Branding

The other day at work one of my suppliers came to see me.  It was, I suppose his annual visit and being the lovely supplier he is, he bought me in a present.

When I saw the box the first thing I said to him is that this company has really thought a lot about their brand.  Inside this exquisite box were two of the yummiest cupcakes I have ever had the pleasure of tasting (lovely Jim and I shared them).  But before I even knew what was in this box, which I must say was ideal to carry home on public transport, I was already won over by whatever the product must be.  I knew I was going to like it.


Branding is so important to any business and after having been the recipient of Bea's of Bloomsbury's products I am certainly going to be looking at mine.  It's on my to do list and will be something I address.  


We have to think about how we want to be perceived.  What we want or customers to feel and also, what type of company we are...traditional, funky, modern, contemporary.  When I saw this box, I knew the product would be quality, carefully made and come from a beautiful environment.  It oozed everything I would want in a brand.


Well done Bea's of Bloomsbury for not only creating the best cupcakes I have ever eaten, but for creating a brand that goes with it.

Happy Monday


Daisy and I made cakes yesterday.  Lots of them.  We decorated them with buttercream and added lots of sprinkles. 

It was just what I needed - some creative baking time, watching Daisy select and individually place every type of decoration on one cake, and then pick one to devour.

The simple pleasures in life are amazing.

Love and peace to you all
