I'm really excited, so hope you don't mind me sharing. I have finally got a logo for my business which means i will soon have a proper website!!!

I started my business over a year ago, but had to put things on hold when i fell pregnant. Now my son is 4 months old I'm ready to start building things up properly (albeit slowly)!

My darling little sister has knocked me up a logo as a starting point for my web designer (who's working in exchange for cake!)
Don't you just love bartering!!!

My honest opinion?

I think it's a beautiful, elegant logo.

BUT

I don't care for the eye-piercing pink! A softer, perhaps even dusky pink might be nice?

I wish your new business every success. icon_biggrin.gif

It is VERY pretty but, I also see that eye piercing pink. Definitely go a bit softer of a pink.

Pft, don't listen to anyone who doesn't like your pink. Trend/Marketing wise that sweet pink color is very appealing to the bakery consumer. What I also like about it, is that you A) used an actually fairly neutral pink, B) you used very classic shapes: Circles & Stripes, which never go out of style. I see a lot of people jumping on the hot pink, teal, zebra print band wagon these days and that is hot NOW, but that isn't going to be hot over the long haul, and you want a timeless branding that people are going to recognize as long as you're in business and beyond. icon_smile.gif Awesome job and congratulations! icon_smile.gif

That's the only reason I commented!

It's apparent that different people are viewing a different pink. Whether that's due to different browsers or whatever, I don't know. But the colour I see is neon which I just didn't think was in keeping with the very elegant design of the logo.

As I said, I only commented because the original poster asked.

Love it! Simple, cute...but not too cutesy...and definitely not too pink. I only saw a soft pink! Perhaps others have their desktop screens colors calibrated too hot.

I also see a soft pink. I think it's a very nice and professional looking logo. I agree that the color differences are probably due to differences in the settings on people's computer screens.

i welcome all comments! And it's useful to know just how different it appears on differnt computers.

Was definitely going for a paler elegant pink.

Thanks for taking the time to look and feed back x
