Replace or supplement standard case lighting with high-CRI (95+) LED strips positioned to illuminate product faces without harsh shadows or heat. Proper color temperature makes baked goods glow.
Medium
Mid-Range
Approach Detail
Install LED strips (CRI 95+, 2700-3000K) at front top of case angled back, and optionally at each shelf front lip. Avoid direct view—light should hit products, not customers' eyes. Target 400-600 lux on product face. LED strips generate minimal heat compared to halogen.
Key Fixtures
High-CRI LED strip light (95+ CRI), aluminum channel extrusion with lens, low-voltage LED drivers, optional shelf-front extrusions.
Designer Notes
Render close-up of pastry case with croissants and tarts. Show how lighting makes golden-brown surfaces glow. Include slight condensation on case glass catching light. Avoid hotspots or visible fixtures.
Best For
Bakery-cafés, patisseries, any café with significant food display component.
