Pies & Cobblers<br />
Burgers and Sandwich Carriers<br />
Comfort foods have made a big comeback on foodservice menus,<br />
and few things are as comforting as a dessert that looks and tastes<br />
just like Mom used to make. These cobblers and pies are made with<br />
the ripest fruits, creamiest fillings, crumbliest toppings, and flakiest<br />
crusts to deliver Mom-worthy goodness with every bite.<br />
Among the most loved comfort foods are pies and cobblers, and as<br />
consumers look for comfort, a number of classic flavors are growing<br />
more common on menus, such as pumpkin pie, pecan pie, peach pie,<br />
coconut cream, and lemon meringue. In addition, pies are no longer<br />
served with just vanilla ice cream but with vanilla bean ice cream or<br />
upscale signature sauces and liqueurs.<br />
Not surprisingly, the iconic apple pie continues to rank No. 1 among<br />
pie flavors. Variations on the classic include caramel apple and Dutch<br />
apple.<br />
A number of tropical-inspired pies are becoming more popular, and Key<br />
lime pie has surpassed chocolate and moved to the No. 2 spot.<br />
Southern classics remain important pie flavors, including pecan, sweet<br />
potato, and peach. Indulgent flavors, such as chocolate, peanut<br />
butter, Oreo, and French silk also remain popular.<br />
Pies are getting an upscale touch as menus begin to specify<br />
what ingredients are being used. Apple pies are being made<br />
into apple tarts or the type of fruit is being specified, such as<br />
Granny Smith apples.<br />

Cheesecakes<br />
Cheesecakes are notoriously difficult to make from scratch.<br />
That’s great news for you—because people go to restaurants to<br />
get something they can’t easily get at home. We offer a wide range<br />
of melt-in-your-mouth cheesecake varieties, from classic New Yorkstyle<br />
to assorted specialty flavors, all ready to serve in just minutes.<br />
Classic cheesecake appeals to the greatest number of restaurant<br />
patrons. In fact, it’s offered in nearly a quarter of all restaurants.<br />
Other popular flavors are strawberry, chocolate, and raspberry.<br />
Cheesecakes are a great way to bring variation to the dessert menu<br />
with seasonal flavors such as pumpkin. They also are excellent<br />
building blocks for signature desserts. By adding a berry drizzle<br />
or sauce, you can create customized offerings.<br />
While cheesecakes made with cream cheese continue to dominate<br />
menus, consumer appetite for lighter choices is bringing increased<br />
demand for those made with ricotta.<br />
Latin American flavors, such as mango and dulce de leche, are now<br />
flavoring cheesecake. Popular desserts, including Key lime pie<br />
and crème brûlée, are being converted to cheesecake flavors.<br />
Like other desserts, cheesecakes are catering to the most indulgent<br />
tastes, with liqueur flavors such as amaretto, and upscale chocolate<br />
cheesecakes including white chocolate, chocolate chip, and<br />
chocolate raspberry.<br />

Mini Desserts and Cupcakes<br />
A natural extension of the shared-plate megatrend, these tiny treats<br />
will reinvigorate your dessert menu. And no wonder—they provide<br />
sweet satisfaction at a price you and your customers will love. In fact,<br />
40 percent of consumers strongly prefer the option of reduced-price<br />
mini desserts or half-portion desserts.<br />
Minis offer a bit of indulgence for consumers who are re-evaluating<br />
their definition of value when they dine out. They are a great option for<br />
patrons who are watching their calories, and they appeal to everyone,<br />
including those who feel too full for a regular-sized dessert.<br />
You can also combine these mini cakes, cheesecakes, cupcakes, and<br />
more into profit-rich dessert samplers, to tempt consumers who want<br />
a taste of everything. Many of these small-sized items are portable,<br />
aligning with the growing demand for hand-held, on-the-go snacks.<br />
Mini desserts make it easy to offer a full portfolio of irresistible desserts<br />
for all your patrons. To keep your menu fresh, set up a rotating LTO<br />
program with mini desserts that have seasonal appeal.<br />
With the mini-dessert trend, there’s a proliferation of shareable, upsized<br />
dessert options, such as platters or samplers. These items leverage<br />
the social aspects of dessert, appeal to larger dining parties, and are<br />
perfect for special occasions. Family-style dessert offerings allow you to<br />
emphasize variety by showcasing the best of the dessert lineup in one<br />
decadent presentation.<br />
Shareable samplers also fit the bill in terms of value—for a fraction of the<br />
cost of a full dessert for each person, everyone is allowed to sample a bit<br />
of one or several desserts.<br />
Two out of five consumers say they enjoy sharing desserts; one out of five<br />
say they enjoy ordering dessert platters when dining with a group.<br />
The bonus? It’s highly likely that guests who particularly enjoyed an item<br />
from a dessert sampler will return for a full-sized version of the treat on a<br />
future dining occasion.<br />

Cakes<br />
Cakes are the go-to goodies for celebrating special occasions, of<br />
course—but they’re also a popular everyday after-dinner treat. From<br />
ready-to-customize pound cakes to ready-to-dazzle red velvet cakes,<br />
from simple sheet cakes to elaborate layer cakes, we have solutions to<br />
enhance your flexibility, creativity, and image.<br />
Cake is the perfect way to add chocolate to the dessert menu.<br />
In fact, the top cake flavor overall is chocolate, with two-thirds of all<br />
restaurants offering at least one cake with chocolate flavoring.<br />
The second-most-popular cake that appeals to patrons is carrot cake,<br />
found on about one-fourth of restaurant dessert menus.<br />
Notably, yellow, vanilla, and plain cakes have relatively low<br />
penetration. These types of cake flavors are typically the foundation<br />
or building block for a more decadent build that includes sauces<br />
and drizzles.<br />
The comfort food trend affects cakes as well—classics, such as red<br />
velvet, pumpkin, cinnamon, banana, and cream cheese, are the<br />
top-growing cake flavor profiles.<br />
More upscale and indulgent chocolates are impacting the cake<br />
dessert category. White chocolate mousse, flourless chocolate,<br />
lava cake, dark chocolate, ganache, and milk chocolate are the<br />
top-growing cake flavors.<br />
In response to consumers’ interest in coffee, mocha, and espresso,<br />
as well as liqueur flavors (Grand Marnier), are growing.<br />

Limited Time Offer Menus by LTO Direct <br />
Did you know…<br />
• A tabletop promotion can have even more impact than a menu<br />
listing—it’s the first message patrons see when they come to the<br />
table. Make sure they start thinking about dessert as soon as they<br />
sit down!<br />
• Patrons spend more time perusing a tabletop promotion than<br />
any other restaurant message except the menu itself.<br />
• Dining patrons are highly suggestible—a tantalizing headline and<br />
tempting photo prominently displayed on the tabletop can sway<br />
purchasing decisions.<br />
What does this mean to you?<br />
Tabletop menus are an effective way to grab customers’ attention and<br />
push specials, high-profit items, and add-ons. Desserts are a perfect<br />
fit for tabletop promotions!
