“The logo emblem is based around the basic shape of a classic round bread board - in essence where the whole bread making process begins. This identity system allows for ease in naming and dating by the staff, ensuring that both staff and customers alike are sure of the freshness of each product. Authentic paper and cardboard materials have been used across the range of branding materials which helps to reaffirm the brands homemade characteristic.”
