The intention behind the Potent Pastries logo was to convey the exceptional quality of the desserts and emphasize that it is a dessert-focused company. This was achieved by incorporating a vibrant color splash in the background of the logo to symbolize the potent and delicious flavors of the desserts. Additionally, the company's dessert specialization was highlighted by replacing the "O" in "Potent" with a mixing bowl. Despite its simplicity, this adjustment is remarkably effective and visually appealing.
