There's no better way for operators to ensure a perfect dining experience from beginning to end than with fine- baked Devonshire desserts. Devonshire offers sweet indulgence in every bite of the wide selection of classic and contemporary bakery products that are made with care and attention. From red velvet mini cakes to caramel apple pie to black currant cheesecake, each dessert is ready to thaw and serve and has the delicious eye appeal and taste of a handcrafted, artisan- quality treat. Brand Statement defines the products and benefits of the brand. It’s generally used on websites, sell sheets, guides and any promotional pieces that showcase several items of that brand. 3 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES BRAND VOICE Brand Voice BTB Devonshire desserts are made with the finest, freshest ingredients. Each dessert is ready to thaw and serve, and has the delicious eye appeal and taste of a handcrafted, artisan-quality treat. To tell that story, the tone is “sell with a smile” to make it appropriate and engaging. Three to four descriptive sentences paint a picture of the dining experience each product creates. The “sell” is a description of product attributes. The “smile” is a slice-of-life statement that lightens the mood of the copy in an attempt to endear the brand or product to the customer. 4 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES BRAND MARK Brand Mark The Devonshire logo assumes the shape of a doily with ribbon accents, bringing a boutique (or homemade) bakery feel. It recalls the highly-cherished tea experience that is often associated with the upper class. An image of a cupcake (with the help of the “bake shop” descriptor) points to the brand’s specialty, while simple lettering maintains an approachable feel. 5 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES PROTECTED SPACE & MINIMUM SIZE Protected Space & Minimum Size To maintain the integrity of this high-quality brand across all applications it is important to abide by the rules laid out in these guidelines, starting with the protected space and minimum size. The logo should appear no smaller than 0.75 inch wide in any application. An alternate, simplified version of the logo may be used when cruder printing processes demand. Always respect the clear space around the logo; it should always measure the width of the letter "E" in "DEVONSHIRE" of the logo. 6 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES INCORRECT USE OF THE BRAND MARK Incorrect Use of the Brand Mark ® ® ® Do not change the color. Do not add a drop shadow. Do not rotate the logo. ® ® ® Do not skew. Do not scale Do not remove or change disproportionately. the graphics elements. ® Do not place on top of busy photography or background color. 7 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES PRIMARY COLOR PALETTE Primary Color Palette The combination of black and purple sets a distinguished, yet very approachable tone. The touch of purple not only showcases the baked goods for which Devonshire is known but hints at the royal ritual of high tea.

Gotham is a geometric sans-serif chosen for its clean, legible and appealing qualities. Available in a broad range of weights and styles, condensed styles dominate the Devonshire brand to complement the lettering of the logo. Berthold Akzidenz Grotesk supplements Gotham. Gotham HTF Bold Condensed ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 Berthold Akzidenz Grotesk Bold Condensed ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890 9 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES PHOTOGRAPHY Photography Devonshire food imagery is light and refreshing. Often paired with salads and fresh greens, the lighting is airy and soft. Delicious food photography is a very important part of every brand when designing collateral and print ads. It is essential that it looks appealing and fresh with food that is always plated on white. Pay close attention to food styling; the food should look like it was prepared in a restaurant by an experienced chef, not like a home-cooked meal. Devonshire images should be photographed with a short depth of field for a soft-focus background. This effect may be achieved in post production. 10 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES PHOTOGRAPHY Glamour Shots (Sell Sheet Covers) Application Shots Delicious food photography is a very important part of ingredient or flavor story.

The tone exactly mimics the US Foods program that it's a part of (The Scoop, Food Fanatics®). In fact, it is recommended that we lift much of the copy from the printed materials and use it as a base to create the digital works. For experiential marketing applications, there should be no limits to creativity to delight and engage customers. That includes the US Foods voice. The copy must be bright and fun to encourage the reader to participate. 12 DEVONSHIRE® GUIDELINES OMNI-CHANNEL APPLICATIONS Sweet Indulgence in Every Bite Devonshire® offers sweet indulgence in every bite of its wide selection of classic and contemporary bakery products made with care and attention.

OC13061 The fruitcake capital of the world Jan Grimes Georgia Southern University Michael McDonald Georgia Southern University John Leaptrott Georgia Southern University Abstract Two different fruitcake companies in the same small town are discussed and their widely different strategies are presented. Each of the entrepreneurs began working with a “master baker” as little boys but later followed different paths to develop a successful fruitcake business. A brief history of the fruitcake is offered as evidence that the product has been around for hundreds of years and will likely not go away anytime soon in spite of the ridicule and humor that has surrounded fruitcakes during the past twenty-five years. Keywords: fruitcake, entrepreneurship, family-owned business, strategy, competition The fruitcake capital OC13061 INTRODUCTION According to legend, the fruitcake, was first made during the Roman Empire.

We spoke to American cake decorating sensation, Ron Ben-Israel (right), who revealed how he and his team made the star wedding cake. How did it come about that you made the wedding cake for Sex and the City 2? We were contacted by the team of set designers for the movie who had seen our work in the media. We’ve also cooperated in the past with Swarovski Crystal to showcase their newest products on cakes. How did you come up with the design? We were given the parameters by the set designers: an elegant, white, over-the-top wedding setting. Interestingly, the design didn’t call for the use of sugar flowers, for which we are well known; the key words were “frozen water” and “sparkle”. There was to be no colour in the cake, just white, transparency, and reflection of light. We started looking at chandeliers for inspiration, but most of the shapes had too much flare on the bottom to become elegant cakes.

    Birthday Cakes: History & Recipes By Mary Gage & James Gage Copyright © 2012. All Rights Reserved. No portion of this article may be republished without written permission from the authors. www.NewEnglandRecipes.org History and Origins of Birthday Cakes & Candles The tradition of celebrating a person’s birthday with a birthday cake and lit candles originated in 18 th century Germany. In 1746, Count Ludwig von Zinzendorf of Marienborn Germany celebrated his birthday. Andrew Frey, one of the guests, gave a detailed account of the party: “… the Houses to be illuminated on that day, which was accordingly done. They fetch Waggons full of Boughs, and with them covered the whole inside of the Count’s Hall, which is a hundred feet long, and forty wide … that it looked like an Arbour, and also hung up three brass Chandeliers, each of seven candles. In it also are four Pillars which were hung full of Lights spirally disposed. Wooden Letters above two Feet long were made to form the Name of LUDWIG VON ZINZENDORF, and these being gilded with Gold, were fixed to the Wall amidst a Blaze of Lights. The seats were covered with fine Linen set of with very sightly Ribbons. A Table also was made, representing the initial Letters of the Name of the Person who was the Subject of the Festival; there was a Cake as large as any Oven could be found to bake it, and Holes made in the Cake according to the Years of the Person’s Age, every one having a Candle stuck into it, and one in the Middle; the Outside of the Court was adorned with Festoons and foliage …” [Frey, 1753: 15] In Germany, children’s as well adults’ birthdays were also celebrated with birthday cakes.

  • Coconut Cake, Crunchy Texas Toasted Pecan Cake, and Rich Fruitcake
    GD01e01.qxp 8/13/2008 3:33 PM Page 13 CAKES GD01e01.qxp 8/13/2008 3:33 PM Page 15 Cakes are the ultimate Southern dessert. The elegant cre- ations are especially in evidence at Thanksgiving and Christmas when tables groan beneath platters of delicate Coconut Cake, crunchy Texas Toasted Pecan Cake, and rich Fruitcake. Cakes are important to other celebrations such as Mardi Gras when the colorful Kings’ Cake plays an essential role in the festivities. The yeasty, ring-shaped dessert is deco- rated with sugar crystals tinted with brilliant carnival colors: purple, green, and gold. Traditionally, a bean or pecan half is tucked inside, and the finder is named king of the next party. Cakes appear frequently throughout Southern history. George Washington’s mother, Mary Ball Washington, was among our first cake-makers. She served fresh-baked ginger- bread, accompanied by a glass of Madeira, to General Lafayette when he visited her at Fredericksburg. Showy Lord and Lady Baltimore Cakes are thought to have been named for the third Lord Baltimore and his Lady, who arrived in 1661 from England to govern the land which later became Maryland. Writer Owen Wister became so enamored with the taste of Lady Baltimore Cake that he named his novel Lady Baltimore in 1906. The moist, fruit-and-nut-filled Lane Cake, named for Emma Rylander Lane of Clayton, Alabama, became a sensation in 1898. Mrs. Lane published the recipe in her cookbook, Some Good Things to Eat. It has been called the “Southern Belle” of cakes. Southerners are prone to associate cake making with love and friendly concern.
