The data were analyzed descriptive qualitatively by using the theory of semiotic proposed by Saussure (1983), theory of meaning proposed by Barthes (1967), and supported by theory color from Wierzbicka (1996). Through the analysis, it found that, the advertisements are composed by verbal and non-verbal signs. Both signs contain denotative and connotative meaning. The denotative meaning consisted of the name of products, ingredients, also functions of each product.
