TIME SAVING TIPS
EDIBLE EXPRESSIONS
Melinda Rasmussen, DecoPac's marketing communications
manager, shares that Edible Expressions is an
important trend spotlighted by DecoPac for everyday
events.
" Celebrating life's everyday moments are important, "
Rasmussen says, listing little vignettes like gender
reveal or baby cakes as examples of special events
that can be celebrated through cake.
Edible Expressions is an everyday or seasonal program
that gives consumers the opportunity to share
a sentiment of love, caring, appreciation, or " just
because " to a special someone by means of an instore
bakery product.
No special occasion is necessary. Say it with sweets!
" Edible Expressions are fun ways to really brighten
their days, " Rasmussen explains.
LIMITED TIME
OFFERS
In Rich's Quarterly Consumer Sentiment
Tracking Survey (Dec. 2022), 40% of consumers
said they do not plan to change their
bakery purchasing habits, but 20% are saying
they plan to purchase more from retail
in-store bakeries at the grocery store, and
15% are planning on purchasing more from
quick-service retail bakeries (like Panera,
Dunkin Donuts, etc.), explains Alyssa Barrett,
customer marketing manager - convenience,
Rich Products, Buffalo, New York.
Offering LTOs (limited time offers) and
seasonal flavors help generate excitement
and entice consumers to keep coming back.
When it comes to LTOs, many consumers
purchase them on impulse: according to
Datassential's LTOs Keynote Report of October
'22, 63% of consumers' last LTO was an
impulse purchase.
From the operator perspective, 61%
say that they're a profit center for their

business, making LTO strategy critical to
success.
Why is snacking in such high demand?
Snacking and eating on-the-go have become
a huge area of opportunity as consumers'
schedules continue to be flexible. We've
seen an increase in the selection of graband-go
options in the industry, including
better-for-you and higher quality offerings.
Packaged sweet snacks are a high impulse
item for consumers. To capture these
impulse purchases, Rich's suggests that
retailers display packaged sweet snacks
in highly visible areas , such as near the
register, have eye-catching packaging, offer
as part of a special promotion, or highlight a
new/unique flavor.
Also, 61% of operators say LTOs are a
profit center, making LTO strategy critical
to success. " Packaged sweet snacks are a
high impulse item for consumers, " Barrett
says. " To capture these impulse purchases,
we suggest that retailers display packaged
sweet snacks in highly visible areas. "
