Since renowned pastry chef Dominique Ansel invented the Cronut ® in 2013, the dessert hybrid category has never been more popular in the bakery market.
BakeMark ® offers many new twists on the award-winning product that are sure to capture consumer attention.
Guadalajara Meat Market in New Braunfels, Texas, produces a growing line of desserts such as Ate de membrillo, a tart jelly made by cooking quince and sugar until they set.
Other offerings at this popular Spanish bakery in South Austin include single-serve Tres Leches, Pina Coladas, and Chocolate Sandwich Cookies.
Gerardo Aguirre, co-owner of Guadalajara Meat Market, notes that customer favorites include pineapple-filled Campechanas (a crispy square pastry) and delicious Churros, the bakery’s signature treat made with cinnamon, cajeta, and a hint of rock sugar.
Speaking of flavor trends, Aguirre explains that pineapple is increasingly popular. He’s grateful to work with quality suppliers like BakeMark®, which keeps him ahead of the curve.
“We’re a great partner for BakeMark®,” he says proudly.
BakeMark® believes that seasonal hits always win big. When baking enthusiasts share content on social media, they create hits.
The delicious churro cupcakes are a perfect example—a dessert that’s steeped in Spanish culture.
The best part is the Trigal Dorado® churro on top, available in all BakeMark® flavors. Westco ® ‘s Extra Rich Hi-Ratio line of mixes not only gives you the flexibility to make this cupcake, but also allows you to enjoy a variety of seasonal products year-round.
Make the frosting a day in advance. When the sugar is fully absorbed, the frosting will adhere better. Use Westco ® Super Speedee Glaze to create a long-lasting, premium donut frosting.
All retailers must pay attention to the flavor trends that today’s shoppers crave.
Another supermarket giant, Publix, opened a supermarket in Palm Bay, Florida, located on the Atlantic coast south of Cocoa Beach, with a spacious bakery section that offers a variety of cake flavors.
Cake flavors include vanilla, chocolate, confetti, marble, strawberry and vanilla chocolate combination, and frosting flavors range from buttercream and chocolate fudge to cream cheese or fondant.
The fillings come in a variety of flavors: cannoli, cherry, chocolate strawberry, chocolate éclair, chocolate pudding, caramel dulce de leche, fresh strawberry, guava, hazelnut cream cheese, lemon, pineapple, raspberry, raspberry custard, and vanilla custard.
