Scoops & Cookies
brand guide

One page that keeps the website, signs, menus, boxes and social posts looking like the same shop. The pink and cocoa are carried over from the current logo, so regulars still recognize it.

Logo

A single scoop on a waffle cone, with the name set in a soft, rounded serif. Use the full logo wherever there's room; use the cone alone where space is tight (social avatars, stickers, the favicon).

scoops & cookies

Primary, on white or cream.

scoops & cookies

On dark cocoa.

The cone mark alone.

Do

  • Leave space around the logo at least as wide as the cone.
  • Keep "scoops" pink and "cookies" cocoa.
  • Use the cone alone at small sizes.

Don't

  • Stretch, outline or add shadows.
  • Put the logo on a busy photo.
  • Recolor it outside the palette below.

Colors

Mostly cream and cocoa, with pink as the accent. A little pink goes a long way.

Scoop Pink#F389AF

The scoop in the mark, highlights, sale signs. Not for small text.

Berry#C2386E

Buttons, links and anything people tap. Passes contrast on cream and white.

Cocoa#915B3D

The cone, the word cookies, secondary buttons.

Dark Cocoa#3A2216

Headlines and body text.

Butter#FFD66B

Small accents only: award dots, a summer sign.

Cream#FFF8F1

Page background. Warmer than white, like a waffle cone.

Type

Both are free Google Fonts, so they work on the website, in Canva and in Google Docs.

Cool Mint Cookie

Fraunces, bold, "soft" setting. Headlines, flavor names, signs.

Our mint ice cream with chocolate covered mint cookie balls, Andes mints, and a chocolate cookie fudge swirl.

Figtree, regular and semibold. Everything else.

How we sound

Friendly, plain and a little playful, like the person behind the counter. Short sentences. Real flavor names. Practical help, like where the door is.

"Our door is around back. If you can smell pizza, you're close."

Files

With the finished site you'd get the logo as SVG and PNG (full color, white, and cone-only), plus this guide with the colors and fonts above.
