I haven’t posted on Logo Designer Blog for a while (due to a rather full schedule) but when I saw this, I just had to share.
The National Basketball Association thinks it has figured out what fans are hungry for besides a championship: edible team logos. The league recently signed unusual licensing deals with companies that offer these edible items – and more. The pizza logos, made of sugar, starch and food coloring, will add about $5 to the price of a pizza. Via USA Today.
So, hot or not?

I dunno, while I think there’s a small chance that fans will “eat this up”, the idea of eating a logo doesn’t seem appealing at all. I think our brains won’t be able to get past the feeling of eating “ink”. I know people do it with cakes already, but pizza this seems like an awkward fit.

I thought it was clever until I read that there’s a $5 charge to look at someone else’s promo. That’s a bit much!
June 15th, 2010 at 10:55 AM
good idea.. :D
June 23rd, 2010 at 4:32 PM
This isn’t anything new really, They have been putting logos and photos on cakes for years now, it was only a matter of time before they moved on to other foods.
July 11th, 2010 at 12:34 AM
I can not eat this, It actually makes me sick.
July 18th, 2010 at 5:17 AM
I can’t see it taking off really, surely people prefer their food to actually look like food?
July 22nd, 2010 at 6:30 AM
wow . . i think i can’t eat that
but i like the logo :)
July 22nd, 2010 at 8:02 PM
not quite bad)
July 22nd, 2010 at 8:03 PM
Interesting idea!
August 1st, 2010 at 4:19 AM
I don’t think I could bring my self to eat a logo… even if it was on a pizza :)
September 30th, 2010 at 5:36 PM
where do you get the idea? I wish to eat the logo but like behzad said
October 5th, 2010 at 1:48 PM
I dunno… if the logos were more… integrated (using colours more befitting a pizza, like orange, yellow, red, etc…) it wouldn’t be so bad. The full-colour version seems a bit unappetizing, though, despite it being flavourless.
October 16th, 2010 at 2:01 AM
Nice logo with interesting perception :) Still like it although I’m not a pizza addict
October 26th, 2010 at 5:43 PM
I’ve said in the past that I ‘eat and sleep’ logo design but I don’t think I’ve ever actually eaten a logo (does the ‘M’ on M&Ms count?). The logo itself isn’t to my taste so I’ll wait until there’s a different flavour.
November 7th, 2010 at 7:37 PM
Interesting idea, however not so effective I’d think.
November 25th, 2010 at 12:03 AM
Good stuff, I like it.
November 27th, 2010 at 5:23 AM
If i ate the Knicks one i’m sure i would get an old injured pizza, indigestion, and not make the playoffs for 9 years. 5 extra bucks would just encourage those bums. (can you tell i’m from New York ?)
December 18th, 2010 at 9:26 AM
It’s been done on cakes for years. I don’t think it would work on a meat lovers pizza!
December 30th, 2010 at 3:55 AM
From a branding point of view I like it, don’t think I would add it to my pizza though!
January 2nd, 2011 at 9:52 PM
Great idea, I like it.
Good luck :)
January 12th, 2011 at 8:12 AM
I like it.
February 10th, 2011 at 5:05 PM
wew…
nice! I like it!
February 19th, 2011 at 8:11 AM
How would something made of sugar taste good on a pizza? Weird combination.
February 26th, 2011 at 1:01 AM
it is simple but quite meaning full!
April 15th, 2011 at 12:35 PM
After looking at your pizza …
I’m order PIZZA this evening … Hmmm !!!

I like your pizza logo , really looks good
June 20th, 2011 at 9:41 PM
What a way to turn pizza into creative look..
June 23rd, 2011 at 5:30 AM
I think its a good idea. Could be a great way to advertise your company!
June 25th, 2011 at 11:59 AM
There are no 2011 posts… What a pitty!
July 3rd, 2011 at 12:45 AM
THis is a great article where are the 2011 post ?
July 8th, 2011 at 1:44 AM
Very cool article! Pizza’s image is very creative and nice for a logo.
July 15th, 2011 at 5:31 PM
Yummy article, well this will be a good initiative for a logo. i thing this should be apply soon.
July 19th, 2011 at 12:56 AM
Nice idea but it doesn’t really appeal to me when it is done in such an artificial way. Edible logos are much better when they are done with ingredients that people recognize. A logos on the top of a Latte is something that works well.
July 22nd, 2011 at 11:38 AM
What’s this? T-shirt printing with pizza?
July 27th, 2011 at 9:52 PM
Interesting idea, very imaginative
August 12th, 2011 at 8:24 PM
That’s one of the smartest ways to think, pizza and logo, wow :)
August 18th, 2011 at 3:38 AM
Interesting! I love eating pizza in my every meal..and the logo in the page made me crave for a pizza now…but do you think people will love to ear pizza with a colorful logo on it..
August 18th, 2011 at 7:56 PM
great picture and logo, boston picture on the pizza? its make me hungry so much.
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:35 PM
Damn, I would not want to have that pizza put in front of me. Advertising reaches into our lives so much, I don’t want it on my food.
September 5th, 2011 at 11:56 PM
I didn’t find this idea practical enough for usage. I agree with @Sam in this regard.
October 4th, 2011 at 1:22 AM
what an idea!
October 5th, 2011 at 2:00 PM
Hmmm… Not sure.
I would certainly be up for trying one, but not keen on the price rise!
Whatever sells I guess… as long as the novalty doesnt wear off!
Good luck to them!
October 19th, 2011 at 8:44 PM
I love that idea – not sure it would work for business cards though. It would be like handing out branded coookies with your phone number on them :)
October 31st, 2011 at 8:02 PM
Interesting deal :) the logo looks quite good.
November 18th, 2011 at 5:35 AM
Ha, this is awesome!
November 19th, 2011 at 4:28 AM
Very interesting, cool one.
November 22nd, 2011 at 7:54 PM
Looks dainty. So the team supporters will have the one with their own team logo or the one with their rivals’?!
November 27th, 2011 at 4:42 PM
i’m hungry look that logo
nice work though.
December 11th, 2011 at 5:18 AM
Testy concept, i like it.
January 11th, 2012 at 3:26 AM
This is another great way to advertise your company.I love your idea
January 18th, 2012 at 10:32 PM
It’s been a while – any new posts in the pipeline? I’ve always enjoyed your blog Jacob.
January 31st, 2012 at 9:37 PM
Perfect Logos !!!
January 31st, 2012 at 9:40 PM
Intresting logo’s i like it.:)
February 2nd, 2012 at 11:34 PM
It’s really different logo and nice idea.I like it .But I can’t eat
