps! ®

Thanks for the suggestions! They are both very good alternatives, I'll set them up for further developement. I have also found another candidate which I will present. Fontin by Jos Buivenga, who also designed Museo.

To add one more, what about Sauna from Underware (with nice ligatures and swash characters available)?
