The Contest Brief

Contest Holder Name: bertiesbakery 

Company Name: Berties Bakery

Company Slogan: 

What We Do: In the process of opening a bakery that does custom cakes and cupcakes along with other catered baked goods.

Industry Type: Food and Beverage

Top Three Things to Communicate Through Our Logo Design:

#1 The name "Berties Bakery"

#2 The Little "Birdie"

#3 A specialty cupcake or cake

Our Target Audience:

Customers of the bakery; people ordering custom, highend, sophisticated baked goods (specialty cakes, cupcakes, etc.)

We like these colors:

Pinks, Teals, purple I've included a handful photos: 1) One is a photo of an African Bee Eater (Bird) - I'd like my logo to have a variant of this playful bird in it with a cherry held in it's beak 2) A logo example that was previously done. I hate how it looks very cliparty - I want it to flow better. I'm not married to this design, it just gives you some thoughts. 3) A handful of logos that I like. I like the Cupcake Tree one and how it incorporates the tree with the logo (note that it may be showing up with a black background instead of the white background.) Also of note that I like/use the Harrington font - but I'm not 100% stuck on that if something similiar/better is proposed. You can see this in more detail on my site: http://www.bertiesbakery.com

Hi everyone,
I really appreciate everyone's work, especially the surge of submissions in the last 24 hours. In order to assist you in really getting at the final logo, I've narrowed down the list considerably. As you can see I'm tending to focus on simple designs that are easy to print and easy to read from a distance, yet still have my bakery name and a baked good prominently displayed. I look forward to seeing more submission tomorrow!
Thanks again and good luck!

I have uploaded some new cupcake specific pictures. I really want the logo to be playful and elegant, and I think having a really clean, 1 or 2 color, and simple cupcake is where the "elegant" is going to be displayed!

Hi,
Thanks for all of your work so far. A few general suggestions and comments.
1. I think the birds have greatly improved!
2. I really like the idea of the logo being "framed" somehow. Whether it be within a circle or a unique box/frame/bracket. This logo will be used on stickers, seals, printed cake boxes, t-shirts, etc. so I like having it contained.
3. I would like to pull back the colors a bit, I love pink, but I don't want the logo overly feminine. I don't want a sister logo to Barbie :)
4. Lastly, I have uploaded some new pictures of logos that are within "frames" that I like.

I also uploaded a few more pictures of some bird ideas. I would like to keep with the African Bee eater colors, but not necessarily the strict anatomy of the Bee eater.

Currently there are two designs that are fairly busy, and two which are fairly straight forward. I would like to be somewhere in between.
I did like the playfulness of the bird dotting the “i” in Bertie’s. I’m not married to this idea, but I appreciated the thought! I am not loving the bird though. I would like a more playful bird, without so much complexity. The bird is really important to me, and I would like it to be simple yet whimsical.

Thanks for your work so far!
