Think Outside The (Cake) Box

Making The Move With A Little HDU – High Density Urethane

When The Cake Box changed locations it was an opportunity to create a look and feel that matched what they do.  The Cake Box prides themselves on high standard cakes and their signage needed to reflect that.  Being that they are set back from the street with a parking lot in front, the sign needed to be eye-catching to grab the attention of those travelling in that high traffic area.  The inspiration for this sign came from decorative picture frames.  Framing a sign is a way to make your info noticeable without it looking out of place.  The key is to make it reflect the business it represents.  In this case a gingerbread style frame fit the bill.

Frame and Fortune

When creating this dimensional sign we chose to work with High Density Urethane otherwise known as HDU.  The design was carved on the CNC router table then given a high gloss UV finish.  The Cake Box individual letters were pin mounted to a backer and we gave Sweet Indulgences portion of the sign the golden touch by finishing it in 23K gold leaf.

 Final Finishing Touches

As you can see, the sign was installed and the project shows very well from a distance.

Creating ways to catch the eye of those already walking through the plaza was also considered.   Using window frosting vinyl The Cake Box specialties were displayed and a bright banner brought attention to the corner window.

 Finding ways to think out of the box are normal occurrences here at The Sign Depot.  We hope they have encouraged you to get inside The Cake Box.
