Action Items for National Donut Day 2023

May 10, 2023May 10, 2023 by Ryan McCoy

Action Items for 2023 National Donut Day

What is America’s favorite holiday that doesn’t include “Ho. Ho. Ho.”? You guessed it – it’s National Donut Day. Yay! Donut stores. Retail bakeries. In-store bakeries. Panaderias. Any location selling donuts has an opportunity for extra sales, profits, and fun!

Here are important action items for this year’s National Donut Day:

ACTION ITEM: Circle June 2 on your calendar with a big red marker. National Donut Day falls very early in June this year, so be sure the last week of May is also clearly marked for our donut holiday preparation!

ACTION ITEM: Be ready by ordering sufficient supplies NOW. There will be extra media attention for this big day, so make sure you stock up on all your basic supplies in advance: mixes, icings and glazes, fillings, sprinkles, and paper goods. You may experience larger-than-normal bulk orders as offices, schools, agencies, and businesses all celebrate the holiday together – so – be ready!

ACTION ITEM: Put your marketing hat on, and get busy! BakeMark can help you decorate with in-store posters and package stickers. Take pictures of product, customers, and your store to post on social media using the hashtag #NationalDonutDay to generate local excitement. Encourage your customers to do the same and create exciting trends. Big trends equal big sales! The bigger the trend, the larger your sales can grow!

ACTION ITEM: Remember our military veterans. They have sacrificed so much for us all and while they deserve much more praise and celebration, we honor them on National Donut Day. Maybe you are thinking – what do veterans have to do with donuts? Great question! In 1938, the Salvation Army began honoring veterans and the relief efforts during WWI. The “Lassies” went into the battle zones to help care for the soldiers. The most requested snack? THE DONUT! Hence, National Donut Day was established to celebrate veterans, Lassies, and donuts.

ACTION ITEM: Utilize your BakeMark Sales Representative. He or she has experienced the highs and lows of National Donut Day and can help you plan, implement, and organize for increased customer count and product mix. Much better than a computer program, your Sales Rep can offer real-life suggestions for you and your store.

ACTION ITEM: Have fun. This is a day devoted to our profession and to our products. Enjoy!

BakeMark’s Line of Fruit-O Flavors Gives you Unlimited Variety and Marketability

April 20, 2023April 20, 2023 by Ryan McCoy

BakeMark’s Line of Fruit-O Flavors Gives you Unlimited Variety and Marketability

Fruit-O Concentrate Flavors

Just think of the endless possibilities when you use these Fruit-O Concentrates for your batters,
dough, or icings:

Banana Fruit-O
Blueberry Fruit-O
Cherry Fruit-O
Cranberry Fruit-O
Lemon Fruit-O
Orange Fruit-O
Pineapple Fruit-O
Strawberry Fruit-O
Raspberry Fruit-O

Try them all. You’ll love the results – product, display case, and sales!

Now You Can Say “Today’s Special”…And Mean it! With Fruit-O Flavors

Here’s a sure-fire way to run a “daily special” and really mean it. Take advantage of Westco Fruit-O Concentrates to broaden your product line and give you the opportunity to dazzle your customers with a display case full of unbelievable variety and endless deliciousness.

Make Your “Daily Special” Really Special

A mistake some bakeries and donut shops make is buying a bag of mix for every flavor, which limits their variety, adds food cost, and takes up valuable storage space. For example, if you only buy Cherry Donut Mix, your boring “daily specials” could look like this: Monday – cherry cake donut / red icing; Tuesday – cherry cake donut / white icing: Wednesday – cherry cake donut / pink icing; Thursday – cherry cake donut / red sprinkles, Friday – cherry cake donut / white sprinkles, etc.

Instead, use Fruit-O Concentrate to give your display case endless variety and REAL daily specials. By adding just 1 – 3 ounces of Fruit-O to your regular batter, dough, or icing, you can create endless combinations of colors and flavors. How about this lineup to interest your customers. Monday – lemon cake donut with raspberry icing; Tuesday – Banana Cake Donut with cream cheese icing: Wednesday – Pina Colada donut with pineapple cake and
coconut iced topping; Thursday – Orange cake donut with Vanilla icing; and Friday – Blueberry cake donut with blueberry swirl icing. Fruit-Os are very highly concentrated to maximize flavors and reduce food costs. Just buy one bag of cake donut mix. Every time you add Fruit-O Concentrate, you save on bag of cake donut mix you don’t have to buy!

And More…

We’ve highlighted the donut mix as a prime candidate for the addition of Fruit-O Concentrate. But why stop there? Use Fruit-O Concentrate for all types of batter, doughs, and icings. We give you suggested weights, but you can customize your product to your every whim. Ask your BakeMark Sales Representative for suggestions and tips on proportions and mixing techniques. He or she is a pro at helping stretch your food budget and using Fruit-O Concentrate.

And Even More…

Fruit-O Concentrate is so versatile, so adaptable, and such high quality that you can even create your own custom salad dressings using it as an ingredient. A current BakeMark sales representative assists several hotel chains with Blueberry Fruit-O and Orange Fruit-O to make their own versions of unique and noteworthy vinaigrette dressings. Ask your BakeMark sales representative if he or she has any tricks up their sleeves to add a memorable custom twist to your product offering. Not a computer screen. A real, live BakeMark sales representative!

A Celebration Of Pi: The Many Different Types Of Pie

March 9, 2023March 9, 2023 by Ryan McCoy

In celebration of Pi Day (March 14th), we thought it would be fitting to do a blog on… pies! This day is perfect to increase your pie sales just for a single day. There are so many different types of pies, and BakeMark has the ingredients you need to make them ALL! Whether you want to offer sweet or savory, fruity or chocolatey, BakeMark has all the ingredients you need to serve your customers a wide variety.

WHAT IS PI?

Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14), in honor of the mathematical constant, pi. “Pi” is the name given to the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. It is calculated as 3.14, or 22/7, and is usually abbreviated to 3.14 (or simply “Pi”). Pi is an irrational number and has an infinite number of decimal digits. However, here at BakeMark we like Pie more!

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PIE

There are, literally, hundreds of different types of pies, each one with its own unique flavors and textures. Some of the most common pies include apple, cherry, pecan, blueberry, lemon meringue, key lime, and of course, pumpkin. However, there are also more unique varieties such as chicken potpie, shepherd’s pie, dirt pie, and so much more. Not to mention savory pies like quiche, spanakopita, samosas, and empanadas. There is something out there for people who like sweet pies as well as savory pies.

THE HISTORY OF PIE

The history of pies dates all the way back to the ancient Egyptians. Fruits, nuts, and honey filled the earliest pies and were not sweet. It was not until the 16th century that sugar was added to pies, becoming a favorite among the wealthy. The pie evolved over the years, with new ingredients and recipes being added to the mix. Today, people eat pies all over the world as a part of countless cultures and cuisines.

WHY WE LOVE PIE

There are countless reasons why we love pies. The main reason is BakeMark has ALL the ingredients your bakery needs to make them! We have a great Westco Snot Block Crust Base (Google it!) that makes for a great pie crust. The name is funny but the quality is not, and it will make your life easier for National Pi Day. Also, we have endless possibilities for fillings. BakeMark’s line of fillings ranging from apple to peach, to blueberry to pumpkin will allow you to celebrate Pie Day in whatever way your customers like. They’re perfect for any occasion- from the holidays to family get-togethers, potlucks, and more.

Before the holiday even arrives, you should have a clear idea of the types of goods you want to offer, how much of each item to make, and what decorations you want to incorporate. For example, if you’re planning to make these rainbow cupcakes, make sure you have enough Extra Rich White Cake Mix. You should also plan for any additional decorations or displays you want to put up. This could include adding festive signs advertising your special St. Patrick’s Day treats. You could also hang up colorful banners decorated with shamrocks and pots of gold. Whatever decorations you choose, be sure to plan ahead and have everything ready to go before the holiday arrives.

GET YOUR GREEN ON

The second way to make sure your bakery is ready for St. Patrick’s Day is to get your green on! Since green is the main color of the holiday, you should make sure to incorporate it into your decorations and products. With just a little bit of creativity, you can give your goods a splash of Irish spirit. For example, you could mix a little green food coloring into Westco’s Sup-R-Fluffy Vanilla Buttercreme Icing to make your cupcakes stand out. You can also add a little green to your decorations as well. Create a special St. Patrick’s Day display in your window with green streamers and shamrock decorations. You can even use a few pots of gold or rainbows to add a little extra festivity. Whichever decorations you choose, make sure that you’re emphasizing the color green to get your customers in the St. Patrick’s Day spirit.

EMBRACE THE IRISH SPIRIT

The third way to make sure your bakery is ready for St. Patrick’s Day is to embrace the Irish spirit! To really get into the holiday spirit, you should offer fun activities to your customers. This could include hosting a 24-hour “St. Patrick’s Day Baking Marathon” or “Irish-inspired decorations” contests. You can also offer a few fun promotions, such as “Buy one, get one free” or “double Irish points” for customers who purchase your St. Patrick’s Day goods. You can also encourage your customers to celebrate with you by hosting a special event in your bakery. This could be a live Irish band playing traditional tunes, a dance competition, or a green costume contest. This is a great way to get your customers involved in the holiday and make your bakery stand out in the local community.

GO ABOVE & BEYOND

The fourth and final way to make sure your bakery is ready for St. Patrick’s Day is to go above and beyond. One of the best ways to do this is to offer unique goods that your customers won’t find anywhere else. Take the extra time this holiday and create these Good Luck Donuts and even charge a premium for them. A unique special LTO is always a great way to make a little more “green” on this holiday. These unique items will make your bakery stand out from the competition and encourage customers to come in and try something new.
