Hello Designers!

First of all, thank you for participating in our contest!!

Next, while the loaves of bread are absolutely beautiful and usually denote a bakery, we are definitely not baking bread (not yet, and even so, not with wheat, so the wheat stalk is definitely out since many people avoiding gluten will avoid anything looking like wheat or other gluten grains).

We make granolas chock full of nuts & dates, chocolate mud cakes, fantastically delicious and nutritious muffins, linzer tortes (a pastry, with hazelnut, and a jam), cheesecakes (dairy and gluten free but sumptuous).

The basics of our company is all natural ingredients (organic but not always), no GMOs, no chemicals, no artificial anything, just pure, basic ingredients (nut flours but not peanut), olive oil, flax, stevia sweetener, etc....but desserts and granolas that test better than anything that you've ever tasted WITH gluten or dairy. We've been gluten free and dairy free for 25 years (not by choice for the dairy) and have created our own, much demanded, recipes and confections.

Lastly, something simple but lively (think Izze, Justins Peanut butter) and hip and fun with color (not just orange and brown and not necessarily orange or brown at all) to make it come alive (ie Izzes is very recognizable with color, but simple). It could have just a few colors, but would need to really stand out and have the vibe we are going for. Again, pure, simple, delectable treats (muffins, granolas, cakes, pies, whoopie pies) GF and dairy free.

Thank you!!! We appreciate you all and look forward to an amazing logo that says all that and more! :) Nancy

Thanks!!

Please see the uploaded photo of the monk I like. A REAL man. Not soft and boyish. Please see the image. A friend of mine (Judy!) took this in Thailand during a trip to an orphange that she supports. :)

Hi Designers!

Please click on the contest attachment with "thailand" in the jpg for an ideal monk that we have in mind. Thanks! A second one is coming with his hands raised...you could have his raised hands holding a big mixing bowl maybe? Thank you!
