Not since renowned pastry chef Dominique Ansel invented the Cronut ® in 2013 has the hybrid sweets category been so promising in the bakery market.
BakeMark ® offers many new ideas for award-winning products that are sure to capture consumer attention.
Guadalajara Meat Market in New Braunfels, Texas, produces a growing line of sweet treats, 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-piece squares of Tres Leches, Pina Colada, 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 the delicious churros, the bakery’s signature treat made with cinnamon, cajeta, and a hint of rock sugar.
As for flavor trends, Aguirre explains that pineapple is becoming 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 combined with content that baking enthusiasts share on social media, it can create a hit product.
The delicious churro cupcakes are a perfect example—with a strong Spanish cultural flavor infused into this dessert.
The best part is the Trigal Dorado® churros on top, which are available in all of BakeMark®’s flavors.
Westco ®’s line of Extra Rich Hi-Ratio mixes not only gives you the flexibility to make this cupcake, but also a variety of seasonal products throughout the year.
Make the frosting a day in advance. The frosting will adhere better when the sugar is fully absorbed. Use Westco ® Super Speedee Glaze to make a premium donut frosting that lasts.
It is important for all retailers to pay attention to the flavor trends that today’s shoppers crave.
Another supermarket giant, Publix, opened a supermarket in Palm Bay, Florida, which is located on the Atlantic coast south of Cocoa Beach and has a spacious bakery area with a variety of cake flavors.
Cake flavors include vanilla, chocolate, confetti, marble, strawberry, and vanilla chocolate combination, and frosting flavors range from buttercream, chocolate fudge to cream cheese or fondant.
The fillings come in a variety of flavors: cannoli, cherry, chocolate strawberry, chocolate éclair, chocolate pudding, dulce de leche, fresh strawberry, guava, hazelnut cream cheese, lemon, pineapple, raspberry, raspberry custard, and vanilla custard.
