The brief and approach
Context
A self-initiated website for a fictional Dubai home bakery. The brand, menu, prices and ordering policies are illustrative; this is not a real bakery or client.
Problem
Visitors need to understand the menu, compare serving sizes and share the details of a custom cake without a complicated ordering flow.
Approach
Connect a visual homepage to a filterable menu, individual product pages and a custom enquiry form. Include delivery and lead-time information before visitors start an enquiry.
Development
Semantic HTML, mobile-first CSS and vanilla JavaScript are generated with Node.js. Sharp produces responsive WebP images. The interface includes menu filtering, a native dialog and local enquiry validation.
Result
A multi-page business website with menu details, FAQs and a message preview. No enquiry is sent, no live ordering service is connected and no conversion results are claimed.

Simple, readable supporting text gives the name room to stand out.
The website uses Libre Caslon Display with DM Sans.
04 / LOGO APPROACHES
One identity.
Different settings.
The wordmark follows the bakery website’s lowercase styling. The reversed version and compact S&S mark are portfolio extensions for dark backgrounds and small profile spaces.
