What do you find interesting about the idea?From the photos used in this idea it makes the recipes seem more creative so the recipe card will be bright and colourful.

make recipe cards for a veggie Chinese, people may be very interested.

Idea 3 Healthy Snacks All different types of colours- try to stick to exciting colours to grab peoples

attention. Most snack foods are full of calories, fat or meat. The Snack recipe cards I will be

creating will be healthy and vegetarian for those that do not like meat or calories. This is most likely to be diet food.

It will include fruits, rice, corn and vegetables.

Idea 4 Pie and Peas! Different types of vegetarian pies- Indian, Chinese, Italian. The pies will be made

with thick pastry and deeply filled in all kinds of vegetarians favourite dishes. I chose this idea because it is much different to anything before. I think this is a

great dish for veggies as it is out of the ordinary.

Summary of FeedbackWhat do you agree with from your feedback?I agree with the feedback where I am being told that I could of explained what I will be doing with recipe cards and how they will be represented. For example, embossed, laminated, or the die cut technique. As my feedback partner has stated, most people, especially children, like desserts. Therefore this is another statement I agree on. They say that they like this idea is people will be interested, I think this too.I also think that the images I used help the ideas because it made the feedback partner understand how I wanted the recipe’s to be. The partner stated that they like the sound of it and like how colourful the recipe will turn out like, this is also what I like about it.What was also said was, how they liked that I had chose to make a recipe for a veggie Chinese dish. This is not ordinary and people wouldn’t usually think to create this, which is why I chose to do it.I agree with my partner when they said that I should have thought about my target audiences because when I was creating these ideas.

Summary of FeedbackWhat do you disagree with from your feedback?I disagree with my partner when they say that specific ideas

are easy to do, because it will not be that easy as finding toppings

for pizzas which are also vegetarian could get very difficult as only several things could actually work and apathies people.

Idea EvaluationWhich idea that you came up with is your favourite and why?My favourite idea was idea 5 –pizza. However I like idea 1 –desserts. I like idea 5 because nobody has thought of anything like this. It could be a very exciting topic, however it could get quite tricky when finding toppings to fit nicely on to the pizza. Another risk with this idea would be finding pizzas to appetise people as for example, broccoli as a topping may make people feel a bit sick, where as sweet corn could be somebody’s favourite.

Which idea, that your team came up with, is your favourite and why?
