I need to apply in one color easily (for uniforms, sealed envelopes, etc.), however I like the idea of a complex logo for printed and digital media.
Base color: black, dark brown, gray or dark blue preferably.
Complementary colors: Tiffany blue, pale pink, mint, pastels.

Most cookie shops and cake decorators have nice logos, I'm implementing the logo in these order (according to times I use it):
1. Candy bar and favor stickers
2. Cake boxes, ribbons, and bags
3. Uniforms for my staff (Chef coats, waiter aprons, t-shirts)
4. Stationary
5. Social Networking

I would like to have an element (character, símbol, figure) that can be used as a detai when using the name would be unappropriate (cake decorating)

If using characters, take Time Savers logo as a guide (we are two woman, one who makes cooking and all "dirty job" in the kitchen - my mom - dark hair, thin, wearing glasses, wears usually a chef coat with the logo and black pants; and teh one who does all organizing (think of a wedding planner), that's me: that's me, read straight hair, fair skin, hazel eyes, 30s, sporty complexion, usually dressings executive-like skirt (that's me in the TimeSavers logo))
