Purpose & Function

Cheese Resipes Chateau_011.jpg

The function of the Baumert Cream Cheese cookbooklet is to advertise their product by sparking interest in consumers by displaying recipes they can follow. The booklet also introduces us to a “Chateau Family” which is most likely an advertising technique targeted towards family oriented people. This strategy seems to also be trying to create a recognition towards these characters, so that when a consumer sees those icons they immediately know what brand they are buying.

It has another purpose - to inform consumers on more about the company. The cookbooklet has a paragraph on the back notifies buyers that the Cheatau Cheese Company was created in Ottawa, ON, Canada and is a division of the Borden Company. It really targets towards housewives in this blurb about the products "standards".
