Thank you....Always makes me warm and fuzzy to hear!
Working feverishly on an all natural version (no high fructose corn syrup) for early/middle of 2016.
Had to settle with this recipe as it fit into my limited budget at the time, and I really wanted a ketchup in my arsenal...looking to...
Scrap it is an option.....coming soon - Gemini Crow Snow Removal service...... no label neccesary!
We'll try a version! Only issue I see is that in order to fit it in the space (as is), the logo is gonna be sooooo tiny...but we can try
So to make sure I am clear on the suggestion...
Do a basic color-less version of my logo on the top of the center panel.....So it'll be in the left panel in the color of the sauce logo/sauce, but basically, black/white in the center?
i think i toyed with that idea early on but thought it...
Exactly...I'm gonna pass those links over to my designer to see if we can implement a little bit of that into the label...Just a bit, as I don't want it to be a parody or back myself into another corner, but thats the 'vintage-ness' I am looking to achieve....Gratzi!
Another part of the 're-brand' tweaking.
I don't want to corner myself within a niche or 'controversial lyrics' on the bottle...I see plenty of HS companies with crazy labels, and I can see from a business stand point how it can turn people off before they even try the sauce. I'd rather live...
Continued Thanks...
The 'Quality' descriptive term came from countless research of vintage/70's esque food labels.....I wish I could remember the product that I saw that had the 'quality' descriptor on it....It just seemed cool....
Again, I just needed to hear it from you guys....It's not...
OK, keeping it simple. Went with the primary changes and small tweaks.
still debating on the sauce description in the banner, but may just leave it to the romance panel text and marketing materials...
My buddy Jack had a band called, MuscleCar.
They have long since disbanded, hence the aneglfire based website...

I'm already re-thinking the font choice...Everyone is correct. I just needed to hear it from some other people. I'm heavily leaning towards going back to the font I have used for each particular sauce. The label edit was 98% about the barcode / nutritional panel edits, and then I just kept...
I figured if I didn't do it right when I entered, I'd wind up remembering to do it the day before....tightening up the regime over here!
May send in my 2017 entries this week as well....you know..just in case...
I knew I had to add a bar code to the labels for this round, as well as fix the nutritional panel/ingredients to be laid out vertically, instead of horizontally....It led to this.....I'm very happy...More towards where I want to take things in a branding perspective...
THEN
Just got the vendor email for the Berks (formerly Kempton) Pepper Jam for Memorial Day Weekend 2016.
This is mostly directed to Defcon John & Redhawk Dan...
This year it is a Friday & Saturday, instead of Saturday and Sunday. And Friday is from 4-10...
Not sure how I feel about...
I gave it a shot a few years back, and I am sure my experience was an isolated one, and that it can be very helpful in some capacities.
I had met with a SCORE counselor who was in the same field as I had been inquiring about. He had been retired about 15 years. In principle, his advice was...
Haven't heard or read of anything special being planned, but it's only my 3rd show....Just hoping for clear skies and a good turnout! That'll be good enough for me! :)
I use to live across the street from Virgil's...Haven't been in Times Square in a long while....Is Virgil's gone?? I know the Toys R Us is gone or soon to be gone.... :/ yet, Bubba Gump's thrives....
Thank you...Exactly what I was hoping to achieve with my labels and marketing...The colors of the sauces are so vivid, I didn't want the label to distract the potential customers eyes...TY for the nice words!!
So, I'm playing around with a 'hot' salt, using coarse ground himalayan sea salt and some dried carolina reaper flakes.
what's the best way to have the two stick together in the process and during their life sharing a grinder bottle. Want to avoid the pepper flakes drifting the to the bottom...
