About Bittersweet Catering
Bittersweet Catering, a growing Alexandria food service business, needed a refreshed brand and digital presence to reflect its professionalism and scale. Their outdated website no longer matched their elevated offerings. Bittersweet also required a modern site with a custom ordering system, streamlined navigation, and visuals that showcased their team’s commitment to quality and versatility.

Our Strategy
KME.digital approached the Bittersweet project in two distinct phases: first refreshing the brand’s visual identity, then executing a full website redesign:
- Refreshed brand identity: A modern logo and cohesive color palette that reflected Bittersweet’s professionalism, quality, and growth.
- Improved user experience: Clear, intuitive navigation paths for both individual delivery and full-service catering customers.
- Integrated custom ordering system: Replaced a third-party menu link with a fully built-in experience, giving Bittersweet full control and reducing user friction.
- Streamlined backend functionality: Simplified content management and supported future scalability for seasonal menus, special events, and more.

BEFORE
AFTER
Integrated Ordering
Previously, Bittersweet Catering’s menu was hosted on a third-party site, creating a fragmented experience for users. With the redesign, their full menu is now seamlessly integrated into their website, providing a streamlined ordering process for users.
Service Clarification
One of Bittersweet Catering’s biggest challenges was user confusion between food delivery and full-service event catering. To solve this, we created two distinct pathways on the website—separate pages with clear messaging and navigation—so visitors could easily understand and choose the right service. This distinction reduced friction, improved the user experience, and positioned Bittersweet as both a convenient delivery option and a trusted event partner.
