Baking Mad

A tastier experience

Baking Mad is a hub for a smorgasbord of baking brands, with over 1,600 recipes and a devoted team who constantly whip up more. In the pandemic, baking was more popular than ever.

The problem

The site just wasn't delivering. Search was ineffective, it wasn't optimised for mobile, and the CMS was painful to use. The branding and positioning needed a rethink too.

The solution

First of all, we went for a headless CMS with Kentico Kontent. This made uploading and distributing content effortless, across any channel or device. It's now a lightning-fast experience.

We also workshopped a new strategy, to 'inspire the baker in everyone'. So the visual design got heaped spoonfuls of modernity and likeability, with fresh new type and colours.

Our favourite moment

Using the power of Kontent to create Alexa-friendly recipes for bakers with messy hands.

“Working in a truly agile way has been a real eye-opener. It feels like we're going into a new year with a new platform in a really good place.”
