New logo: Lyons Cakes
Lyons is a British brand for cakes and biscuits that traces its roots to a chain of tea shops, first opened in 1894.

The two companies used somewhat similar, but different, designs until recently, when a completely new look for Lyons cakes was unveiled, created by JKR. They were also behind a new design for Mr. Kipling, another cake brand owned by Premier Foods.
