BRANDING case study Legacy-Cuisine

At A Glance

Legacy Cuisine is an online food kit company that offers premium and traditional DIY kits that use authentic Italian ingredients to make unique foods and snacks.

There are DIY kits for making just about anything, but how many of them use traditional and custom sourced ingredients to create an authentic product and truly unique experience? Give up? None.

Memories. That’s why Legacy Cuisine was dreamt up. The memories we share when making something from scratch. The laughing, playing, and smiling that come from working together. Families grow up so fast and every moment they spend together creates their own legacy. A tradition that can be passed down from generation to generation. Legacy Cuisine believes in not just helping you make memories but helping you make memories that you’ll share.

The Challenge

The Solution

Create a brand that can capture the feel of a modern online food ordering company while keeping a traditional bespoke feel with a human element.

The Results

The brand for Legacy Cuisine is reminiscent of a classic recipe card you may find in Grandma’s kitchen. The classic “From the Kitchen of” message makes us think about family recipes that were shared through the generations. “Legacy Cuisine” is handwritten and slightly flawed giving it a truly bespoke feel that can only be achieved with a person’s unique signature. The tagline “Add a Pinch of Tradition” pays homage to the authentic ingredients that comprise each of the kits. It is also meant to encourage families to make this memory theirs and start a new tradition.

The challenge of making an idea a reality is what I look forward to at Zen Agency. Sitting down with Legacy Cuisine and surrounding myself with their vision for their new company really influenced the branding process. A homemade, friendly brand that’s legendary is just the beginning for this new product.
