OUGD505 | STUDIO BRIEF 2 | RECIPE CARDS

After receiving positive feedback from my peers, I continued creating the deliverables for this project. Included in the activity pack will be 5 recipe cards for children. As children will need help cooking, I tried to include recipes that are fun, tasty and can be made with minimal assistance. 

The 5 recipes include: 
- Bananaberry pancakes
- Tropical Smoothie
- Epic Vegan Chocolate Cake
- Finger Sandwiches
- Potato Veggie Burgers

All of these meals are vegan, and theres a balance between main meals and snacks, savoury and sweet. I showed a mockup of one of the recipe cards in my feedback:




The recipe cards feature a lot of colour to grab the attention of children and make it look fun. Each recipe card will also feature an illustration. I talked to Meg about this, and she responded a few days later with the finished illustrations! 






The illustrations really tie in well with the designs I have so far. Having a visual representation on the cards is important as a lot of text may bore children or not grab their attention. Showing them what they can make will allow them to decide whether they want to do it or not! 






As these cards will be used in the kitchen or a messy environment, the stock needs to be hardy and easy to clean. This is a consideration for the printing stage of the project.
