Filed under Stuff You Need to Know: I'm rearranging our catalog to make it easier to use both for you and for us. That means you'll see some small changes in our categories over the coming weeks, which will be very annoying for anyone who bookmarked the pages or follows an old link from a search engine. You'll get our home page instead of the page you expected. Check the links on the right and you should be able to find what you want (or else I should be fired). I'll also post updates here at the BakeryBlog whenever a change is made.
This week, say goodbye to Celebration Specialty Desserts and hello to Birthday Specialties. The new page has double the number of products the old page had--four instead of two!
That's not terribly exciting, but I think you'll love those two new products, a Blue Birthday Cookie and Pink Birthday Cookie from our friends at Supercookie. These are a terrific alternative to birthday cake or a great gift to send someone who already has a cake. Please send those bandits with the cookie bouquets a message by ordering these.
As for the why behind the catalog shuffling, there's two reasons. First, we don't organize our products by manufacturer in our back end, which means I have to spend a lot of time hunting things down to make changes. Our Bakery List makes it much easier for customers to find products than it is for us to find them.
Second, I'm unhappy with the current catalog organization. I doubt that Chocolate Dipped Strawberries and Gift Baskets warrant their own categories, and Shop by Price becomes irrelevant when you add on the shipping charges.
I'm in "Read the customers' minds" mode to figure out what all of the new categories will be. If you've got some thoughts, I'd love to hear them.
