Project overview

The challenge
A beloved bakery that sold out every holiday but still took preorders by phone and paper.
Brand direction
Pennsylvania folk warmth: lattice, cherry, butter.
Creative approach
A lattice mark built from two rivers, a slab serif wordmark, and a preorder page that matches the pie box.
Design decisions
Cherry and butter come straight from the pies. The scalloped edge echoes a crimped crust.
