Bakery & Pie Shop · Demo website

Saltwind Pies

A bakery's website should feel like the shop smells. This demo pairs rich photography and editorial typography with the practical pieces — what's fresh today, the full menu, where to find the shop — and ends with a simple inquiry form so special orders don't get lost in DMs.

Saltwind Pies is a fictional business we invented for this demonstration — not a client. The website is real and fully working; the business, its reviews, and its story are illustrative.

The problem this design solves

Special orders buried in the DMs

What happens to a small-batch bakery when today's bakes live on social media and custom orders arrive five different ways.

The starting point

Special orders arrived through social media DMs and voicemails and got buried; visitors couldn't tell what was actually fresh today.

What the design changes

Today's bakes sit front and center, and special orders land in one inquiry form with the details already filled in — so requests don't get lost in DMs.

Design notes

Editorial on top, practical underneath

The design leans editorial — warm photography, generous margins, a serif with some personality — because a bakery sells an experience before it sells a pie. The practical layer sits directly underneath it: what came out of the oven today, the full menu with prices, and where the shop actually is.

The daily-bakes section is the piece that earns a return visit, so it is built to be updated in under a minute. A section that is a chore to change goes stale, and a stale section quietly teaches people to stop checking. The order-inquiry form asks for the specifics a baker needs before quoting — date, size, occasion, allergens — so a request arrives ready to price instead of starting another round of messages.

Make it yours

Your bakehouse, presented like this

Your bakes, your prices, your story about the ovens. The editorial treatment suits any small food producer selling on craft — a roastery, a creamery, a smokehouse — and the inquiry form reshapes around whatever you need to know before you can quote.
