About Breakfast Pastry Font Family


I’d been thinking for a while about making a serif font with ball terminals: big fun round ends to the letters anywhere I can squeeze them in. So I made Breakfast Pastry! I started with a hand-drawn set of basic letters, then went hog-wild making alternates and ligatures galore with fun swirls, curls, and even more balls! I’ve cleaned the letters up significantly to make them smooth and easy for any cutting or printing you may want to do, but I’ve also left in some of the hand-drawn character so that the letters are warmer and not too formal. Then I took the first font, and made a second solid version without the cutouts. After that I thought: I tend to make plumper fonts ... why not make an even thinner version? So I did! All three versions have the same character set (over 700 glyphs total), which means they all have the same extras and alternates. All three fonts have over 300 extended Latin characters for language support, as well as over 200 bonus items: alternate letters, letters with swashes, two-letter ligatures, small caps, catchwords, and even some bonus ornaments and elements to make the fonts even more flexible. (After all, if one swash on a letter is good, two or three might be great!)

About Missy Meyer

Missy Meyer has decades of lettering and illustration under her belt; when looking to change careers in her 40s, graphic design seemed like the perfect way to go. She soon found her way into font design, and has been in love ever since. She specializes in quirky, casual, fun fonts that don't take themselves too seriously, but are still clean and easy to work with. (What did she do before design? It's been an amazing variety of jobs, including: bank teller, pizza chef, accountant, camp counselor, casino dealer, singing improv comedian, and game show host at Walt Disney World.)
