D · Data

Product: warm ciambelle. Time: 16:30. Price: €2.00. Owner: Chef Gaetano. Assets: 5 story images and one Italian flyer PDF.

A · Analytic

The value of this dessert is not complexity. It is lightness, fragrance, visual appeal, story and speed of service. The circular form also fits the symbolic language of Fantastic Garden.

R · Result

If guests buy it, photograph it and respond positively within 24-48 hours, the ciambella can enter the dessert list for afternoon tea, pool moments, birthdays, weddings and corporate dinners.
