Rosette Café

The problem.

Café sites tend to look like every other café site, hide the menu in a PDF or a photo of the chalkboard and send customers to a third-party app to order. The goal was to show a site where customers can read the menu, build their drink and order ahead without ever leaving it.

The system.

Build the site around one path — see the favorites, read the menu, build the drink, order ahead for pickup — with every choice carried straight into the order so nothing is asked twice, and a separate cake builder for celebrations, where the design and the date matter as much as the price.

The experience.

A responsive, cinematic site with a torn-paper hero and a rail of five signature items, a full menu with animated tabs, dietary filters and details for every item, a Build Your Drink tool where an animated cup fills layer by layer and draws latte art while it suggests a pastry and shows a live price, an add-to-order that flies items into a live summary with undo, a four-step Order Ahead pickup that ends with a calendar file, a cake builder with an animated cake, a live estimate and a 30% deposit, and a Visit section with a live Miami clock, an open or closed status and an illustrated walking map — built as a working concept rather than a mockup.

The outcome.
