Bacon-Only Bakeries

The Baconery Restaurant Focuses on Pork-Centric Confections

— April 7, 2012 — Lifestyle
Wesley Klein’s ‘Baconery’ bakery operates under the very theme that its name implies: bacon everything. Inspired by the marvelous salty-sweet taste produced by the merger of bacon with syrup, Klein decided to further exploit the combination, and to generously sell his unreal and atypical treats to the public.

While the merger of bacon with gourmet eats is a prominent theme within the food industry, few have mastered a pork motif where desserts are concerned. At the Baconery, which abides by the adorable slogan "Life is Just Better with Bacon," the chefs have managed to merge salty slabs of meat with cookies, chocolate, muffins and brownies. This mixture of a briny taste with a confectionery motif is no doubt pioneering a new foodie niche, and will certainly attract a great deal of attention from the adventurous taste tester.
Trend Themes
1. Bacon-centric Desserts - The trend of incorporating bacon into desserts is gaining popularity as Baconery demonstrates the successful combination of sweet and salty flavors.
2. Niche Food Market - The emergence of bacon-only bakeries shows the potential for the development of niche food markets by focusing on unique ingredients or themes.
3. Innovative Dessert Combinations - The Baconery has found success by experimenting with unconventional flavor combinations, showing that there is potential to create unique products in the dessert industry.
Industry Implications
1. Bakery - Bakeries can explore the incorporation of unusual or niche ingredients, like bacon, to stand out in the competitive food industry.
2. Confectionery - Confectionery companies can experiment with innovative flavor combinations, like salty and sweet, to create new products that appeal to adventurous customers.
3. Hospitality - Hotels and restaurants can incorporate unique and unexpected food items like bacon-centric desserts to create a memorable and differentiated customer experience.
