Blazing Salads, one of many artisan bakers in Ireland

Good bread was almost destroyed in Ireland – with a rush to the supermarkets to purchase white sliced pans or par-baked wonder loafs the art of baking almost disappeared.

Fortunately there remain a number of bakers with a long heritage (Keoghs in my local area being one of those) and some newcomers such as Blazing Salads. They have a great selection from a family with a 30 year+ background in good food.

Student Spotlight: Lindsay Perkins – Package Design Blog

There is no direct correlation between good design and genuine, good food nor should there be. However sharply designed packaging can help to communicate the core values of a food brand quickly and effectively.
